I would only add that it’s not just hitting to the inside groundstroke, it’s hitting to the inside groundstroke while making the returner move to the outside while hitting the inside groundstroke. That is what almost always forces the returner to pull the ball.

[@2MinuteTennis]

You are correct, and I mentioned that in the video and in the video description.

Is it more important to react to inside/outside balls or shading the direction of the ball? Cause I have also heard before to shade wide when serve goes wide, shade middle when serve goes middle etc. They both seem to make sense but also seem to be contradictory.

I’ve been coaching for 27 years. The first 20 years of my coaching I taught what you said. Shading with the ball (which never felt right to me for some reason). Then I spoke with Gigi Fernandez and she taught me to predict using inside/outside ground strokes and it all clicked for me. Yes they contradict. Try this and see if it works for you. This is what I teach all of my students now. Thanks for watching and commenting!

At the club level, very often a doubles player stands very close to the net when his partner is serving. I have a forehand that's powerful enough to hit this net player in the body most of the time. Instead of realizing that he should not have stood so close to the net if he can't volley (handle my power), he would get mad at me for being "mean". Please give me your thoughts. Do you think he is entitled to an easy put-away volley?

Ryan could use a video on how to rotate turns for doubles Tennis. Haven’t been able to find a video or website explaining this and always gets confused who is serving and which side

[@2MinuteTennis]

Are you confusing tennis with pickleball?

I am 52 and I crouch down if I see a hundred dollar bill on the ground. Hahe Great job on the video Coach Ryan and I will try hitting my serve into my opponent and jam today in doubles. Thank you

I think the disclaimer here should be that this works if the server has a decent serve. I’ve tried to follow the reciprocal rule of covering the middle after a serve out wide and the results were inconsistent. The server was weak

[@2MinuteTennis]

Thanks for your thoughts!

@@2MinuteTennis One video I hope you make is explaining why on the rec level below 5.0 most players do not consistently hold serve (from my experience it’s ~50%) against players their own strength

Hello!!! Please tell me in which state do you teach tennis?

[@svarodzic]

When I serve in doubles I have only one thought how to get into the box! :)))))

[@atheistcory4174]

Entirely reliant on accuracy of serving which most club players do not possess.

[@2MinuteTennis]

Not true. Net player pays attention to where the ball goes… then moves accordingly.

[@kingtrawal]

what is inside groudstroke on the Ad side?

[@2MinuteTennis]

The ground stroke toward the inside of the court. Whichever one that is.
