008 – Tennis Strategy With Jorge Capestany USPTA and PTR Master Professional
How to beat a steady baseliner and a team that plays one up and one back is the focus of todays episode with Master USPTA and PTR Professional Jorge Capestany. Jorge is the author of “The On-Court Guide To Tennis Strategy – How To Beat Every Style of Player”
S0………What are the best tennis strategies to beat the different styles of players that are out there? Well today’s guest, Jorge Capestany wrote the book on how to do exactly this and shares tactics on how to beat two of the most common styles of play, The steady baseliner and teams that play one up and one back.
I decided to start with the two most common and we will definitely cover them all. What I like most about this cool little book, that is packed with great content, is that:
1. He defines each style of player ( so you can say to yourself, yeah, I get so frustrated with that kind of player)
2. He tells you 6-7 things to try to do against this style of player
3. And then he tells you 3 things to AVOID
How to Beat A Steady baseliner
Seven Tactics To Try
1. Be Patient
2. Look for chances too come into the net
3. Use drop shots to get them off the baseline
4. Attack second serves
5. Serve and volley more than usual
6. Mix up the pace
7. Work this player up and back
Three Things To Avoid
1. Don’t become impatient and overhit
2. Don’t get lured into a baseline battle
3. Don’t get lured into using a game plan that you don’t own
How To Beat Teams That Play One-Up and One-Back
Six Tactics To try
1. Get to the net at all costs
2. Hit volleys and overheads between them
3. Use the Back to Back Mindset
4. Be a “Ball Hog” at the net if your partner stays back
5. Try lobbing the return more often
6. Return crosscourt more than normal
Three Things To Avoid
1. Don’t get lured into playing one-up and one-back with them
2. Don’t overhit the return
3. Don’t overhit your volleys
