Which tennis balls do you like most?

Should I still serve and volley ?
Well, back in the day they used to do that more often since they didn’t have the technology that we have today with the new racquets. In otherwords, the ball didn’t really fly that fast.
I would suggest serving and volleying at least a couple of service game just to […]
Every player has a different return serve. Some people do the block in which they just let the racquet barely hit the ball and push it back, and some players like to use their return as their weapon by hitting the ball hard back at your opponnet.
What would I recommend is definitely both. You gotta […]

Andy Roddick won the Cincinnati masters last week after beating Murray in the semi-finals and Ferrero in the Finals.
