Return Of Serve
Someone sent me this email at www.tennis-training-central.com
“Hello Paul,
I am writing to ask you for advice.
I just recently played a match in which I was serving great and holding all my service games but I could not return my opponents serve. If the return did go in it would be a soft high ball which he would kill. I ended up losing 7-6,7-6 because of this lack of ability to return. This is not the first time this has happened but if you have any advice on how to quickly improve my return I would really love to hear it.
Thank you for your time.
Juan

I was watching Andy Murray recently and he spent a good 45 mins just returning – he is one of the World’s best returners – SIMPLE
More on the return next time!
