    Want to improve your timing in tennis and finally start hitting cleaner shots? What is usually the problem on our “bad” days when the timing goes off? The challenge with timing is that everyone’s ideal stroke timing is different. Depending on how fast, deep, high, or spinny the ball is flying toward you, the amount of time you have to execute your swing will be different.
    So in today’s video, let’s uncover the secrets to improving your timing so that you can start hitting some of the cleanest shots of your life…

    I would love a video on the perfect contact point for the forehand and whether your dominant eye matters or not.

      You bet! Thanks for the suggestion.

      Yeah...
      It's definitely viewed/ridiculed as "controversial method"
      and I say that because I've heard many YT coaches
      ( 2minute tennis, Intuitive tennis, top tennis training, and even former WTA Meike Babel)
      say it's absolutely nonsense with "no evidence" that this translates.
      Patrick Mouratoglou appears to be the only one that's teaching it and is convinced it's 100% fact.

    • @saharshenabothula9972
      @saharshenabothula9972 Před 9 měsíci +1

      According to Mouratoglou, serves are also affected by the dominant eye. Maybe you could test that too?

      @tijgertjekonijnwordopgegeten Před 9 měsíci +2

      @@RonnieJamesOsbourne Exactly, that's why it is so interesting as multiple good coaches seem to completely disagree here.
      But I also think Intuitive Tennis misunderstood what Mouratoglou is claiming (I've also encountered this misunderstanding in multiple comments on yt).
      In his video he explained that you can still hit the ball while using your non-dominant eye which suggests that he thinks Mouratoglou says that you can't even hit the ball when you use your wrong eye, but Mouratoglou is only claiming that it works better if you adjust your technique to the dominant eye.
      One of the youtubers who might be on Mouratoglou's side is Karue as he mentioned in one of his videos that he's right eye dominant, which suggests he thinks it has some importance.
      Both sides seem plausible to me, so it's interesting to hear other perspectives.

      Yes; to what Patrick is claiming regarding that you can still hit the serve
      using a non dominant eye toss, and stance, but what Nick from IT is saying that it's nonsense
      to the degree that it doesn't even apply becuase your eyes are closed at contact.
      Same goes to the internal rotation snap on the serve (a la Pete Sampras)
      which Patrick teaches as well, which Nick thinks is nonsense.
      (Nick did have a video about this on his channel early on
      featuring Sampras, but doesn't teach this and actually doesn't advocate it either)
      These questions were asked by a student of his; Shamir,
      while they were doing a serve tennis lesson....easy to find.
      I'm not saying either is right or wrong....
      But it's interesting that YT instructors and Ex pros are calling out,
      throwing shade at Patrick's teachings without mentioning his name directly.

    Omini courts in Japan! It takes me about a week to get back my timing on omini. Ball tends to skid low fast or just die (doesn’t jump up high like hard courts or clay). Found some clay courts here in Kobe so much better than omini. Court surface matters too!

      @germanslice Před 4 měsíci

      @@RacquetFlex I think its important to know the strokes and also their different contact points because that's where half the unforced errors come from when using the wrong contact point on a ball that needs a different contact point. Like hitting the flat forehand on a ball that's too close to the body cramps the swing instead of changing to a different contact point. This is why I mentioned the buggy whip to dig the ball out with soon as you sense you will be late with the swing to the ball.
