Great videos! I am an intermediate player who hasn't picked up a racket in over ten years. Not only is this channel showing me that I used to do so many things wrong, but it also makes me want to play tennis again.
@@TopTennisTrainingOfficial I appreciate your prompt reply. The lessons I would like to see in 2021 are the following: 1. Best ways to attack; 2. Best ways to react to an attack; 3. How to use a stop ball, 4. How to react to a stop ball? Thank you so much for taking some ideas up. Best regards from Germany. Oliver P.S.

Simon, hello from Almaty, Kazakhstan. Your lesson on return of serve is the best, no doubt. I have watched in detail about 20 video lessons and non of them was so well covering all main stages of return like your lesson. I would like thank you especially for paying attention to one handed returners and good examples of RF’s return of serve. Very helpful and easy to understand. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Small backswing/big follow through is a great simple message to hold in the mind. I'll focus on this as I try to move closer to the service line on returns. I'm trying to learn to take the ball earlier to cut off the server's angles (and f**k up his timing). But how to handle the dreaded body serve?
@@TopTennisTrainingOfficial Thanks a lot for asking. Apart from the mental lessons that I had mentioned earlier, there aren't any other lessons. I am eagerly waiting for the mental lessons though, to quickly diminish that drawback of my game.
Thanks Simon. I will try to implement this, especially on backhand where I struggle most. This video has great detail and will warrant many re-views as I work on incorporating each point into my game 🙏
at 4.0 NTRP level the most annoying are the second serves that have no pace. They don't jump as high, and being an one-hander is quite complicated to generate lots of top-spin to attack such serves. Even on the forehand, I have troubles adjusting for these balls so that I lift them up and hit a strong return. Would be good to make a video about such scenarios. Thx!
Great tutorial! Playing the game for a lot of years (think Jack Kramer) so have struggled tempering the power of the modern racquets. Very helpful...thanks for posting!
@@TopTennisTrainingOfficial We like seeing different games you can play when training to help improve you match play. Any return games you can play to work on what you just shared?
Hello Coach Simon, I would love to know if there are any tips on returning with slices, like what Federer always does. Thanks a lot for uploading this video, I've learned so much from you！
A lesson to help me/us to be more aware and or correct our wrist position or movement. It would just be nice to have a refresher in the spring for us public court players out there winging it
i am very poor in returning serves, i am definitely going to apply these steps. I want video of ' how to anticipate that serve is going which way, backhand or forehand.'?🙏
Many players will use the slice on wider or lower balls. However, you can use the slice in many instances to mix up play 👍 it’s a very underrated shot that not many younger players work on. Older players tend to need a slice to pick up the ball All the best Simon
Thank you for watching The all-white racket is a prototype frame but I use a Dunlop CX 200 tour currently. Are there any lessons you would like to see in 2021? All the best Simon
@@TopTennisTrainingOfficial Yes. I’m 46 and tennis is a relatively new game to me, playing 3 years. I’m interested in ‘upping’ my game, a more consistent serve, doubles tactics & match play and finally playing more singles (as I’ve mainly played in doubles in group sessions at David Lloyd)?!!!
A) Step in and cut down the angles before it gets too high and play aggressive - shorter swing body weight into shot B) move back and let it come down and play it high and deep use your legs to drive up and give good height over the net
@@TopTennisTrainingOfficial Coach, could you give us tips on how to "read" the opponent's serve ? (amateur) - recommended response. Eg. if the opponent does a slice-serve or close to the center service line - stance/shot return advice? Thank you 🙂
Point #2 you make I find is really useful. I have always found going inside out forehand receiving on the ad side that if I just orient the entire body forwards with an aggressive swing that the ball either goes to their feet or cross-court winner. Oddly on these balls I have found them to be sharply precise- that is it ends nearly exactly where I am sub-consciously 'moving'.. In general, It is just moving your body weight from the rear foot to the front and in turn generating forwards momentum. Would you say though the key queue to initiate this in a more reliable manner is to tilt your upper body forwards? Because where the upper body goes the legs tend to follow. As for Point #3 I think the main reason the backswing is instructed to be small is to minimise any time lost in re-positioning behind the baseline but would you agree that a big follow-through means more force on the ball and thus a greater defensive shot from the server?
Leaning into the ball is a great visual aid that I use myself and with my students. For the finish, the follow through is crucial in creating the correct swing path of low to high or medium to high, producing topspin. You could reduce that speed but still finish all the way if you want to absorb power or reduce your own power. All the best Simon
Great video wonderful detail on an area that doesn’t get nearly enough attention. Question, the split step for return of serve you describe would it be the same movement at the baseline for a ball hit hard to a sideline? I realize we wouldn’t cut the angle off but is the movement the same outside leg than other foot comes across?
There are many different ways to split step when returning. Some players step into a split, starting further back then going into the split off one leg (Murray style) Agassi would split step on the spot often from a narrow position. Djokovic often uses a double or triple split step. Nadal bounces between both feet then goes into the split. Federer uses a wide variety 👍 We cover this inside our footwork course on the website
@@TopTennisTrainingOfficial Hey Simon, I'm currently working on my double handed backhand. There are quite a few different attitudes in "how much should I drop the racquet bevor contact" - saw your Agassi-Djokovic video. I trained with an ATP Pro last summer, he doesn't drop the racquet at all! Maybe you could make an in depth video on this topic and what's the difference in using the one or the other (or an in-between) technique! All the best, George
Very helpful thanks Simon. I notice the Pro's are very quick to pick up on Serve direction and it seems to take me too (damn) long. Sometimes I'm beaten by a Serve because I'm leaning the wrong way so a similar video to this one on how to recognize Serve direction. Then my RoS would be awesome-ish.
It would be the same footwork patterns but the strokes would change obviously. So on my forehand return, I’d use right to left, but that would be your backhand return
@@TopTennisTrainingOfficial a lesson on how to stay relaxed on the courts mentally and physically I notice pros at the highest level like roger keep composed and calm I see pros do certain things like blow on fingers or touch the racket strings to stay focused and calm Thanks!
Hi Simon thanks again for a great video. I would like to ask your natural grip whether you are in return of serve or a ready position. As far as I know you have an eastern forehand grip and double handed backhand. "If the ball is coming to your forehand are you switching from continental to eastern or you are already in eastern grip" or vice versa "if the ball is coming to your backhand are you switching from eastern forehand to continental grip or you are already in continental grip?" Shortly, what is your natural grip when you are in waiting position :) Many thanks.

Very nice info, Great tips. My question for one handed backhand on add court, what grip you decide for a ready preparation? I use forehand grip on duece court. Thank you in advance!
The return is definitely my worst shot, also due to lack of concentration between points. I hope that trying to implement these advices helps me to stay focused. Unless I accidentally open too much the racquet face resulting in a deep but dull floating ball, my BH slice return often lands near the service line: it's probably because of mistake no. 3, isn't it?
Hi Simon, do you think the first step landing from the split should be onto the foot you are going to push off from? ie: land on the left to push off for a forehand and the opposite for the backhand? I know this is taught as a more efficient way to move to the direction of the ball. Just wondering on your thoughts for this? Even Novak in your video at 8:04 is doing this. Thanks!
The off split is a more advanced technique, it comes from reading the ball flight mid split. Not easy to do for 90% of players who play the game, elite players do this since they’re so good at reading where the ball is going. If you’re at a high level, for sure you’ll want to get good at it

This video will allow me to beat my boyfriends horrible backhand serves. I hope. I have some suggestions for videos for 2021. I am a good double player, but at singles I am not that good..... I really have no clue how to approach singles. I feel that every shot has to be a winner, so I mess up a lot. Unnecessary, but I don't know any other strategy. Second, the lob. And third, the backhand volley when you have a two handed backhand. Does these suggestions work for you?
Nice video, but Djokovic does not make a split step first and then to right or left. He split steps rightleft fast or leftright fast. He is in the air as the ball is on the opponent his racket. He can adjust when the ball comes of the racket.
The drill at 3:29 inspired me to try and replicate it with my slingerbag. I think any soft toss drill can be done using the ball boy setting. Let me know what you think!

I've been coaching since 2006 and the best coaches are the one's that love the game and love seeing their players improve.
Good luck on your journey
All the best
Simon
@@TopTennisTrainingOfficial thanks sir so much 🙏
How to deal with the very short and spin coming ball almost like underarm serve?
This video will allow me to beat my boyfriends horrible backhand serves. I hope. I have some suggestions for videos for 2021. I am a good double player, but at singles I am not that good..... I really have no clue how to approach singles. I feel that every shot has to be a winner, so I mess up a lot. Unnecessary, but I don't know any other strategy. Second, the lob. And third, the backhand volley when you have a two handed backhand. Does these suggestions work for you?
Thank you for the suggestions 👍
We do have a few singles lessons here - th-cam.com/video/zD3_GHYTp7w/w-d-xo.html
Nice video, but Djokovic does not make a split step first and then to right or left. He split steps rightleft fast or leftright fast. He is in the air as the ball is on the opponent his racket. He can adjust when the ball comes of the racket.
Mid air he changes the split into a stutter
Unfortunately when watching the pros in the example videos they are taking a bigger backswing than described, especially look at Federer’ backhand.
The drill at 3:29 inspired me to try and replicate it with my slingerbag. I think any soft toss drill can be done using the ball boy setting. Let me know what you think!
yes
Thank you for watching 👍
What word is said if a serve is not wanted please.
What is that all white matte racket?!
It’s a prototype
@@TopTennisTrainingOfficial Thanks for the reply! Shame, I would love a completely matte racket!
Seria conveniente que fuese más sencillo y no tan repetitivo.
Your videos are decent but you talk way too much
Ask for a refund. Oh wait…
@@TopTennisTrainingOfficial wheres your comedy page that's hilarious
Awesome!!
Thanks for watching 👍
Are there any lessons you would like to see in 2022?
Best wishes,
Simon
