Hi Alois! I fractured my finger a week ago, and I was wondering if you knew how long it would take before I "should" go back to playing again. I tried it a little last night after you answered my question on "best serve", and it felt about 75%. Sorry for the different question!
Hi Nikolas,
Not sure on this one. I think a doctor may be better qualifies to tell you. It is difficult with a broken finger because you use it so much when playing. Pain is probably one indicator that you can use.
Don't just hit your third ball attack as fast as you can every time. Firstly it is a risky strategy and secondly your opponent starts to anticipate your shots. Think about varying your spin, speed and placement. In this master class we explain what makes a great third ball attack and Jeff shares some of his personal favourite third ball tips.

I recently broke two of my fingers and started playing again after 9 days. The doctor said I should have waited at least twice as long as that. So I guess you should wait at least 18 days and a bit longer would be better. You should still ask a doctor, since there would be differences between injuries.

Thanks. He said 2 weeks of no right hand, but I went a little early! :)
Be careful! There is always time to play when it gets better.
