Hitting without good placement is sloppy tennis and will get you in trouble against the better players.
If you are a power player who likes to hit the ball hard and does not care where the ball lands, take heed! Slow down, learn proper placement and technique, and let your power follow #tacticalgame#knowhow#tennis#gamesetmatch
Everyone coaches Simon and Alex here with tops and training. In this video, we're going to teach you the top five ways to win a point in tennis. Number one is the wall. When the wall is a player that doesn't miss, you want to be more consistent than your opponent. You're looking to hit the ball with nice height, so you're taking out the net from the equation. You want to hit within the lines. You're giving yourself big margins for error on the other side, so you're not gonna hit it wide or deep. And you're also willing to work hard with your legs. You're willing to stay in those long rallies and outlast your opponent. You're the wall that doesn't make any mistakes. The best place to aim would be cross court. You've got a longer court to aim into because the diagonal is always longer than the straight you're aiming. Over the lower part of the net and you also don't have to recover, so you don't have to run as far away as if you go down the line. So a good wall player is gonna hit the ball cross court. Ohh, this guy never misses. There's no shame in losing to the war, so there I was prepared to go cross score for as long as it takes and the crosscourt always makes the player move side to side. I'm hoping they're going to hit the ball line. I want them to hit the ball lines so they can catch them again on that cross core, make them move and really feel like I'm not going to miss anything here. Make yourself really, really difficult to beat. Ohh. And if you're prepared to work hard, prepare to stay in those long rallies. You can really frustrate your opponent into some mistakes. And once those mistakes coming and they stop believing that they cannot last you, you can start winning a lot more points. They lose their confidence and you're already up ahead in the match #2 The Punisher. This is normally someone who likes to exploit the weaker side of the opponent. In general, this will be of course the back end by hitting different varieties with my shot. Now when I start the match, I'm trying to find that weakness and then I'm looking to exploit it throughout the entire match. I can also punish someone off their serve. If they're hitting a weak second serve, I can step in and punish it. I can also punish someone off my surf. If I'm hitting a good surf and they don't hit a good return, I can then step in and start to punish them. Right away. Now, if you want to win more singles matches, make sure you download our free PDF. We'll leave the link under this video. Ohh. Now I'm willing to go into that corner time and time again until he can do something better than that last shot. If he can do anything better, I'm going to keep exploiting that side and win the point. Now when I see him starting to stay on that side, anticipating that shot, I'll then go into the space to exploit it #3 the dominator. But this is a player that's gonna take balls on. They're gonna make the other player run, they're gonna hit into space, they're gonna drop shots. You can hit with power, you can take time away. All these ways of making their opponents suffer and dominating play, It's in the name. I'm going to try and take it on and I'm going to make him crumble and really impose myself on that tennis court. Yeah. Now, as a dominator, it's important that you're looking for that sure ball. Because I'm playing more aggressive, I'm trying to hit into space. I'm looking for that short ball to come a little bit lower, bit a bit slower, something I can attack. I don't want to be caught off by surprise. This is my game and I'm looking for that ball. Ohh. That relentless hitting side to side, full power going for it. Aggressive plate. Ohh. Now you can also be aggressive with precision, so that could be a drop shot. The angles use all those tools at your disposal. It doesn't just mean hit the ball hard. I can hit the ball hard. I can take time away from him, so I can take the ball on the right, or I can do that precision hit a drop shot. Now the dominator also takes time away from the opponent, so coming into net, following it into the net after you good shot, not allowing the the the wall to get the ball back and make the rally even again. I'm taking the ball out of the air. Could be a dry volley, could this. Could be a smash, could be a volley, Could be a ball that you're just hitting on the rise as you make that approach. All those tools again at your disposal #4 the finisher. This is someone who likes to take the ball on and get to the net and try to finish the point with the volley. Now I can do this offshore balls. In which case I need to make sure that I'm keeping a good length for myself, hitting very deep and hopefully getting that short of all from my opponent. As you saw there, I can also finish it by coming in with the slice. It doesn't have to be a drive, I can also do this off a second serve. I can chip and charge or hit that return and get to net. And I can also serve and volley myself. Now the finisher is a great way to counter someone who is a wall or someone who likes to dominate, because if you're coming to the net, they don't have that option. And lastly, the tactician. The dictation knows exactly what they're going to do during the point, so you want to construct the point in order to make it very difficult for your opponent to win it. So that means using set place, I'm going to try and serve into a certain position and hit my first shot into a certain position. I'm hoping, well, you know, I can have a few different set plays where if the return comes to one side, I can hit it that side, if it comes to the other side, I can hit it that side. You can work on specific set plays. So for example, right now I'm gonna work on hitting the ball out wide. So I'm looking for a wide serve creating space. To the back end, hitting into that side and then either following it in if my shot was good enough, and if not, I'm going to stay back in the rally. Now a tactician uses awkward shots to make it very difficult for the opponent to attack. That means I might slice it, I might mix up pace, mix up tempo, I could roll a really high spinning one in. Anything you can do to stop your opponent from attacking and making the point be played on your terms. So let's look at that first set. Play, serve out wide hit into open space. Now the technician can turn into the finisher, can turn into the Dominator, can turn into the wall at any point in the rally. So you could defend with a slice and make it awkward for your opponent. But just like there you could also come in and finish that point off. You're being tactically aware the next set player is hitting a serve into the opponents weakness, their backhand, then looking for your strength. So I'm looking for my forehand. To hit the next ball again into that weakness, hopefully either winning the point from there or forcing a shorter ball that I can attack and hopefully become the finisher of the net. And there I was, happy to dominate with my forehand. I've hit my serve into the weakness. I've gone again into the weakness, and if the ball hasn't come in well enough, hasn't come in good enough, I can keep going back there forcing play. And obviously there came forward as well, which forced him to try and hire, you know, passing shots so you can actually really expose your opponents. Weaknesses and made them play in a way that they are perhaps not used to playing. So dominating, you're forcing them to become the wall. And if they haven't done that, if they're not fit enough, if they're not running for balls enough, if they're not good defensively, you're going to win the point more often than not. Now of course, you can repeat both of those set plays on the other side, So on the AD side where you serve out wide head into space, obviously you're going to be hitting into the forehand this time. So you know you might need to change your where you serve into out wide and then go back. Kind back into the opponents weakness, but you can play around with all the different set plays and it's something that we cover more of in our course and our Tactics Revolution course on our website.

TENNIS TIP: A SHORT COMPACT BACKSWING WILL HANDLE BIG SERVES.
It’s best to take a big server early so shorten up your back swing step inside the cour and redirect the ball.
This way the ball will get to them quicker and open up the court for you for the next shot.

MOST IMPORTANT POSITION IN TENNIS SERVE!
Loading, trophy, power positions – whatever you want to call it, make sure you get it right in your serve.
An excellent way to check if you’ve loaded properly is by looking at your hip line. It should follow the line of your shoulders, not be parallel to the court.
Serving is all about loading and releasing energy, so make sure you store as much energy as possible for the best serve!

Tennis tip: Changing speeds can create opportunities.
-
Variation can create many opportunities. You see in this point where the ball is elevated with a cross court slice at a slower speed. This makes the opponent hesitate just enough for the next ball to be hit hard and flat up the line. The change of speed creates the opening because the opponent is only slightly behind the tempo.
-
It only takes a small change in speed to make a big difference. So use the slice, flat ball and top spin to keep the opponent off balance.
-
Good luck.
