@nickshirleyy The word "women" does NOT sound like the word "woman". The word "women" rhymes with "swimmin'". They are spelled differently for a reason. You don't pronounce "man" and "men" the same, do you? What is with your generation and your lack of basic literacy?
@janniksin I can tell just by how you play tennis on clay that you're left-footed. TELL ME I'M WRONG. And if I am right, just know that this is the only information that I'm going off of. If you tell me I'm right, I can elaborate on how I know
Try to get it going STRAIGHT, LOW OVER THE NET, AND DEEP. Get as much underspin on it as you can. And just so you know: Using this shot selection, this grip, and this technique will make your slides on your right side more under control and you'll be able to recover sooner
@janniksin Hey. I noticed that you still have one massive weakness on clay, and it's your sliding footwork + your sliding tactics. I just noticed it when watching your most recent match. What you're doing is sliding, then watching the ball, instead of immediately getting back in
it's still near its peak height after it bounces. Don't intentionally let the ball get really low. Try making contact a bit more "on top" of the ball, or at its equator, NOT ON THE LOWER HEMISPHERE OF THE BALL. Try to get that ball traveling STRAIGHT, not up then down.
while he remains sliding on the lead-foot. Doing this will allow you to stop your slides sooner AND it will allow you to be balanced and ready to change directions right away.
immediately start running to cover the other side. And the way that I see Rafa stop his slides is: He moves his back-foot (The right foot, if sliding left. And the left foot, if sliding right) closer to his lead-foot, meaning that he closes his feet via moving the back-foot
@Marc_Brownstein Yooooooooo. Remember how we were talking about how your back is always hurting after playing shows? Well, message me privately. I believe I have solved the problem
@1MickyHazard And hey, did you know that the Buffalo Bills' new stadium opens next season (Reg. season begins Sept.) ? I live 2 miles from the stadium too. And I was thinking: Why don't you come over here for a Sat, Sun, Mon. and we'll go to a game
