Win More Singles Matches | 1 Simple Tip
"If you accidentally win a huge lottery, you get to keep the money." Man that had me busting up.
Hahah thanks so much!!!
I once heard John MCEnroe explain that when he attacked the net the statistics broke down in his favor. 25% he would get passed, 25% his opponent hit it out, 25% he had a easy volley and 25 % he had a volley that he could make if he did it correctly. If you are a good at hitting volleys the percentage is in your favor. Personally I started moving in at every opportunity right away in the match so I got into the volley grove. If you wait until set point or tie breaker you will not be confident. Don’t stay back and just “ hit and hope” move in and make it happen. Play lots of practice sets then matches where you attack the net. Do lots of drills and skills training to develop your volley. Don’t be afraid to lose some sets or matches to improve. Practice the way you want to play and play to win.
Love your advice. Keep on attacking hurts the opponent rythmn and timing cause volleys come at him in all varied angles making it harder for him to predict. Ground strokes back at him are more predictable and give him a longer look.
Thanks alot for that shoutout and great analysis! Ill be uploading more of my footage when I can so just let me know if you want to use more 😁🎾
And I would think just moving forward adds additional pressure, which will likely draw more errors by your opponent.
Awesome video !!! I feel so fortunate to receive coaching from you . 🙏🙏
This is an excellent video!!! There are not enough videos showing WTA players technique. Also, Serena has never gotten credit for her shot selection or technique.
Love your brilliant tip. Your analysis is amazing!! Thanks, Ryan!
Wow thank you AJ!!
You are the BEST . Thanks you take so much time for helping players to level up .
Thanks. You’re just the absolute BEST online coach out there!! 👍👏👏
Wow thank you Cindy! I appreciate your amazing support.
Thank you for the great tennis video.
Have a great day today.
Great lesson, thank you so much
Good analysis; thank you for your private lessons too!
Très astucieux comme stratégie merci beaucoup Thank U guy
Good tips, thanks our new friend. Have a great day and night to all 👍
Thanks again great tips.!👍
Awesome stuff !!!
Nice tip! Big thanks!
Good advice, however, in order to execute it one needs to: 1. Have proper volley technique. 2. Be fit-getting to the net and back takes a lot of effort and 3. Use proper approach shots, otherwise your opponent will pass or lob you if he has enough time to prepare. Anyway, a good player must be able to get to the net. Thanks for the analysis.
Thank you. I go very often to the net but many times I get lob. I think maybe I run too fast and too close to the net, and sometimes my shots are not fast enough.
Great tip. Sounds eerily familiar. I'll take that as a compliment ;)

Great explanation!
Fantastic. Thanks
So glad you liked the video Grunge!
I have heard John McEnroe explain his constantly attacking the net tactics in this way. Passing shot errors 25%, easy volley 25%, average make able volley 25% and passing shot winner 25%. If you make the majority of those average volleys the percentage is in your favor. Many recreational players would be surprised how many errors or easy setup shots they could get by moving forward when they move their opponents out of position. Being a high school tennis coach I have coached lots of matches and given the same advice as Ryan.
Thanks so much Thomas!
Great stuff
Nice analysis - now all I have to do is learn to play net! :-)
Great lesson, how many times have we hit epics shots and watched them instead of closing in on the net! I like how Serena is heading toward the net before the ball even bounces on the opponent's side...
You’re 100% correct Simon! Thanks so much!
@@2MinuteTennis hey Ryan have you ever discussed breathing technique during rallies or is this too subtle a subject to convey in terms of technique? ... exhaling on contact, recovery breaths before next contact point?
Correct - if you get a deep hard shot to the corner Automatically take the net. Plan on it before you hit the shot - say I will smoke this to corner and take the net edging a little closer to the corner you just hit - do not take the net in the court middle .
Fantastic tip Ryan. If Fed loses 51% of points from baseline then that completely explains why I’m losing matches
Yes! We go to net to win!!!
that is indeed 1 simple but powerful tip
Thanks so much Andy!!!
Yessir that is the GOAT.
Works for Tennis Clash too! 😁
Awesome Video. Like.
It's completely true, I remember winning only 3 crucial points by moving forward and volleying against an opponent way much better then me
Great!
It really depends on your skills and your opponent. If you have very strong volleys and smashes and are struggling at the baseline then attack the net. If your opponent has an amazing lobs and passing shots perhaps better to avoid the net. Federer obviously decided he had an advantage with his amazing net skills vs other players so chose to come in more. Serena just hates rallies - she's built for power not endurance, so she just attacks absolutely everything to end points fast. Other players (e.g. Djokovic or Halep) will look to rally from the base line more. In the currents pro men's game nearly everyone stays back other than the odd "surprise" serve and volley. If anything you see them drawing an opponent to the net with a drop shot to put them out-of-position meaning they can put away any return for a winner. So ending up at the net is generally a bad thing because you are too easy to pass.
Not a fan of Serena at all, but she smokes that ball......love your channel, great content and presentation.
Nice tip. But Federer stats from baseline are misrepresent. He plays after his serve more offensive(before baseline) and on the return he is naturally in defense. Sometimes on huge defense. So as for me it's nice ratio 49 % for him.
With the kind of guys I play, if I don't wait and watch the ball drop in, they're gonna call it out fore I reach the service line.
Wish we had YT way back in the 70's. I would have ended up being a much better player..
She flattened out down the line shot. If she hit ton of topspin the opponent would have more time. The ball crossed net on fairly low trajectory.
Did Federer always have that much success coming to the net, or is that something he began doing later in his career?
You can clearly see Serena at first wanting to go back to the middle of the baseline until she realizes what nice shot she made 😂
Baut great video
Nope she had already made her mind up to move to the net and her actions proved it. Serena is not as comfortable up at net versus baseline.
@@yakzivz1104 Yeah she ist isn't as comfortable, which is why she didn't decide to approach the net before or while hitting the shot
Look closely she does a little tap to the left and also her right leg ends up at her right side ready to push her back to the middle. If she already knew she would go to the net her leg would swing in front of her so she can run a split second faster
@@jv-hl9wn You are the only person who fails to realize that this video is in ultra slow motion, which can convey a different reality.
@@yakzivz1104 Ha the opposite is actually reality, it would even be clearer without the slow motion since you would see the stop in movement better
But maybe you live in your own reality
The fact that he won 49% of his points at the baseline and 71% at the net makes no sense in my opinion. If he goes to the net, it is because he is attacking his oppenent; in other words, he theoretically already took the advantage of the rally at this moment (just before moving to the net). It would be like saying: Federer won 71% of his points when he hit a shot that got his opponent in severe trouble. My conclusion: data bias. Your opinion?
While your point is correct, you also should consider the option "what if Federer did not go to the net." Getting the opponent into trouble doesn't mean you can win the point just from the baseline. Some players like Nadal are really good at recovering from a bad position given enough time. If you look at the Serena example in the video, if she did not go to the net, the opponent would've recovered and they would've just continued the baseline rally normally. Of course if you hit such a shot that the opponent cannot recover back no matter what, going to the net is irrelevant. Going to the net is to take away time from the opponent, not giving them time to recover.
Another variable is also the serve & volley approach. The returner may get a decent return and not be in trouble normally but because the server has approached, the returner doesn't have enough time to react properly to the next shot and the server can get the advantage or a point outright. Without the serve & volley approach if there is a decent return, the baseline rally begins
@@jirimusto9631 Loved your point!
My point is simply if Roger Federer cannot win more points than he loses at the baseline, then how can we use that as a strategy. Most recreational players hate going to the net. I talk to, and teach, recreational players every day and they do everything they can to avoid the net. My whole argument here is that whenAmateur players stay back they hurt their chances of winning. So this video was to help give the viewers another way to get to the net to increase the likelihood that they win. If you take 100 instances where a recreational player gets their opponent in trouble with a good baseline shot only two out of those 100 instances with the player attack the way we just saw Serena and DUSC player Attack. Why is that? Because recreational players, in general, don’t like going to the net. Roger Federer has No problem going to the net. No one has to talk him into it. This video was simply to talk people into going to the net more often and giving them away to get to the net more often.
@@2MinuteTennis thanks for your answer!
What about points won on his serve?
It's a pity, but Serena Williams forget to do split step before volley, as you teach us in your latest videos.😂🎾🇷🇺
@2MinuteTennis I really like you videos and tips, but with this one I very much disagree. Especially with the premise that simply going to the net will win you more matches. To me going to the net is very overrated and simply the fact that most of the pros avoid it as the plague is a proof enough. If it was an easy way of "winning more singles matches" don't you think more people would do it all of the time. Also your analysis of RFs wining percentages and stating that if he didn't do it, he would be losing in the first round is just not true to put it mildly. If he was winning 75% of his net points it is because before he went to the net he got his opponent in trouble. I am pretty sure that even if he didn't go to the net in those instances, once he got control of the rally, he would still manage to win the point in most cases. Also maybe the 25% of points he lost while going to the net, he could have won from the baseline?!?! which will again get him well above 49%. Fact is if you are not RF and you don't poses good ground game with which to control the rallies and get your opponent in trouble before you approach the net, plus (VERY IMPORTANT) the ability to volley AND hit overheads in your sleep, going to the net is a loosing proposition. Just ask the opponents of MEP over on the TennisTroll's channel :). Just to be clear, I am not saying "never go to the net", if you can construct the point in a way that you get your opponent in trouble, sure there is no harm in finishing the point early, but if you just wake up one morning and decide that from today I will be going to the net more and will win more matches, you will be bitterly disappointed.
1. Go to the net when you hit an excellent, deep, angled shot 2. Be able to hit a clean volley or overhead. This is reasonable, but you do have to be able to go all these things. Practice makes perfect.
He attacked the net because he came at the backend of the Sampras, Agassi, edberg that was the norm.
First!
Pls don’t use Serena as an example, she has no good moral. I’m sorry. I love to watch your tips but not Serena.
Sorry you feel that way. I love using her technique, strategy, etc. to help players learn and improve. She’s a once in a lifetime type of athlete and player. No player on tour is perfect. Thanks for the support!😊👍🎾
Unfortunately, the steroids is not detected.
Bruh what
