If you are trying to use modern techniques you need to meet the ball out in front of your body at contact. But this is something that is really challenging for a lot of tennis players. In this video I explain why that is and give you some ways to address it.

Predicting the incoming ball is really the challenge no.1 in tennis in my experience, and it is due to visual and cognitive limitations. The best practice in my experience is to train baseline ground strikes with a competitive partner to train and train. Unfortunately, the ball machine has not been so helpful in my experience.

The reason why most novice players can’t hit the ball out front, or at least do it successfully, is because their dominant shoulder is behind their non-dominant shoulder at the point of contact. You can swing earlier and still make this mistake by rotating through with the arm only, and not the body, which is often what happens. If a player has a really hard time with this, he should go through the progressions and have balls drop-fed to him, then hand toss, then live ball via rally or ball machine….etc

As far as hitting incoming balls I don't which is harder someone who pounds the ball at one high speed or players who push and block shots with no consistency and tennis courts that are uneven with irregular bounces.

[@randrothify]

For me it is easier to play with someone who hits with pace and consistency because you can eventually calibrate your eyes and footwork and get into a rhythm. With players that hit slow and short balls, or inconsistent in their shot placement and spin, it is very difficult to find good timing and spacing.

[@chrismarcel7]

The latter is harder. I prefer a consistent hitter rather than a marathon runner who hits every shot diferenlty and without pace or rithm.

Easiest solution is to always hit the ball no later than when it reaches the front foot. Doesnt matter if you have power, it’ll always be a clean hit.

racquet takeback/prep is late.
