Great analysis of a serve to strive for. Thanks
Thank you! Keep working on it and keep me updated on your progress! Best, John
Submitted my serve today for an analysis ! Ty
Very good analysis John 👍
Thanks Jack. Happy Thanksgiving to you and the family! Best, John
Thanks for this great video 👍
You are welcome! Kindly, John
The request to the right of his head (1:45) was an eye opener for me. I know I have it behind! Great content John!
Hi Mike, Thanks for the comment and feedback. Keep me updated on your progress. Best, John
Agreed! I felt uncertain about putting the racquet on the side or behind the head, too. Thanks for pointing that out!@@PerformancePlusTennis
Get underneath the ball. Thanks for reinforcing that, it's something I overlooked
Thanks...let me know how your serve is coming along. Best, John
Fantastic video John. I really enjoyed the simplicity of his service motion and how you explained every detail throughout the stroke. I’m an older player with a bad knee and I can’t get into that deep knee bend to spring up into the ball. I think that problem keeps me from obtaining a good racquet drop . Do you have any advice for me to help compensate my dilemma? Thanks
Thanks for your feedback and great question. You should be able to achieve a good range of motion, even if you’re not bending your knees much. I would have to see your serve to help you, but I’m guessing there’s some other thing out of sequence that is limiting your Racket drop. Reply back if you’d like me to take a look at your serve. Best, John.
Great slow motion presentation.
Thank you! Kindly, John
Nice video & analysis! How would you compare his serve to Fed's? Is he as accurate with his placement? It seems his feet are closer together so probably easier to copy for a rec player
Hi, I don't think his placement / accuracy is at Fed's level...yet. But, it should be if he practices relentlessly. His clean movement has so much potential! Best, John
xlnt lesson, succinct
Thank you! Best, John
Hi John, great video. Could you do an analysis of the serve of Arthur Cazaux please? he seems to have a very strong serve for his height (6 foot) - he attributes that to the fact that he used to be a high level handball player before ultimately chsoing tennis, and therefore has a good throwing motion. He did really well at the Australian Open.
Yes, I can definitely do a review on his serve. Thanks for the suggestion. Kindly, John .
So many younger players now have an abbreviated serve. My serve has really improved by trying to copy them. I tried the Sampras/Federer pendulum motion and I just can't get it right.
Stick with what works for you...the simpler, the better! Kindly, John
sorry but what is the difference??
Abbreviated is like Roddick, Tiafoe, Rafter, Tomic, Wawrinka etc. Both arms go up pretty much together. Whereas players like Federer throw the racquet arm out and behind them before it then rises. @@pacoin51
Hi John, love the serve videos! I notice we can still see Holger’s left hand on the right side of his body at contact. Should we pull the left arm down and across to the right instead of down and left? There’s some disagreement about this between coaches. Thanks, David
Hi David, Thanks for your great feedback and question, which is an excellent contribution to the video. The left arm (for a righty) plays an important role in the timing and control of torso during the upward swing to contact. In general, the tossing arm will fall toward the target, keeping the body in control and alignment as you rotate and drive upward into contact. Of course we see players like Murray, Thiem, Kyrgios, etc, presenting the left arm behind to the left at the end of the serve. But in every case you will see the left holding the balance on the right side prior to contact. Here is Murry: czcams.com/video/v-PfWEXkggo/video.htmlsi=qsb6Kvuih0WiSzVB. Here is Aliasssime: czcams.com/video/RvD33cz3eAk/video.htmlsi=DGX5igooD9wRCB3O. So why throw the left arm back? Counter balance...it's that simple! I hoop this helps and makes sense. Best, John
Great, thank you!
@@dwienner4 Thanks David! Kindly, John
7:42 - 7:44. How does Rune achieve such a beautiful motion from his trophy position to the racket drop. Is he letting the racket fall behind him via gravity? To me on frame by frame analysis it looks like the right elbow remains stationary and he lets the racket fall causing the shoulder to externally rotate and palm to point to the sky, this feels very uncomfortable when I try to copy it via shadow swing.
Thanks for your excellent question. The racquet drop is triggered by the upward drive and rotation of the shoulders. There is no attempt the make a swing...the arm is relaxed and the swing is a natural result of the body movement, much like the feeling of throwing a ball. The arm is a sling that throws the racquet into the ball. I don't see where is palm is facing up. This would be caused by the shoulder rotating back as you mentioned, and weaken his swing. I hope this all makes sense. Best, John
I have wondered that "hit the hat from your head" serving method. It never made sense to me. Go Rune go!
You mean the "Party Hat" idea? Well, it's a gimmick...some players probably would knock hat off, but I don't think Rune would! :-) Best, John
Yea party hat, just didnt recall the name of Party Hat, thanks =)@@PerformancePlusTennis

Thank you Vladimir! I hope you find useful instruction on the channel! Best, John
