- Here are 5 of the most common mistakes that i see on the tennis court and how to fix them!
No matter how good you are, you can always prepare earlier, recover quicker, make better use of your kinetic chain, react to oncoming serves more effectively and hit a bigger and better second serve!
Which if these 5 mistakes are you most guilty of?
(My guess is that it’s at least 3 of them!)

1.Beat the bounce
2. Beat the hit ( be ready before other person hits the ball ) recover quickly, move towards ball fluidly
3. keep the spare hand on raqute holding the frame on forehand and backhand because it allows u to coil to give more power
4. return with coming forward before the other person hits the ball
5. work practice on safer 2nd server by adding net clearance
and spin
Love to watch that ball - gotta see if it's going in and admire my shot, slightly offended that my opponent keeps getting it back.
Haha!! I know right, very rude of them!
Well done! 100% correct. We all make these mistakes (and see others make them all the time). Thx for highlighting them, together with your fixes.
If I were to add a Bonus No. 6 mistake, I would say this.
Players at all levels too often hit too flat of a ball with too less margin for error, generating too many errors. So the fix would be: Think intentionally about hitting more “up on the ball” to generate more topspin and benefit from more safety margin, and then execute!
I definitely agree! Hitting with ‘shape’ is super important, but most take the shortcut and hit flat. Thanks for your great insights!
It's like you see me and you told MY 5 biggest mistakes 😮
Maybe I’ve been watching you?! 👀
@@TheTennisMentoryup!!! (You is 'generalized')
Fr😭😭
Excellent summary. I am sometimes guilty of watching my shot instead of preparing for the return, and losing valuable time to get back into position.
Very relevant to recreational and club players
One of the best tennis coaching videos I’ve watched, thanks !!
Oh wow, thanks for your kind words!
Man....after the first minute i knew this vid was made for me lol
You know it! 😉
Enjoyed this one! Would love to see a video like this focused on top mistakes when playing doubles specifically.
This is a great idea… Coming soon!
Very useful and straight to the point.
Good stuff. Fundamentals, and easy to comprehend.
Great video, one of the best advice tennis videos I have seen.
Wow, thanks Warren! 🙏
Thank u one of the most useful videos I have seen on the subject. U have summarized it so well.
Thank-You! Very informative.
Excellent video! Thanks
What more can be said! ❤️ Excellent teaching and lesson. 🙏
🙏🙏
Excellent video - thanks!
Great presentation of fundamentals often overlooked. I do like the starter step on serve return before making the split step. I've slowly implemented that and feel it gives me a little more rhythm in preparing to react to the serve. Also I do work on my serve nearly every time I go out to the court. My second is just about as effective as my first though I always hit a second with a little slice or kick occasionally. But what you say about people not practicing serves enough especially second serves is true. I'll tell you a mind set I brought into tennis from baseball. Okay when a pitcher gets behind in the count he doesn't dramatically reduce the speed of the ball or keeps about same speed and more less same with the serve. If you just hit 50 or so serves every time you come out which will take about 20 minutes you'll find yourself get more consistent and non chalant about keeping good pace on your serve. Hit some good hard flat serves and then hit some slice or topspin serves with the same arm speed. Then when you play you'll have a good first and second serve.😂
Great tips. Thankyou
Very clear, and very useful lessons for a club player like me. Thank you
Great tips ... Will surely apply all of them in my next session ....
Thank you for this!
This was the most helpful tennis video for me. Thank u so much.
I’m glad you found it useful, thanks for watching!
Great observation & analysis & solutions as well.
🙏🙏
Simple but very useful tips. Thank you !
It’s the simple bits we forget! Thanks for watching
Thanks guv. Very helpful indeed. Loved the sound of racquet hitting the ball on your BHs.
Great! very useful video. Especially the first 2 tips. Important also for better players. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for your comments
Brilliant, I worked on mistake number two, stopped ball watching and got back into the ready position, which in turn helped my mistake number one, late contact. Suddenly I had so much more time to hit the ball, everything started to work perfectly. Just what I needed. Thank you so much.
Gerry
The tips to correct are the real meat of the vid. Well done young chap. Bravo😊
Thanks Gary!
Quality content mate keep it up !

Amazing video! I just missed a quick recap at the end
Thanks, it really helps
My pleasure
Incredible tips, thank you very much. ❤
You're so welcome!
best vid recently. so clearly described❤❤❤
Thanks Peter! 🙏
Very good advices 😊
Glad it was helpful!
Very good video!
🙏🙏
Cheers.... just rewatching this.... that beat the bounce is a great drill.
Thanks for the content. I am def guilty of the first two at times. Usually play on clay and recently played a match on synth grass and the speed of the ball off the surface made it imperative to quicken prep. It was a challenge!
The surface makes such a difference and so it’s important to try to develop your skills on all surfaces! I, like you, play mainly on clay so transitioning to a fast surface can be tricky!
Great tips. I make most of them
Love this instrumental video. Thanks.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it 😊
Much appreciation for all these great tips. I have been attempting to follow these tips over the past few weeks as I am guilty of commiting all these errors and there is an improvement in my game no doubt about it. (70 years old, self taught, lefty pusher- the worst!)
Thanks for sharing, I’m pleased they’re working… keep it up! Ps. ‘The worst’ for your opponent! 😉
Great video!! I'm guilty of all of them 😭 specially with my 2nd serve... hopefully I will be more aware of my mistakes thanks to these points and your fixes.
Let me know how it goes and if I can help!
Another brilliant video keep it up
Thanks buddy 🙏
Breathing properly! Thanks😊
Great information about 2nd serve
Glad it was helpful!
Super excellent!!! Thank you!
Glad you liked it! Thanks for your comment
Outstanding video!! I am guilty of all :)
Ive been trying to work on my one handed backhand, thanks Ash
Happy to help!
Thanks for the tips!
My pleasure! Thanks for commenting
What a useful video! Thank you very much coach. It helped me to see some of my mistakes (all of them) =)
Glad it helped, thanks for your comment! 🙏
I make many of these mistakes all the time unfortunately. Thanks for the great pointers. Love the way you explain them. PS I am a big fan of your 5 minute warm up
Thanks Gordon, glad you’ve been using the 5 minute warm up. I’m thinking of making an updated version!
I think my worst one is that I'm watching my shut instead of recovering. Go video tho.
This was great. I’m guilty of all 5 plus many more.
Great video!
Thanks!🙏
Look at that replay graph! Great video
Yes , I constantly make these mistakes..thank you for citing it out
You’re welcome, thanks for your comment!
Great video, very useful and helpful lessons! Did you switched to the Gravity Pro? What is your opinion about this racquet? It's your favorite Head racquet? Thank you.
Definitely make 2nd service mistakes & found all other 4 mistakes really helpful
Great tips and glad to have found your channel. Number 1 is the one I'm most guilty of.
Welcome! I hope you enjoy my past and future videos too!!
These are really the most common mistakes of club players, that I’m been trying to fight. Very clear. Good drills. Thanks from Lisbon.
Thanks for your comments! Obrigado 🙏
Beat the bounce, beat the hit. Love it 🎉
Such a simple concept but it works so effectively! 🙌
Excellent presentation. I would love to get your view on how to practice cross court 1st/2nd serves from the LHS serving to RHS vs. RHS to LHS. Its a different angle for right handers and I feel very uncomfortable as I am going against my natural motion.
Look at that, a video made 100% for me. I’m guilty of a little bit of all of them throughout match play. Great video, thank you!
Great tips. I just hit kick serves (my second serve) all the time, adding a little side spin to vary it. Most club players are challenged by a rolling serve no matter the pace. Big booming First serves are for when you’re up 40-love…as a club player.
Happy New Year! Great tips! RE: Recovery, would it be appropriate to say recover to a point that bisects opponent's possible angle of return? Have a Super '24!
Fantastic! So glad the AI found you for me as I will happily subscribe and not just because we use the same racquet 🙂
Great to have you, welcome!!
would LOVE to have you review the Gravity Pro please...@@TheTennisMentor
Would also like top 5 doubles mistakes
great video, ashley. the first four mistakes are definitely big ones for me, the fifth is a bit less relevant since my serve is currently in "transition" ...
Thanks Paul, I hope it helps you… good luck with the serve!
Love the tips and the way you explain them! Don’t love the shushumushu jacket with a mic 😂
Haha… yes, sorry. I won’t be wearing that one again!! 😅 (Ps. Shushumushu is a great way to put it!)
thank you
You’re welcome!
Love this video. I make all the mistakes. I have a question. I feel I am not able to track the incoming ball after it bounces. Or when I am moving I am not able to track the ball.
Is it only me or all players face the same issues?
Any drill to fix them?
I'd love to see something similar focused on the serve and serve return.
Guilty of all five mistakes. That's a very good clip. Thank you for that.
Glad to help! Start off by working on the first two!
Thanks
Some good take aways here I'm going to focus on keeping my spare hand on the racket as long as possible...
Muchas GRACIAS 👍🏽👍🇪🇦🇪🇦
De nada 😎
very good points. I think the easiest point to fix is to prepare early - before the ball bounces.
The simple ones are usually the best! Thanks for watching 😊
Very well structured! Thanks a lot. Yet, could you please give me a tip how to get more power on the kick serve? Thanks again.
Thanks for your comments. I’ve actually already made a video on that topic here: ua-cam.com/video/dVWe1ae9brw/v-deo.htmlsi=r_AcqsAJTAiY81-j
Check it out and let me know if you have further questions!
@@TheTennisMentor thanks a lot! Crystal clear!
We have to work in 2nd serve thks again Ashley 🙏✨!
💪💪
Use Continental Grip for you one handed topspin backhand? the strings of your racket are pointing slightly upwards at the contact point.
I got all of them! What do I win? Not tennis matches, for sure. Thanks a lot for these advices.
Haha! Don’t worry, you’re not alone!! Thanks for watching 🙏
Just about summed up my problems 😢
Hi Ash! Wouldn't you agree on the fact that on the single handed BH the upper body remains side on during the forward swing and it only rotates 45° after contacting the ball? Thanks as always for the video!
Yes, I’d definitely agree. Rotation is less than on a double handed BH but it’s still important to ensure that the force is generated from the legs up.
Brilliant! beat bounce, beat hit, two hands, two steps and second serve >> two beats, two hands, two steps and two serves: Four Twos.
I like it! 😁
SUPER.
🙏🙏
Agree that a lot of this is useful information, especially the thing about the serve. I practice my serve more than any other shot because you just put yourself at a huge disadvantage if you don't have a serve you can count on. The one shot I aim never to miss is my second serve. I want to know that my second serve is basically guaranteed to get the point started. It gives me confidence to really go all out on my first serve cos, hey, if I miss I can still get myself into the point. However, I did cringe a bit when you were talking about coiling the body. I'm not about to dispute that you need to coil and load your core and your legs, but the question about how much is important and depends largely on which is your dominant eye. I am right eye dominant, so with my forehand I don't want to turn as much as many coaches tell you to. If I turn too far, for example if I end up in a closed stance, I'm relying on my inaccurate left eye to tell me everything I need to know about the ball. My first coach drilled into me to turn so much that I was hitting all my forehands in a closed stance. I ended up with a wrist injury followed by a hand injury (De Quervain's tenosynovitis) because my timing was a few milliseconds off which meant I was constantly hitting the ball off centre, jerking my hand. I even asked my coach, why is this happening and he knew it was a timing issue, he just couldn't properly diagnose it. He just kept saying prepare the racket earlier. It didn't matter how early I prepared the racket because the ball was never where my left eye was saying it was. And on the backhand side, you said you should be able to rest your chin on your shoulder. For me, that's great advice, and it's pretty much what I already do, but that's because closing my stance and turning away from the court means my dominant eye is facing the whole court. But someone who is right handed but left eye dominant should absolutely not do this. It will ruin their read on the ball and screw up their timing. These players should turn less and keep their stance open deliberately so their left eye is directed towards the court. If you look at pro players you can pick up on which is their dominant eye. Zverev keeps his body mostly towards the court on his forehand. Watch Nadal serve and see how much he turns from the court. He can do that because he plays left and is right eye dominant. Zverev is right eye dominant, too, so he knows to keep his right eye to the court.
Thanks for your in depth comments. Eye dominance in tennis is certainly an interesting topic. Have you read any research on it?
Yep! Guilty on all 5 counts. Good advice
You are a magician 😮how do you know me so well!!
Eu cometo todos os 5 erros!!!
I do all 5, corrected them and come back to do these. 😂😂
Thanks for telling me my mistakes
Excellent, excellent tips. Thanks so much for identifying the problems and (more importantly) clearly describing ways to solve them. Appreciate the suggestions.
As a soundguy, I have a suggestion for your production: Don't put the mic under your clothing. Clip it to the chest or collar, basically anywhere that the mic element/foam windscreen will not make contact with the fabric. The audience doesn't care if the mic is seen, but it sure is distracting to hear that scratchy sound all the time. It's like opening a bag of crisps every time you move.

Hey Ashley if you don’t mind me asking what’s the name of model of the adidas jacket you’re wearing? I need to replace my old windbreaker and cannot find anything I like and yours look really cool. Thanks! 😊
Hey, of course it’s called adidas Running Run Icons 1/4 zip jacket in white
Cheers mate! ❤@@TheTennisMentor
This is me, through and through
Very good, but the one I do not fully agree is the use of the spare hand on your forehand. When like used in the video the hand is doing nothing, then it becomes a problem. The problem with the coil is, that some player tend to lean backwards and forget to keep the weight on the front foot. A very earyl separation of both hands will help if the front hand being used in an active way.
