Wow. My coach doesn’t know anything about all these. God! I’ve learnt more in few days of watching your videos than I’ve learnt in 3yrs with my coaches. I think I need more time alone with these your videos. Thanks for the video. My major problem is where the ball must hit on the bat is it the top or the middle. I tried for 2hrs by myself but I got better with the top and not the middle.
Exactly,..this eye dominant nonsense is completely irrelevant... he's taking advantage of the uninformed gullible general public....he's a shameless con artist
Open stance for beginners is controversial. Posting on the rear foot is a must but keeping the stance open throughout the shot will create other issues especially for recreational players. Sometimes another step to close the stance is important and you can see even Roger do it.
My 15yr old also left eye dominant, Loads / anchors everything on the right foot, even shorter balls. She uses OS for 2HBH as well, can track the ball much better that way. Open stance is great bc it’s very fast from the baseline, the potential problem for beginners is that, while executing the forehand OS, the balance (the body) falls backwards - causing the ball to sail long. If you can anchor the right foot and load through the shot - moving forward, it becomes an effective stance (especially on clay, when dealing with high balls taking it early in the rise)
Your dominant eye definitely plays a role in how u move to the ball but it doesnt determine whether u use open stance or closed stance what determines that is how deep or short the ball is
Has me doing the triangle and realizing my dominant eye has changed. Love tennis but as a badminton player my wrist prepares itself to be broken if i head towards the tennis court 😅
The ball was short and more in the center so she could perfectly use that stance !!!!! But no problem with learning the open stance , it should be the first thing you learn
@@Roadrunner65553 that’s why I said she could perfectly play like that using the closed stance because the ball is shorter and in the center ( you should read better ) but you could she see that she’s not used to play open stance which in our school is strange because it’s the first thing you learn as a beginner !!! And you can attack , change direction , follow to the net , play drop shot in open stance depending the situation. Hope my explanation is more clear now
@@bmtspain6839 A good player learns to play closer to the net first then outward toward the baseline (good players learn to control half court first) so your claim to “that you should learn the open stance first” is a bogus one. You learn the closed one first to begin with and then you learn the defensive one. (She knew one but didn’t know the other) If I should read better, you should know better. European slow court players only move laterally well. They don’t how to close and approach on faster courts.
@@Roadrunner65553 if by closer you mean mini tennis ( which we do in Belgium already in the 80s ) then I agree and the first lessons FH will indeed be in open stance which is the most natural position, makes you turn automatically and is played in 75% of all the stokes if you play MODERN tennis which we teach already more then 20 years ( following Oscar wegner )
@@Roadrunner65553 also to remind you !! The top 10 is full of European players ( 8 ) and 2 Russian NOOO Americans in top 10 😳😳maybe we are doing something different here in Europe. The big 3 are European 😳😳the best on clay , hard and grass 🤔🤔
closed stand is perfectly fine when you have time for it, open stand is used when there is no time to hit in closed stand. nothing to do with dominant eyes
Yea closed stance and hit the ball a bit later when it is between both legs rather than hitting it in front of you. I'm left eye dominant so I use a closed stance for my forehands
I need a video explaining the mechanics behind changing stances based on eye Dominance. Because it actually does not make any sense how this would change anything.
Aiming?? Like a gun ? In tennis you really don’t aim ..your hitting to an area your peripheral sees .. a closed stance shudnt effect seeing the ball coming to you. your head moves/ adjust enough even if you only have one eye
@@PaulDouglas-Feddon Can you show me a player who has an unnatural head position? Presumably many pros are hitting with the 'wrong' stances according to PM's eye dominance / stance theory.

Well yeah and I don't see the point in getting real life lessons from a guy who coaches pros and future pros if you're a recreational player.

Bruh his advice are just marketing

Perhaps your coaches are already aware of this idea and they reject it. I wouldn't be surprised if even the coaches in the PM academy don't teach it.
You are overthinking. Just hit the ball and your body will naturally find your hitting spot.
Keep your eyes on the ball and just hit it.
Love the simple yet effective remedies
One of the all time great coaches
For those who want to know: if the object moves with the eye you close, the closed eye is the dominant one
Yeah dumbest shit I’ve heard

You see Roger do it because he is left eye dominant

When I learned to be a tennis coach in the 70s it was almost completely the other way around.
Love this guy. Coaching skills
Patrick what a great coach
Your dominant eye definitely plays a role in how u move to the ball but it doesnt determine whether u use open stance or closed stance what determines that is how deep or short the ball is
idk how to choose which of my eyes is dominant, sometimes it's the left one and vice versa
Has me doing the triangle and realizing my dominant eye has changed.
Love tennis but as a badminton player my wrist prepares itself to be broken if i head towards the tennis court 😅
just learned my left eye is my dominant eye
I prefer to use both eyes to get a sense if depth

so what scenarios might one use an open-stance forehand vs. a closed-stance and vice versa?

are you fucking kidding he explained to the girl how to know in the video

"Just like THAT"

Wrong! Open stance is for defense, closed stance is for offense. You don’t hit attacking approach shots with an open stance.
@@Roadrunner65553 that’s why I said she could perfectly play like that using the closed stance because the ball is shorter and in the center ( you should read better ) but you could she see that she’s not used to play open stance which in our school is strange because it’s the first thing you learn as a beginner !!!

But im righty and right eye dominant and i hit with a closed stance mostly... How to reconcile with that?
learn kinetic chain
Git gud
closed stand is perfectly fine when you have time for it, open stand is used when there is no time to hit in closed stand. nothing to do with dominant eyes
If her dominant eye was left, are you suggesting she should be using a more neutral stance for her forehands?
Not sure what you mean by neutral stance, but my assumption is that in that case she’d be doing more closed stance forehands
@@Harderanger neutral stance being side on (left foot forwards). Closed to me is left foot across the body (closing off the hips from rotation)
I believe that is the correct assumption
Yea closed stance and hit the ball a bit later when it is between both legs rather than hitting it in front of you. I'm left eye dominant so I use a closed stance for my forehands
Yes . But that is not correct. Check all good players. On a wide ball open stance is used.
Side on is same as neutral .
Really cool seeing a great coach do their thing 🙏🏽
What if no eye is dominant ?
I need a video explaining the mechanics behind changing stances based on eye Dominance. Because it actually does not make any sense how this would change anything.
possibly because your nose is in the way if you are right-right and closed stance
Early footwork or locked out stance is not good .
All good players use open stance for a WIDE ball. That is irrespective of EYE dominance.

There is no such thing as a dominant eye.
Do you see the M inside the triangle? Good, now you know we're part of the iluminati. jk
Never teach open stance to beginners

*Uno dei più bravi maestri al mondo merita il suo successo*
Overcomplicating something that is very simple. Dominant eye means about as much as Dominant finger
its only complicated if you dont understand it. all it means is you position yourself so that your vision in that eye is not obscured. v simple
Completely agree...this clown is a fraud ...stealing from innocent people.... shameless
@@PaulDouglas-Feddon Or turn your head.
@@user-go8oj4dl4wtrue but in practice much harder to learn an unnatural head position than to just adjust stance
