Focus on mastering tennis hitting skills, step by step. Continue to improve your tennis skills with the goal of scoring goals. The focus of this article is not only on learning the basic techniques, but also on learning how to hit the ball effectively in a variety of situations.

A. Receiving and serving skills

The shortcut for the receiving player to score is to directly score the return and attack. In order to improve the probability of returning the ball, you must first master certain skills. Just as it is very beneficial to spot a pitcher’s flaws in baseball, it’s important to look at the server’s flaws in return and attack. Specific steps are as follows:

1. Determine where the ball is coming from and stand in a good position.
2. After standing in a fixed position, turn around with the left shoulder quickly and agilely, and only consider turning at this time.
3. At the moment of hitting the ball, hold the racket tightly so that it does not vibrate.
4. In the last ball-following action, continue to swing quickly in the direction of the racket head, and then return naturally.

We can easily see the change in the speed of the ball after the return. The importance of interception on a faster serve must be recognized. Pay attention to turning and hitting the ball back. There is no need to close your body sharply, basically, you only need to use the skills of hitting the earth in baseball to hit the ball.

B. Angle ball skills

Hit the ball to the diagonal teeing ground at a certain angle is called a diagonal kick.
This type of ball requires flexible wrist movement, and can be used by players who are good at topspin, whether they are hitting overshoots or hitting the bottom line in a row. This is also the style of play that first-class players must master.

1. While staring at the opponent’s action, enter the hitting place.
2. Retract while confirming the opponent’s position, so that the diagonal ball can hit the opponent’s empty space.
3. Raise the racket head from the bottom and hit a spinning ball.
4. Even if you are playing a short ball, you should continue to swing straight to avoid spraining your wrist.

It should be noted that this kind of ball needs speed, so the ball should be 30 cm to 50 cm higher than the net when passing through the net. A slanted ball played from the end line should be more than 50 cm higher than the net, as such a ball will land at an angle better than a rubbed tennis ball.

C. Topspin golf skills

The so-called topspin lob is to use the technique of pulling the ball to make the opponent miss the opportunity to surf the net. Because it is an aggressive shot, the topspin lob is different from a normal lob, and there is no need to imagine the trajectory too high.

1. Close your body while estimating the position of the opponent’s volley.
2. Pull the ball slightly for a while, so that the opponent misses the opportunity to surf the net.
3. Use the wrist movement directly from the bottom to the top, and swing the ball high, which can add a strong rotation.

The wrist action of rubbing the ball quickly and powerfully from bottom to top is the key to a successful shot. The closing action is the same as a normal bounce ball. Before hitting the ball, move the racket head down and wipe away from the bottom up. You don’t have to hit it too high, as long as you can get the ball roughly two or three beats above the racket as it passes the opponent. Pay attention to the right side of the head with the movement of the ball, which is also the skill of the first-class professional players.

D. Quick interception skills

In modern tennis, overspin is the mainstream, and the technique that is often used is the tee shot.

The volley is not so much a volley as it is a baseline kick. This is especially the shot that bouncers frequently use.

Forehand tackle

1. When the opponent’s ball flies, step forward quickly.
2. Hit the ball at the position where you are most motivated. The point is to think you’re about to hit the winning shot.
3. The action range should be large with the ball, and quickly adjust the posture to meet the next shot.

 Backhand tackle

1. When hitting the backhand, most players use the two-hand grip method.
2. Place the racket head parallel to the ball. In order to successfully intercept the ball, you must use all your strength at the moment of hitting the ball.
3. In the same way as the winning ball, in order not to sprain the wrist, use the wrist movement to follow the swing.

Although the ball comes at a high height, it is not necessary to hit the ball at shoulder height. It is better to wait for the ball to fall between the chest and waist before hitting it, which is easier to use. Remember to play with the rebounder’s topspin essentials.

E. Close-net and low-ball skills

This is a common hitting method on clay courts. It is especially suitable for opponents who are not too fast moving back and forth, as well as women’s competitions.

Be careful not to put your head too far, or you will be seen by the other party.
1. The essentials are the same as the forward shot, and the posture is not to be seen by the opponent.
2. Be fully relaxed when hitting the ball, and be careful not to feel wrong because of tension.
3. Add topspin on the basis of cutting the ball to speed up the rotation of the return ball.

When hitting the ball, don’t forget the feel of the lead. In order not to let the opponent see through the attacking method, you can play with the forward and backhand slicing posture. The above is the basic technique of tennis. I hope it will help you improve your skills. Chutian Sports Channel will make progress together with you!
