Hello, everyone. This is Nathan from FirstServeUniversity.com.

Speaker:

You're a tactical specialist, giving you advice on how to win more matches.

Speaker:

Today, let's dive right into a common pattern of play in tennis.

Speaker:

A pattern is something that you see over and over again.

Speaker:

One of those is the inside out forehand to backhand.

Speaker:

But how do you get out of that when somebody's pinned you in a corner?

Speaker:

One of the best solutions that you can do, especially if you want to get to your forehand,

Speaker:

is to hit a backhand high and heavy to the corner near their backhand.

Speaker:

Now, of course, the opponent's probably going to still get to the forehand,

Speaker:

but the important part about that shot that you're hitting is the height.

Speaker:

What that does, it makes it very difficult for your opponent to hit a hard ball to hurt you.

Speaker:

And it also allows you time to run around to your forehand and decide if you want to attack

Speaker:

their backhand or go inside in and put them on the run.

Speaker:

Try this in your next match and see how it works.
