Forehand myths debunked: Former Top 100 ATP Pro, Jeff Salzenstein, is exposing 3 common myths that could be crippling your forehands potential. Most players make at least 1 of these 3 mistakes... Do you?https://goo.gl/Pa9UG6 The volley in tennis is one of those shots you would assume would be easy. You barely swing at the ball, and all you need to do is essentially block it back. Yet so many players miss the volley in tennis long or dump it in the net and have no idea why this is happening. The big problem is that there is a good chance that when you volley in tennis, you might have been taught the wrong technique. I have numerous players come to me explaining they have been taught to turn sideways on both there forehand and backhand volleys. When I played at the highest level of tennis, I can guarantee you that the best volleyers did not turn sideways on most of their volleys in tennis. Turning sideways immediately puts you in the wrong position to hit a volley in tennis. It is also much harder to judge the distance of the ball if you re turned completely sideways with only your front eye available to make important split second adjustments. So to fix this "sideways" problem, I encourage plays to focus more on "facing" the net which is the opposite of what most traditional tennis pros will tell you to do. The subtle sideways turn happens naturally so you don t have to manufacture it by tuning more. Next time you go out on the court, see if you can keep your belly button facing the net longer when you make your first move on your tennis volley. Learn to play more with your hands at the net and move through volleys instead of trying to be robotic and turning sideways right away.
