Tennis Tip: Understanding the Elements Outdoors

Coaches Corner Web

Spring is in the air!  Arvid Swan, Northwestern University Head Men's Tennis Coach and Director of Nike Tennis Camps, stresses the importance of understanding the elements and adapting your shots when outdoors.  "As we move into the outdoor season, it is really important to understand the impact elements have on your game.  You need to add more topspin when playing with the win and flatten out when against the wind.  Secondly, you need to also consider the cross wind and play safe targets when significant cross wind is impacting a practice or match.  Lastly, overhead and serve practice in windy conditions is also incredibly important as it takes some time to get used to hitting both shots with wind and sun in play."
