Re: Volley questions for Coach

I did answer this: You do not volley from the Baseline unless caught off guard. In this case Novak did a half volley as the ball came to him quick. This is not a standard practice. Swinging volley is a different case altogether. In some cases if the player has insufficient time for a regular ground ...

Re: Volley questions for Coach

Let's stick to the topic.

Here's the Semifinal of 1985 Australian Open. Both the players are doing Serve and Volley but no one has volleyed from the Baseline. The first Volley is hit around the T area and the 2nd more inside.

Re: Volley questions for Coach

You do not use volleys to trick your opponents. You can wrong foot them if the situation is right. You do not volley from the Baseline unless you are caught unguard. Volleys are generally hit from the Service line or close to the net. Grip Continental Blocking motion No backswing but follow through ...

Re: Which Strings do you use or prefer?

I like RPM blast 16 gauge strings.
Thin strings give you more punch.

Re: PTF friendly matches and FUN!

MPA Naseer Sahib certainly beat me in the areas of lies, deception, and disinformation.

The true story is that drubbing by me was so confidence sapping that he suffered a panic attack after the match and he was to be rushed to Kulsum international hospital for health rehabilitation.

Re: PTF friendly matches and FUN!

Ha ha. For sure he won the disinformation here in this Forum. The fact of the matter as witnessed by Pir Jamal Nazir Sahib is that MPA Naseer Sahib was totally clueless as to how and where to Serve and how to hit his Ground Strokes. In the entire set he won two points by accident. I won the set by t...

Re: PTF friendly matches and FUN!

We played one set.

MPA Naseer Sahib was allowed to Serve from the T area. He was allowed to hit in my Doubles Court.
I was allowed to hit in his Singles Court.
In the entire set the MPA won two points and that too by accidental hits.
I won 6-0.

Re: Fast flat serve

I am familiar with these tips. Good ones.

Since MPA Naseer is self-proclaimed High Performance Tennis Coach, I would request him to demonstrate on court couple of flat serves for the benefit of my students.

Re: PTF friendly matches and FUN!

1. If I remember I played one on two Doubles against Advocate Bukhari Sahib and Mian Yousaf Jamal Sahib. I had won that match.

2. About MPA Naseer Sahib playing with me. Since he could not return any of my balls his claim that he taught me some elbow position is beyond me.
