Strategy
Hi!
As the title suggests, i have trouble from using forehand in the backhand area and getting back to the forehand area using appropriate footwork so then i can be ready for the next hit. i'm already trying to work on it but i can't get there in time when there is a fast return.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Hi,
When you make the pivot forehand (forehand from backhand corner) you need to either make a strong shot or a shot that places the ball well. You are really committing to the shot by being so far out.
You can make the crossover footwork for the next ball. This will get you there faster but again you are in a bad position to get back for the next ball.
The key is to get that pivot stroke effective.
Fast flat rallies are ideal for short pimples. To counter this you can play with a lot of spin. Watch this video for detailed tips on how to play against short pimples.

You need to make sure your footwork is good so that you are in a balanced position when you hit the ball.
