I see you're not playing in the tournament this weekend at Mayfair...to bad would have liked to see you play!

I was planning on it, but I've had a couple of niggles recently, and the coaching load has been very high, so I decided to bow out unfortunately. Are you playing? - Ahad

Excellent video. I see that you hold your racket at the bottom of the grip. My *personal* feeling is that I get much better touch (i.e feeling fingers and strings) when holding it roughly in the middle. Do you hit all your shots with this grip, or do you move it up and down (lift from the back, etc..) ?

You are correct! You will generally get better feel holding the racquet in the middle, or even higher up! A lot depends on the weight and feel of the racquet. Personally I mostly hold it at the bottom, and occasionally shift it up (eg. When under pressure in the back corners). I also adjust the angle of the face, my wrist etc depending on circumstances as well :) I hope this helps! - Ahad

When you solo, are you playing double yellow or do you go down to a single yellow?

I use a double yellow dot ball. Sometimes with my beginner students I switch to a blue dot when teaching certain skills though. Depending on what you're learning etc, there's definitely a case for using a different ball 👊🏼 - Ahad
