Tennis Return of Serve Lesson - 3 Tips To Transform Your Return.
The return of serve in tennis is the second most important shot in the game after the tennis serve itself. In singles you will start 50% of all the points you play with a return of serve, so it's vital that you master this element of your game.
Some of the common errors we see tennis players make on the return of serve are - they are not ready for the return and don't use a split step or mistime the split step.
They use too big of a backswing which causes them to hit the return of serve late and on side of their body.
They don't recover after the return itself and get caught out in a bad position on the court.
In this brand new video lesson Top Tennis Training coaches Simon Konov and Alex Slabinksy will help you improve your return of serve using three simple tennis tips.
The three tips are:
1. Use a well timed split step to allow yourself the best chance to move in any direction for the return of serve. Use the outer leg to load up in an open stance to then jump into the return.
2. Shorten the backswing on the return of serve so you are able to make contact with the tennis ball out in front of your body, think catch the ball instead of swing at the ball.
3. Recover into a good position on the court, ready for your opponents next strike of the ball. Using the correct footwork patterns will help you get back into position much quicker.
