Thanks so much for this video. I have footage of my own serve and it's great that I can scroll through your video and find the right angle that matches my footage so I can compare techniques.
An excellent video, to see the slow motion of all of these top players. Incidentally, I was at the Exhibition in 2014 at Earls Court and took some nice photos of Sampras, Agassi, Lendl and Cash, and their serves. It was a fun evening.
We've watched sixteen minutes of great slow motion techniques here. I will like to point out what made the Sampras serve so unique compared to everyone else featured in this video sequence. So, if we look at it here 01:56 By the way, this video was taken in 2014 in Earls Court in London. Virtually every player in the video faces the court, or you can say, faces their target. However, Sampras in this video has the most side on motion. The only other player that comes to mind with such a side on motion is John McEnroe, who of course was left handed. So it was interesting to watch them play each other like I was lucky to do in 2008 in Royal Albert Hall Masters tournament. As Sampras has the most side on motion in the video, there are more possibilities to have disguise. Pete tended to toss the ball straight above his head or slightly to the left, and therefore on the deuce court would come over the ball with slice and topspin down the middle at pace. And with that same motion, could go out wide. The Sampras "flat" serve down the middle actually had a lot of spin, much more than his peers. One way this is manifested so you can see for yourself is when the ball hits the deck, it actually appears to gather more pace, because it is like a mini explosion. which is why you often saw centre line judges having to take cover because the ball was heading straight at them fast and sometimes head height, which is quite incredible as they stand about 20 metres from where the ball initially pitches in the service box. However, for me it is the ad court where the side on motion made the most difference. Unlike most players since the 1990s who stand further away from the centre line, Sampras stood quite close to the centre line. Therefore, with the side on motion, was able to bend the ball with extreme slice down the middle. Often the ball would bend away from the opponent, hence the many aces there, even many second serve aces down the middle on the ad court. The match point in the 1999 Wimbledon final being the perfect example. A second serve ace at 113mph bending away from Agassi, who is stretching to reach it but can't get there. Andrew Castle once described Pete's serve like a quiver which is a great description. Usually the serve bending away like that from the opponent is the domain of the lefty but as a righty Sampras was somehow able to figure that out. With good rhythm, an excellent flexible shoulder as others have pointed out, and the side on motion allowing for the disguise and pronation, because again, with the same ball toss could go out wide on the ad court. In the last thirty years, most players stand further away from the centre line, therefore on the ad court tend to have to compromise if they want to get the ball down the middle, the ball often angles into the opponent’s hitting zone as opposed to going away from the opponent. In the women’s game, Serena has a similar philosophy to Sampras, but again, she is quite old school. Not sure if we will see servers like that in future unless philosophies change.
@Frank Roelands To be fair Iron Mike Tyson also said Muhammad Ali would very easily whoop his ass if they fought during their primes, which is nonsense. These humble complimentary comments made by players out of respect tbh don't mean much. But I do agree Sampras has a better serve than Federer. He is in my opinion the more clutch player in general.
As a hobby tennis player, what I would like to add, is that as far as I can determine, the top players toss the ball perfectly, so that the ball is slightly to the left of the player‘s head when he strikes the ball (referring to right-handed players). This allows the ball to be hit with a lot of top-spin, which shortens the length of the trajectory, thus making it less likely that the ball will be hit too long. Also, the grip needs to be correct too : most hobby tennis players play using the forehand grip when serving, and consequently not enough top-spin is imparted to the ball when serving. Comments/input = welcome !
I’ve analyzed the serve, and could basically explain all components of it. There’s SO much that goes into a serve. some parts are not even noticeable , unless pointed out. Yes, the ball toss to the left of head, or better at 12 o’clock, can hit all serves. But then comes body positioning. Most people don’t notice that when serving, the body momentum needs to go at least forward, preferably to the right ( right handed) a bit. If someone wants to hit kick from the same 12 o’clock toss, they could go more linear to the baseline and to the right more, therefore dragging the racquet behind to create more linear racket path to the baseline moving L to R, and to catch the ball while the racket is still pointing to the L side fence ( if the top of the frame is the pointer) and still has room to brush up and to the R side, giving the ball its kick. This comes from momentum moving to the Right, regardless of the toss. As far as tossing at 11 o’clock for all serves, would be good for only kick serve, but not for flat/slice or topspin. Topspin is more weight moving forward, and racket path more forward towards the net, but hitting over the ball more, giving topspin.
@@zeejimi4044 thanks. I hate when I rant and can’t shut up. I literally get sick of hearing myself go on. But yeah, I know tennis fundamentals very good, and coach. Any questions, and I can help clarify.
@@leolionroarrrrrrr5509 No problem - it’s great to hear someone contributing some practical and good knowledge to the discussion. Most hobby players don’t understand even the theory of serving, and often play literally for decades without understanding why they serve so poorly. The guy I normally play against even refuses to listen to tips given to him by anyone and says “Yes, I kow the theory.”, but in fact he does not.., not at all.. 🤷🏼♂️
@@zeejimi4044 yeah. I hear ya. I was that way when I was young and thought I should already be pro. And pros don’t need tweaking of shots. When in fact, even the top player in world still needs adjustments and corrections throughout his career. I had to shed my pride, and listen to the top coaches on how technically sound strokes are assembled. I had to basically become vulnerable like I was learning all over again. And it made the process of tennis so much more fun and interesting. So so much goes in to attaining proper sound technique, that it’s always a learning process. And that’s what makes tennis so much fun. The depth of knowledge.
A lot of coaches tell novices to raise both arms together with the toss with the racket frozen in the trophy position in a waiting static pose. However, the slo mo shows the racket arm starting low and rising well behind the toss arm in a continuous looping motion.
This is powerful compilation. with my visualization skills, I have established an advantageous racket throwing starting point, butt slightly behind ear. Also, staying to the side when you throw racket towards net post. Been opening up to early. keeping tossing arm up will abate body opening, this is key to efficient throwing power. Olander Worthy
From watching this video and watching video of my own serve, I was not coiling my torso enough. To fix this I am tracking the tossed ball with my left nipple to get my chest up, torso coiled in a C, falling forward into the court at the trophy position, and as the ball begins to fall I am uncoiling. Looks better and less stiff.
I would love to know if there was a % score for technique. I wonder who would have the "best" serve? Being able to place it where you want is, to me, not a change in technique, per se. That is a few degrees difference in the racket face. I'm taking purely about technique. I really like Thiem's knee bend, but if I could take anyone's serve, it would be Groth.
Sampras, then Federer. Isner and Karlovic are naturally suited for serving hard. But Federer is #3 on the aces list, and he isn't far behind them either.
@@srinitaaigaura The aces list isnt a fair representation. These players have tremendous groundstrokes, and will stay in tournaments longer, playing more matches. I would ask how many aces PER match, to see how efficient their serve is.
Federer’s serve is very fluid but wow is shoulder is not flexible at all and makes his racquet drop higher than someone with a more flexible shoulder like Djokovic or Thiem. However, he makes up for it with incredible timing.
Pronation is more important than shoulder with tennis serves. That is why most of the pros only turn 45-55 degrees. If a pitcher did that they would not break 50 mph.
As a right handed player, is it "better" or more natural to land directly in front of you on your left foot? I see some players land a bit to their left or right from their left foot's starting position. Tsitsipas comes to mind when I think of landing to the left of the left foot's original position. Thanks for the footage!
Landing on the right foot means you can instantly start a run to the net, if you want to serve and volley. That used to be important then. Remember, Tstitsipas hasn't yet figured out grass.
In my opinion, Sampras is the greatest server of all time when you factor in height, as he is only 6 foot 1 inches tall. It is not hard to have a great serve when your nearly 7 foot tall. You didn't show Raonic, but this guy is very skilled. Plenty of players near his height on the tour that are no where near as good as him. Schwartzman, Ferrer and Murray are all great returners and they all say Isner is the best.
Yes, you can throw into the court. As long as your feet don't touch the line or inside the line prior hitting the ball your good. In fact, throwing into the court is a great way to get extra speed because you can throw your whole body into the ball at contact.

@@asdfswer4657 Federer's serve is not easy to reproduce. I'm not talking about the efficiency ofc cuz no shit it's the case for every pro player, but about the motion. Beautifully and stylistic gesture imo.
Great vid, but would have been even more helpful if it was divided into lefties and righties. I'm a leftie, so it's a bit difficult to flip over what the righties are doing.
The best server I've ever seen in my life, and even today or the Next Generation to come, and No One else can do that, NO OTHER THAN Felicesimo Ampon of the Philippines. He Serve only in the two corner of the Service Area, one to the left and one to the Right. I watch all his Match in the Tournament, exactly the two corner of the Service Area only, not inside the service Area, in the Corner between the Parallel and Horizontal. Nobody can that even as of today, three Sets exactly in the corner only. You know how much practice in a single day, He practice 8 hours everyday. If you return the serve, the next shot is in the single line on the right, then if you return, then again on the single line on the left. If you return those three shots, you will never finish the set. You will become exhausted. It means he never hit the ball inside the tennis court, he hit the Lines of the single court. So as of today Nobody can do that, that's why I'm not so happy about how the tennis players are playing. They just hit power, power, power, so the next day your in the Bed. The one thing is the behavior, he sleep 8 hours a day. Invite him in the Party, he will never come. He ate only vegetable. He wear a long pants white, but after three sets, there is No ashes on the pants. Same as it is in the beginning of the Match. I am a tennis Instructor also in the kingdom of Saudi Arabia. I hope someday I can develop a student like Felicesimo Ampon.

Are you allowed to throw the ball into the court as you serve or must the ball remain behind the baseline at all times until contact?
You can toss the ball behind the stalls or on the moon if it helps but you must never ever step into the court before you hit it.
Yes, you can throw into the court. As long as your feet don't touch the line or inside the line prior hitting the ball your good. In fact, throwing into the court is a great way to get extra speed because you can throw your whole body into the ball at contact.

Where is Milos Ronic ... biggest serve in the game ?? Also, the lefty in all white on the grass, huge foot faults!
Fed foot fault 1:11
Kyrgios is best
Rodger be foot fault in
1:03 is that not a foot fault?
Yes, at 1:07 to be exact.
Note how smart sports fans are in general: They don't like tennis that much (notice all the empty seats in the arenas). Boring!
Left out Roddik.
1:06 Foot on the line
Somehow this best serve in the world video manages to leave out the statistically proven best server (under 195cm) of all time named Andy Roddick
Yes, but service action too ideosyncratic. Not even other pros have copied it.
The best server I've ever seen in my life, and even today or the Next Generation to come, and No One else can do that, NO OTHER THAN Felicesimo Ampon of the Philippines. He Serve only in the two corner of the Service Area, one to the left and one to the Right. I watch all his Match in the Tournament, exactly the two corner of the Service Area only, not inside the service Area, in the Corner between the Parallel and Horizontal. Nobody can that even as of today, three Sets exactly in the corner only. You know how much practice in a single day, He practice 8 hours everyday. If you return the serve, the next shot is in the single line on the right, then if you return, then again on the single line on the left. If you return those three shots, you will never finish the set. You will become exhausted. It means he never hit the ball inside the tennis court, he hit the Lines of the single court. So as of today Nobody can do that, that's why I'm not so happy about how the tennis players are playing. They just hit power, power, power, so the next day your in the Bed. The one thing is the behavior, he sleep 8 hours a day. Invite him in the Party, he will never come. He ate only vegetable. He wear a long pants white, but after three sets, there is No ashes on the pants. Same as it is in the beginning of the Match. I am a tennis Instructor also in the kingdom of Saudi Arabia. I hope someday I can develop a student like Felicesimo Ampon.
Gael monfils? Tiafoes looks like a modified version.
Can't see much of the ball
somebody's gotta tell Novak to drive with his back leg more on the serve
I don't like Dominic Thiem's serve

Goran was just super tall)
