Good shot selection and good court positioning. But once the point develops past those first few shots, it seems like we get into jungle ball and it can become pretty helter skelter. Stay true to good doubles court positioning and shot selection no matter how long it takes to close out the point. -------------------------- Brent Abel - WebTennis Instructional Blog - www.WebTennis.com - 1984 USA National 35s Hardcourt Doubles Champion (w/ Rob Olson) - 2009 USA National 60s Hardcourt Singles Champion - 2009 USA Team - 60s World VonCramm Cup - Silver Medalists (Perth AU) - 2009 World 60s Individual Championship Singles Quarterfinalist.

The key to being able to play a consistent tennis topspin forehand groundstroke is always creating enough space away from the path of the incoming ball that gives you swing freedom. And, that spacing also allows you to move forward through the ball as you play your tennis topspin forehand groundstroke. What's your #1 question about your footwork on your tennis topspin forehand?

What's your #1 question? Foot work is so important for your tennis topspin forehand. Quick decisive footwork allows you to create 'spacing' to the path of the incoming ball which gives you swing freedom. The other great benefit of good footwork on your tennis topspin forehand groundstroke is you could approach the net if the opportunity presents itself.
