    In today's tennis lesson, I teach my student Sara (former D1) how to develop short angle forehands and backhands with progressions to develop feel and fundamentals.

      To hit these sharp angles on the forehand I just take my finger of the grip.

    I feel like Andy Murray is the king of angle shots and he hits it out of the blue after a hard shot just like the drill. Great lesson!

    This is so so important. I always work angle deep and short even if i got to drop the balls myself. Also that forecourt put away running around BH to option FH going in respective corners. Then dropping ball close to BH sidelines and slicing approach deep in opponent FH corner and following to volley position. You can do all this alone though getting fed is better for obvious reasons.

    Switching from your normal shot to this finesse shot is what the most difficult part is. Actually all kinds of "shot switching", i.e. backhand to forhand, top spin to slice etc, is what we all need to work on. It gets very easy when you are in the comfort zone and just keep hitting the ball with the same power, body involvement, etc.
    Well said Nick! Love this video very much😉

    It’s interesting you say it’s easier for one handed backhands. I have trouble hitting it and I have a one hander. When I was younger and had a two hander, I could easily hit it. It might be because of my lack of confidence on my one hander though because I do agree with the things you’re saying in this video. I’m a 5.0 player in Orlando btw. 😊

    Roger is probably the best doing that short slice BH angel close to net. It's hella way to bring somebody in and is a great reply when your opponent pushes you in BH corner and wanna put him in a defensive scenario.

    Just to make it more clear, we *should* take pace out of this angle shot, correct? It's a finesse shot. We want the ball to drop short. I believe you highlighted it in the video..just wanted to confirm. Thank you. Great lesson

    Loved this one, somehow a shot that has not really been covered within the 1000s of tennis video's on UA-cam and where I realized my mistakes. But a different question:
    I, and a lot of people, would LOVE to a match between you and Karue of MyTennisHQ

    • @circuitdesign
      @circuitdesign 8 місяців тому

      As good as Nick is and a great teacher, Karue would destroy him. I don't have a bias. It's just obvious to me. Karue is younger, hits harder and most importantly is much faster moving around. It would be 6-2, 6-1, depending on how Nick was serving, which would be his best chance of winning points.

    • @begruikersnaam
      @begruikersnaam 8 місяців тому

      That's very well possible, Nick is not 25 anymore either. But since he still seems to be winning easily against former D1 and D2 players I would like to see him play against a player that is actually of a higher level for once. Just like the Winston matchups between different levels are interesting I would like to see this one :D

    But my trainer used to teach me that I should vertically accelerate more… giving the ball max. Spin.

    The only thing I would add coach, Sara’s footwork is just a little off, on her angle shots. You did a great job helping her to improve her shots.

    I remember Lendl after finał with Mečíř he apologized to audience for his stereotype shots to middle of baseline. He did it because of Mečíř wasn't able to create bigger angles. So Lendl eliminated his biggest weapon

    • @willkittwk
      @willkittwk 8 місяців тому

      That's one way to prevent acute angle shot another way is quick recognition and slapping or slicing an approach and pouncing the net like Jimmy Conners or McEnroe then Pete. I just remember Jimmy when I was a kid always looking for the short ball of the ground and rushing the net.

    Who wants to practice sharp angles with you? It’s not time efficient and will fire balls into adjacent courts. Need a ball machine or a kind soul to feed for you and help pick up.
