Not do I only play high over the net, I play high over the line too 😂

My take away is that I'm very stupid because I'm hitting the net a lot....

Thanks for this video Patrick! This is one of the things that my coach usually emphasizes a lot during training. Both this and accelerating have a huge potential to allow us to actually play safer balls. For someone who used to play very flat like me, this is great.

If only I could execute that topspin….that is what allows me to hit high over the net!

Been playing tennis 30 years no anyone said this to me. But it really make me have really a second thought of all what i had done. Bravo.

You are right. I tennis twice to three times a week can call it leisure social player. Play deep to avoid unforce error at the net via versa.

This has been my main focus for about a couple of years now. Still a work in progress but it's funny because now if I hit my groundstrokes (except slice) within 2 feet above the net I get annoyed even if it's a good shot.😂

The closer you are towards the net the more topspin you need...

I just started playing and all your tips are spot on. Amazing coaching videos.

you can hit a flat shot with all your power, but you must aim just above the net. in topspin you can go for net clearnce thing. As simple as that, its not the tendency but top players require to hit flat shots alot hence they aim for just above the net and sometimes they hit net.

Balls coming in on a flat trajectory, or hit on the rise are attacked flat and low to net - only balls dipping with topspin , or purely defensive shots are hit high over net - get your understanding level up

I’ve always done this by default but struggle to get any power when trying to finish the point using a flat groundstroke.

[markconner]

Great advice….I am a 5.0 player and my hitting partner has a very heavy ball, so if you watched us, it’d be like “why does that guy keep dumping the ball in the net?” It’s because I’m playing against a ducking bowling ball. You just have to have strength in your legs (which I don’t) to push that ball back.

If you are not on a pro Level Most opponents struggle with high top Spin shots which go deep into their court. Best way to put pressure and it’s a fairly safe shot since you always have high net clearance. Im not Talking about rainbows, but heavy spin, powerful strokes, Full swings. It also gives you an extra second to move since the Ball is in the air longer so you can reposition much easier which is maybe even the Most important aspect.

high also requires a lot of topspin, which many players have trouble getting

[kevinlee]

Your videos are very helpful and informative. Many thanks from Korea!

[borisi.]

Sooo true. Tried that million times 😊🎉

I teach this everyday....I think we come from the same school. Another benefit is the bounce is high making your opponent hit above his/hers shoulder
