This episode is a deep dive into the serve, one of the most technically demanding and consequential shots in tennis. Steve and Dave break down the mechanics from grip and trophy position to pronation and ball toss, making the case that most players are leaving significant free points on the table simply because they were never taught to serve correctly from the start.

The conversation covers everything from the kinetic chain and the role of the legs, to common faults Steve sees repeatedly on court and the drills he uses to fix them. The message throughout is clear: the serve is the one shot you have complete control over, and there is no excuse for not making it a weapon.
