In today's tennis tip comes from USPTA Elite and PTR Professional, Kenyon Genrette-Oliver.

Speaker:

Have a listen and let us know what you think.

Speaker:

Getting this is Kenyon Genrette-Oliver, partner in the Universal Tennis Academy Head Coach

Speaker:

at Agnes Scott College.

Speaker:

This is called the Open Court Drill.

Speaker:

One of the biggest mistakes I think we make when we're playing doubles, it could be at any

Speaker:

level, is when we take the wrong ball to the wrong side of the court.

Speaker:

For instance, if you get a lower ball that's below the net, those are balls that you typically

Speaker:

can't be aggressive on.

Speaker:

That's a ball that you should want to go to the area of the court where you've got more

Speaker:

space.

Speaker:

So go back to the person who's the deepest in the court to buy time.

Speaker:

A lot of times I find that that player ends up going to the net person so they pop a ball

Speaker:

up and then that player is able to close in and put the ball away.

Speaker:

A lot of times when we're getting the high juicier ball, we tend to take that ball all the way

Speaker:

back to the open court.

Speaker:

That's the ball that should be going to the net person to take time away.

Speaker:

Therefore, when we hit the wrong ball to the wrong area of the court, it's different

Speaker:

things happen.

Speaker:

For instance, you get lobbed on a ball that you really could have put the ball away on.

Speaker:

And then you end up losing points because you're not going to write half of the court.

Speaker:

Well, there you have it.
