The Art of the Volley

Take a lesson on the volley and you might hear the words "don't swing" repeated by your teaching pro. Well, if you don't swing, how then are you to generate any pace on the volley. Former world number one doubles champion and six time grand slam doubles and mixed doubles winner, Ken Flach addresses this and other myths about the volley. This is a must for any club player who wants to be more aggressive at the net.

Waking Up From Your Worst Nightmare

In the eyes of many, big shots and “winners” are what make the champions great. Though power and winning shots are certainly an aspect of tennis, the fact is, unless your name’s Rafa, Roger, or Serena, the vast majority of your matches will be determined by which player (or team) commits the fewest errors. With that in mind, Greg Moran shows you how to minimize your own errors, and induce your opponents into beating themselves.

ProStrokes 2.0 – Samantha Stosur's Serve & Net Game

This 26 year old Australian veteran turned pro 11 years ago but has been on a bit of a tear recently. She has captured one title this year, two overall, but in the past she has been known as a doubles specialist with 22 titles under her belt. She's amassed $5 million plus in prize money but the story here is her ranking, which has climbed to 5th on the WTA singles list. An all court player with a two and one-handed backhand, equal fluency at the baseline or the net, but Samantha's game revolvers around her wicked kick serve absolute, absolutely the best kick serve on the women's tour. New this issue, Samantha Stosur's Serve and Net Game.

Travel to Paris for the 2010 French Open with Grand Slam Tennis Tours. Sit courtside at Roland Garros with add-on options and travel excursions. It's the best way to experience the tournament and France!

  • Roddick's Team of Rivals? – Terrell Owens, the talented yet volatile wide receiver has been seen at a number of Andy Roddick's matches. Apparently the two are buds. Or is something else going on here. Perhaps, like Lincoln and Obama, Roddick has added him as an advisor to coach Larry Stefanki – creating a team of rivals, so to speak. So, what would a conversation between this rather odd couple sound like? Kim Shanley puts his spin on it.

The Power Pocket

Doug King turns his analytical eye to the contact – specifically two important aspects of contact, the touch and the drive. The former involves getting the hands to the ball, the latter, getting the body into the shot. Here Doug introduces the concept of the "Power Pocket" (also called the slot) and the "Power Cord" and the role these two things play in creating an effective stoke.

The Serve…Should you start by going up or down?

There are two basic approaches to how you start your serve. One approach is the classic style, where the racquet and ball tossing hands “go down together and up together.” A second approach is where both hands essentially move upwards to start the motion. A comparison begs the question: If the end result is the same or similar then does the start matter? Or in other words, how important is the process to get to the final product? – Dave Kensler

The Three Speeds

Most players have a favorite speed that they like to hit the ball. For some they like to crank it, while others are content just to stroke it easy and make a lot of shots. Regardless of your preference, it is important that you develop multiple speeds that you can send the ball back to you opponent with. A good recommendation is to have 3 basic speeds that you can hit when you are competing. Ken DeHart explains.
