Just Practicing Serve and Return

Strategy

Your email caught my eye, and I wanted to clarify something.  Would the logic still apply to doubles or do rallies tend to last longer in doubles?

Thank you for all you do

Hi RJ,

Rallies tend to be about the same length in doubles. The serve and return are still of equal importance.

The serve in particular is crucial as the receiver only have half the area to cover.

Gerada v Lu

Once again Alois and Jeff discuss a great match from the PingSkills Classic. This is the first quarter final between the number 1 seed Simon Gerada and Percy Lu. Without giving too much away, just make sure you watch the incredible backhand that Percy Lu hits in the 4th set. It really is the shot of the tournament.
