Firstly, I have coached tennis pros like Baker and Goodall, and they both started off hitting a ball in their back yard, then progressed (with some help) onto bigger and better things.
Novak Djokovic entered his first ju-pro tennis tournament as a young boy, and there would have been many days when Novak would have felt the same way as you Samantha, but he kept at it and is now very highly rated in the world.
I recommend watching the Aegon Championships which are currently being broadcasted on BBC 1 and 2 and watch the pro players’ techniques and introduce them into your personal tennis style. This will make you feel more positive about your ability, but don’t expect to instantly be amazing.
TO SUCCEED, YOU NEED TO HAVE ENERGY, DETERMINATION AND AN OPTIMISTIC ATTITUDE as well as the correct equipment and training.
I hope I helped you realise whether or not you want to give up or keep trying to succeed in this demanding but highly rewarding sport.
Yours,

If you are looking for power. Babolat have some very good power rackets. Andy Roddick’s version is pretty good.

Hey, I live in Alaska and would like to know what type of rackets would be better for: power, and control. Since I live in Alaska, there are not many shops or “experts” that I could go to, to get an opinion on some brand name rackets.

I’m hoping that someone would be as so kind to give some good suggestions on what type of rackets I could/should order.
Thanks for your time.

Cool

You definitely need to get some Tennis Shoes, running shoes are designed for forward movement while tennis shoes more for lateral movement!
