How to Win with High Percentage Tennis
High percentage tennis will help you stay aggressive throughout the match while keeping your consistency high as well. Here is how to hit it.
*The first thing you need to understand is that the tennis net is higher near the doubles alley. So if angles strategy wasn't part of the game hitting down the middle is the best shot to hit because its the highest percentage shot.
However, strategy is part of the game, and the ball is hit at different angles. The natural angle your body is designed to hit the ball is cross court. So when the ball is hit down the middle go across court. Not only is natural, but the ball is traveling over the lowest part of the net as well.
*When the ball is hit down the line, you change the direction of the ball. Normally people think the high percentage thing to do is hit it straight. That's wrong. The high percentage shot is to change the direction of the ball. Not only is it more consistent, but it makes your opponent move as well.
*A flatter ball may be faster, but its less constant. You want to hit with lots of spin. There is a famous quote in tennis, " It's better to hit the ball six feet over than one inch under." An example of this is Rafael Nadal, who clears the net by a body length sometimes and is the most consistent player on tour. He also number 2 in the world. Hit with lots of spin to for good clearance of the net.This goes along with the previous step. Hit with lots of clearance. Aim for no-mans land not the baseline. If you hit with spin, your shot will still be just as effective if not more so if you were to try to paint the lines. If you give yourself a larger margin of error you will make less errors, naturally.
