Thanks for the comment. While browsing through videos, I stumbled upon some captivating footage that truly encapsulates the immense pressure experienced by tennis players prior to their first-round matches. As I delved deeper into the footage, I realized that the stress depicted isn't exclusive to professional tennis players alone, but extends across all levels of the sport. Whether you're an aspiring junior player stepping onto the court for your first tournament or a seasoned veteran participating in a local club match, the underlying anxieties and nerves are remarkably similar.

Sometimes I can read their serve by their prep and toss location. But good servers can pronate last second to disguise. My serve is sht lol, fast and all but need more efficiency.
@JustImproveYourGame Жыл бұрын
Thanks for you comment. The art of reading the tennis serve toss has evolved significantly over time. Nowadays, it has become more complex due to the various types of tosses employed by players. Additionally, the decline in dedicated practice has led to a lack of consistency in the toss, causing it to be unpredictable. Many contemporary players find themselves constantly chasing after the toss, attempting to catch it before executing their serve. In contrast, in the past, junior players used to diligently practice tossing the ball with their racket positioned near their feet, striving to achieve consistent landings on the racket.

@JustImproveYourGame Жыл бұрын
Thanks for your question. Certain tennis players opt to refrain from changing direction and, instead, employ a strategic approach of utilizing pace to provoke errors from their opponents. This tactic is commonly referred to as "Hitting through you," indicating their intention to generate mistakes by overwhelming their opponents with powerful shots.

Thanks for your comment. Your opponent is not as technically sound as you are, making them a less proficient tennis player. Despite this, you choose to adopt a game plan centered around consistent and calculated tennis. You prioritize playing a high-percentage game, making the most of any openings that present themselves. While you are aware of their weaknesses, you strategically exploit them only when necessary.

@JustImproveYourGame Жыл бұрын
Thanks for you comment. Additionally, another aspect of the strategy involves creating conditions that allow the tennis player to "beat themselves." By applying pressure, maintaining consistency, and strategically exploiting their weaknesses, you can prompt errors and unforced mistakes from the player. This method capitalizes on their frustrations, inducing impulsive and ill-advised shot selection, ultimately undermining their overall game and providing you with further opportunities to gain an advantage in the match.

Absolute nonsense, this is like saying ''what makes this meal taste good is the snack you ate 2 hours ago''. If you play a dropshot while having an offensive advantage, that doesn't make the dropshot great, it makes your DECISION to play a dropshot great, but you still have a chance of fucking it up. The timing of the dropshot does not affect its quality. What really makes a great dropshot is a combination of alot of details. The amount of backspin, the height, the depth, the disguise (fake preparation), there's many ways to be succesful with it. For example with Alcaraz, the 2 reasons why he's succesful with it is because of a great disguise and perfect timing. He mostly does it when he already has an advantage in the point and is already inside the court. But these reasons don't make the dropshot itself good, it makes the decision to play a dropshot good. The quality of Alcaraz's dropshots is not impressive at all. They often pass one meter above the net, while landing far from the net. They also have very low spin, which makes them bounce forward. There is alot of players who can do it better than him in many possible ways. Federer for example likes to put alot of height so that it lands closer to the net and alot of backspin so that it comes back towards the net or even over the net. Rune likes to play them from 1 meter behind the baseline, but they pass 6 inches above the net, with enough backspin to make it stay at the same length after the first bounce, so the opponent doesn't have enough time reach it. These guys can truly hit great dropshots, the quality is so good that the shot before doesn't even matter.
@JustImproveYourGame Жыл бұрын
Thanks for your response, the view I put obviously got you thinking. Your response is what I also get from my kids, they also don't see a drop shot as a offensive play. If you can think of tennis like chess, every play has to planned. If you can put a drop shot in the same bracket as say a forehand winner, it's all about the set shot before. You don't have to hit your forehand close to the lines to win the point with a good setup, Likewise a drop shot doesn't even have to be that good to win the point.
@ManBearPig14 Жыл бұрын
@@JustImproveYourGame I never said a dropshot is not offensive, you need to read my comment again. It is also impossible to plan every single shot, since sometimes you will be surprised by the shot of the opponent, and also the quality or type of shot, not just where it is going. Again, no matter what shot you played before, it is ALWAYS possible to hit a forehand winner out of nowhere. We have seen it many times for example in the Marozsan - Alcaraz match. Yes, the shot before might give you an advantage, which will help you finish the rally. But it is very far from being necessary.
@ManBearPig14 Жыл бұрын
@@JustImproveYourGame You should watch the Rome highlights of today, both matches prove you wrong. You can see Djokovic and Rune use the dropshot out of nowhere and win the point, while Ruud tries to do it while having an advantage and STILL lose the point because the quality of his dropshots is extremely bad.
@JustImproveYourGame Жыл бұрын
Thanks for your comment. I show Alcaraz, Federer, and a lot of top pros. Not sure if you are a fan or tennis player, but it is very possible plan. At the top level players have a lot of information on opponents, I know for a fact that some top 10 players go as far as hiring videographers to tape match's and have other coaches that you don't see in the player boxes watch put together a report so a game plan can be made. What I'm saying at the top level sometimes they know what you will do if he or she hit's to a spot, it a matter of execution at that level. If you watch tennis at the lower levels you'll see better hitters then Alcaraz, I always told my kids when you play ITF 15k's You'll see amazing tennis players, what keeps them there is a lack of understanding, drop shots for example are all to often in the net or get them into trouble. It's possible to do everything the top players do without the information. Read what's happening, I played in the serve and volley era. Within the first game I would know 7 out of 10 times what your return tendencies are, and would adjust my game. You can do the same if you prod here and there. But thanks for your comments, I am just trying to support my kids if it helps you great.

A great dropshot is a dropshot at the right moment : the opponent far away, going in the opposite direction. Great shotmakers like federer or alcaraz read their opponent movement and placement and use it when they are in a bad position Of course, you add to that a well enough execution so it won't come bak or you get an easy ball (short and on the side is usually the best)
@JustImproveYourGame Жыл бұрын
Thanks for your response. Why some players are successful with the drop shop more then others is quite simple. In tennis the point is over when the ball bounces twice, it does not matter what the shot is or how hard it's hit. One sets up the dropshot the same way as you would setup a backhand down the line. The backhand down the line would not be effective if the shot before didn't open it up.
