Tennis Tips: Happy Feet
- A lot of beginners make of the mistake of
focusing only the stroke and forget about movement. Footwork is just
as important if not more important than the stroke itself. You need to
be in the perfect position to hit the ball every time and the only to attain
that is with good footwork. If you watch the pros, they take at least
6-8 more steps to the ball than the average recreational player. So
look alive and keep those feet moving!
