The Tennis Ball

At the top of the list of things to focus on is the tennis ball. “Keep your eye on the ball” should be more than a platitude. If you are serving, try to watch the ball until it leaves your racket strings. If you are receiving the serve, follow the ball with your eyes from the toss, to the point of contact, across the net, and toward your racket. Don’t worry about whether the serve is in or out until after you have swung at the ball. There is no penalty for calling a shot out after you hit it. Also concentrate on the ball throughout the point. Watch it when your opponent is preparing to hit and when you are hitting.
