Federer Practice Drill

Here’s a couple of great drills I picked up in Dubai a couple of years ago whilst watching Roger Federer practice.

It’s dead simple yet so effective…..but isn’t that the trick??

Moving Well For Clay Court Tennis

I have found that the number one thing about playing well on a clay court has nothing directly to do with shots.

It is in fact about your movement, more specifically – SLIDING.

Sliding into the ball on a clay court is vital and is the one thing that the players who don’t grow up on the surface find the hardest to add into their game.

In fact most people think that you have to learn to hit the ball and then slide.

No!!

You have to learn how to slide into your shots and then begin your recovery for the next ball – and that requires timing.

So how do you learn to do this?

Well, one of the best ways I have seen is to just get out there and slide around.

Getting a partner to throw a tennis ball onto the court in different directions while you run to and slide around to get the balls before getting the ball back to them is one of the best ways to work out how to move and recover on a clay court.

Just progress/transfer this game to when you have a racket and are hitting forehands and backhands and you are well on the way to feeling comfortable and moving better on “the dust”.
