Customer Reviews

Excellent book to improve your game.

This is an excellent book on the subject. This is the second tennis drill book I have read, and this one is slightly better. The 100 drills are explained in the most efficient and concise way possible. In tennis, a picture is worth a thousand words. And, the author understands that perfectly well. Almost every single drill is clearly illustrated which greatly enhances your understanding of what that specific drill is about. The author covers all the tennis drill situations you would encounter, single, threesome, doubles, and groups. I am a former college player. I have played, watched, and studied tennis all my life. But, I probably knew only half of the drills mentioned in this book. In other words, this book taught me a lot of skills I could focus on practicing on the tennis court to improve my game. In tennis, there is no finish line. You are never too good. But, this book will help you get as good as you can or want to get, and have a lot of fun doing it. I strongly recommend it.

Good drills organized by the skills you want to develop.

Keep your game fresh and advance your skills with these drills and games designed to sharpen single aspects of your game. I never knew what the skills were that I lacked or how to get them until I read this book. Good for players and a must for coaches.
