Game sense

By Mike Hall, August 29, 2018

What is your Tennis IQ?

Do you consistently hit the shots you ‘own’?

On the changeovers, do you take time to assess what’s working and how you can exploit what is not working for your opponents?

Are you familiar with former touring pro Eliot Telstcher’s concept of ‘shot tolerance’?

It basically means how many balls are you willing to put in play before your opponent melts down due to lack of shot tolerance.

Does it register with you that a 29% first serve statistic with a double fault per game will have you finishing second in a field of two?

Here’s hoping you play your next match like a wise veteran.
