Hey, hey, this is Shaun with the Atlanta Tennis Podcast, powered by GoTennis!

Speaker: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.
