Tennis is a game of movement which of course means you must move your feet. First and foremost you must make sure you are split stepping when your opponent strikes the ball so when you land you will be on your toes and on balance and will be able to react quickly to the area the ball is going to.
The two absolute facts in movement are running or sprinting to get to the ball then adjusting your feet once you have arrived into the vicinity of the ball. Sometimes, you may need to ONLY adjust your feet to the ball and other times you will need to sprint to the ball then adjust.
And sometimes you will just run to the ball and hit it back with NO adjustment steps because there is no time.
First, when you run to any ball, you would sprint just like you would in a race (very short race) and when you adjust, you stop running, but you are still bouncing on your toes either around, up to, or back to establish balance for effective body loading to hit the shot. goy
