Tennis Tactics: Winning Patterns of Play


Match point. Your opponent hits a deep-sliced approach shot to your backhand. To neutralize this attack and regain control of the point, you retaliate with a crosscourt passing shot, low with topspin. Your opponent is forced to return a weak volley to the open court, and you win the point with a passing shot down the line. Game, set, and match.

This is just one of the many winning strategies you'll find in Tennis Tactics: Winning Patterns of Play. It's the first book to break down what shots to make and when to make them. You'll learn how to plan your shot selection in competition and put yourself in the best possible position to win every point.

Based on an extensive USTA study of actual tournament play by the game's top athletes, Tennis Tactics describes 58 patterns—repeated shot sequences—that will emphasize your strengths and exploit your opponents' weaknesses. It contains 63 drills that show you how to practice the patterns and make them part of your routine during match play. Competitive players, coaches, and instructors will love the book's simple approach for practice and play.

Tennis Tactics reviews sound, time-tested strategic principles, then explains how they apply to patterns of play. You'll learn how to choose patterns that fit your style of play, whether you're an all-court player, a counterpuncher, an aggressive baseliner, or a serve-and-volleyer.

Next, the book provides strategies and tactics for different areas of the court. You'll learn how to execute 58 patterns for

- backcourt (26),
- midcourt (8),
- net play (8), and
- defensive play (16).

For each pattern, the book describes and illustrates corresponding practice drills that will help you get an edge on the competition. A Pattern Finder chart helps you quickly locate the shot combinations you want to study and incorporate into your game.

Make your practice sessions pay off in competition by using the drills and mastering the patterns in Tennis Tactics: Winning Patterns of Play.

Play Zen-Sational Tennis (Volume 1) So, what is this Zen stuff all about? The word Zen is from the Japanese pronunciation of the Chinese word Chán, which can be approximately translated as "meditation" or "meditative state." Ok, everyone knows you must get into this “meditative state” or “zone state” in order to play really well. You also hear a lot of players say that they need to focus well when they play. Unfortunately, these players don’t know the very specific things to actually meditate on, focus on, or what to think about when they play. No, you don’t have to go to India, Japan or China and sit in a cave to learn to meditate or what to focus on because I will give you everything you need to do and know in this book. And, when you focus on the right things, you will find your game improving very rapidly. Specifically, you will: • Learn the “Core Principles” of the mental game • Learn what “Seeing the Ball” really means • Learn the natural way of breathing when hitting a ball • Learn what proper relaxation really means and why it is so critical • Learn specific reasons why you miss a shot and how to fix it on the spot • Learn the “Mother of all Tips” that will absolutely groove your strokes • Learn some terrific drills to help you practice your mental game David Ranney has been studying the mental game for over 25 years. He was ranked nationally 6th in Singles and 3rd in doubles, represented the U.S. at Junior Wimbledon, played on the Junior Davis Cup team and played for the University of Southern California when they were National Champions. However, as good as he was, David used to yell and scream on the tennis court. He couldn't ever seem to win matches against players that were higher ranked. He never felt that in important matches he played well enough to win. He got really frustrated and angry with himself and he didn't know how to stop. After years of playing with intense frustration, he took two lessons from Tim Gallwey when he was in his 30’s. That experience changed his tennis life forever and set him on the path of playing the mental game.

Game, Set, Match: Billie Jean King and the Revolution in Women's Sports When Billie Jean King trounced Bobby Riggs in tennis's Battle of the Sexes in 1973, she placed sports squarely at the center of a national debate about gender equity. In this winning combination of biography and history, Susan Ware argues that King's challenge to sexism, the supportive climate of second-wave feminism, and the legislative clout of Title IX sparked a women's sports revolution in the 1970s that fundamentally reshaped American society.
While King did not single-handedly cause the revolution in women's sports, she quickly became one of its most enduring symbols, as did Title IX, a federal law that was initially passed in 1972 to attack sex discrimination in educational institutions but had its greatest impact by opening opportunities for women in sports. King's place in tennis history is secure, and now, with Game, Set, Match, she can take her rightful place as a key player in the history of feminism as well. By linking the stories of King and Title IX, Ware explains why women's sports took off in the 1970s and demonstrates how giving women a sporting chance has permanently changed American life on and off the playing field.

45 Love: My Yearlong Quest to Fulfill a Lifelong Dream in the Sport of Tennis "Ray Krueger's story - that of a 275-pound teenager who fears leaving his own home for fear of running into his own father, but goes on to become an elite, top 20 tennis player in the 45-and-over age division - veritably glows with the incandescent passion that enables some lucky souls to experience participatory sports as a glorious, life-shaping and transforming experience. The weekend warrior is alive and well and in good hands with Krueger!"
--Peter Bodo, author of THE COURTS OF BABYLON and THE CLAY RAN RED


An out-of-shape 275-pound teenager goes on an athletic journey that ends up at the highest level of tournament tennis nearly 30 years later.
One of the marketing campaigns for tennis has called it a sport for a lifetime. This is a diary of a life as defined by a sport.

Ray Krueger, an editor at the New York Times, spends a year on a quest for the best possible ranking on the 45-and over national tennis circuit while balancing a career in jeopardy and a life spent looking for validation in a sport that may have saved his life. The journey starts as an overweight 17-year-old obsessed with watching and chronicling sports in notebooks as a wannabe sportswriter/editor. Krueger decides to get into the game. His sport: tennis. Separating for the first time from his broken home and his long departed alcoholic father and emotionally damaged mother, Krueger begins a quest that leads him through the lowest levels of recreational tennis to training as a serious athlete and competing in tournaments all over the country. Along the way, the sport gives him structure, a support system and even a wife. The dedication and devotion that he finds in his yearlong (and lifelong) tennis quest also guides him through the toughest year of his professional life. On the court, Krueger deals with fellow obsessives in addition to dilettantes, media masters of the universe, former world ranked players and mental cases, only some of which have been officially diagnosed as such.

The year on the 45-and-over circuit outlines the physical, mental and emotional challenges and rewards inherent in trying to achieve a goal, and shows when the goal may also hide the real reasons for working so hard to achieve it.

2011 Wimbledon: Men's and Women's Finals Novak Djokovic underlined his new status as the world's top tennis player in 2011 by shattering Rafael Nadal's winning streak at Wimbledon to add his own name to the roll of honour at The Championships for the first time.

The 24-year-old Serb, with his country's president watching from the Royal Box, won 6-4, 6-1, 1-6, 6-3 in two hours 28 minutes to continue his domination of the 2011 season - and Nadal in particular - throughout this most amazing season in his career. Five times in succession he has now defeated the Spaniard in finals, but none were as important or will taste as sweet as this.

Tipped to create an upset at the 2011 Championships, few saw Petra Kvitova wining 6-3, 6-4 in one hour 25 minutes. Although Maria Sharapova's play fell well below her best levels, it was in no small part due to the big-hitting torrent directed at her by the 21-year-old whose first, but surely not last, Grand Slam victory this was.
