Get into position for a great forehand


Tennis Mauritius

A common mistake that we have often noticed on the tennis court is that most players have trouble judging their distance to the ball thus hitting the ball too close or too far from their body. This means that their shot is of poor quality.
If you have this same problem, next time you are on the court remember two things while setting up for the shot:

1. have the non-dominant hand on the throat of the racquet.
2. point your non-dominant hand towards the side fence.

Andy Roddick demonstrates perfectly on the picture how he prepares for his devastating forehand.

This will help you find the right distance, as long as you get those quick feet moving!!!
