Doc's Tip of the Evening -- Strategy

A Strategy that is quite important for match play and not adapted by enough players and can be used at all levels is called SHOT TOLERANCE.
It is simply designating a number that you decide upon yourself in which you will hit that many balls into the court every single point played. Now, obviously the higher the number the better.
So lets say you decide to hit 6 balls into play every single point. That's a great strategy. You have a shot tolerance of 6. Keep in mind that tennis is a game of unknown factors. Control ONLY what you can control. If your opponent hits a winner, then accept that and go to the next point. If you have an easy ball on the second shot, put it away, that's that. Shot Tolerance is only a basis for you to have an overall strategy when you play. Your opponents will likely miss within a rally of 4 balls in most matches you play.
what do you think nadankey's shot tolerance is? dd
