DOC'S TIP OF THE DAY -- GROUNDSTROKE TECHNIQUE

As a general tenet, if you hit a groundstroke when the ball is above the top of the net (ie, at the top of the bounce), try to limit the amount of travel the racquet moves upward on the follow through. It is imperative you stay on on the same plane on the follow through and wrap around. AND you can actually follow through slightly downwards, the higher the contact point is above the net. ay
