Want a cleaner, more reliable forehand? It starts with the take back. Here is how to set it up:

Point your racquet face toward the back corner of the court on your forehand side.

Lift your hitting elbow slightly, tilting the racquet head gently forward.

This setup keeps the racquet on the side of your body for a clean, direct swing path. It keeps your arm away from your torso, making it easier to cover the ball and achieve full arm extension right through contact.

Want to hit faster serves with less effort? You need pronation.

When using a proper continental grip, your racquet naturally travels on edge toward the ball. This is the fastest way to accelerate through the air, but you cannot hit the ball with the frame.

Pronation is simply turning your hand outward right through contact. This opens the strings to meet the back of the ball at the very last millisecond, giving you the fastest swing path possible.

To all my ladies doubles players, stop making this common volley mistake. Letting your arms drop down next to your hips forces your contact point behind you, which leads to weak pop-ups and lost points at the net. Fix it with these three keys:

Keep your arms set out in front of your hips.

Keep the tip of the racquet above your hand.

Step cleanly forward to meet the ball out in front.

Stop dropping your racquet behind your head too early.

When you drop the racquet down too soon, you start your forward swing from too low. That kills your racquet acceleration and steals all your power.

Instead, keep the tip of your racquet pointing up toward the sky a fraction longer. Starting your drive from this higher position gives the racquet the runway it needs to build maximum speed into contact.

My honest thoughts on the new Wilson Defyer 98 Pro.

The cosmetic looks way better in person than online, and the string bed offers decent consistency. But out of the box, it leaves a lot to be desired.

It feels noticeably hollow on power, spin potential is limited, and the torsional stability simply is not there against heavy incoming balls. If you pick one up, plan on adding weight and customizing the specs. Otherwise, your money is better spent elsewhere.

Stop swinging at your volleys if you want more pace.

The bigger your swing, the bigger your margin for error. If you want consistently heavy, penetrating volleys, power does not come from your arm, it comes from your legs.

Step into the shot and freeze your racquet right after contact. Keeping the frame completely still at impact transfers all your forward momentum into the ball without spraying it long.

Trying to master the backhand slice? Start with these three basic steps:

Step 1: Lock in a continental grip.

Step 2: Swing the racket along a subtle U-shaped swing path.

Step 3: Finish flat at shoulder height.

The key is keeping your wrist completely firm. Start by just bumping the ball to get the feel down. If your wrist collapses, you immediately lose control of the shot. Keep it solid, carve underneath, and let the racket do the work. Ready to sharpen your fundamentals and build an effortless game?

Most players miss volleys with their feet, not their hands.

When you get hesitant at the net, your upper body tenses up and you let the ball dictate play. Instead of obsessing over your racket face, think: AGGRESSIVE FEET.

Shift your focus downward and step cleanly into the court right at impact. Moving your feet loosens your grip, takes time away from your opponent, and makes you attack the net with confidence. Hit the ball, do not let it hit you.

Saw one of my students pulling up with this setup and had to get on board.

Huge thanks to for sending over some heat. Good gear makes court time better, but dialling in your technique makes it count.
