What part of your game you feel you need to improve?

i want to improve three things(in this order)

1)returning
2)risk play
3)baseline play

with me i'd say movement and aticipation, especially on hard courts with the us open being the worst i turn like a train on there. after that probably risks.

I need to improve my returns, which I am slowly doing...also, I need to learn how to stick-serve, I've completely reached the limits of button-serving.

I need to improve the damn lot!!! i seem to struggle to close a point without using risk of some kind...which, distressingly would seem to be a problem with how i'm timing the release....sigh.

Am only just starting to use risk...finding v v difficult - feel like i could do with a couple of extra fingers (i currently have the conventional amount) on each hand.

the stats of my latest itst char are:

fh:90, bh:90, serve:90, ret:50, vol:40, pow: 90, sp:70, stam:40

yet i consistenlty hit cross-court backhands waaaaaay harder than any kind of forehand - surely this isn't normal..!!?!?!?

help!!

That would be from the affect of your swing animation

I choose "Baseline"...
The best part of my game is my serve...After that i just get ridiculous...
So...As i loose quite every single match i play, i think i'll just play big events (Grand slam,Masters1900,...)
Enough of getting my bottom kicked!

I think i will go with the baseline play. I think my serves and return are good enough. during baseline play there are a lot of moments that I don't grab opportunities to make a point or take the initiative. I lose maybe 15-20 points during a match just because i miss time a ball, or stand to close to where the ball bounces...and just **** the rally up:)

I'll go with return; if I'm ever going to make a dent on my opponents service games, it starts with this shot. For the most part I can manage my own service games.

Risk play would be next in line...I would like to be more consistent in that department. Then next I think would be defense.

I'm still finding ways to improve my serve but i've ran out of ideas :lol:

i feel like if i could improve my serve---mixing it up wise...coz i can hit the lines really well.... i just get predictable sometimes. and i usually try and end the point too quickly most of the time too...but, i have been patient lately and noticing positive things.....i played murda in SF challenger....there were zero rallies....so, i could not be patient....it was risk return every time and short slice every time that i could not get to...ha ha ha....i wish there were more rallies in that one....i was up 15-40 5-5 3rd set on murdas serve....i choked as usual...that is another thing if i have two break points in the pressure moment it seems like i dont come through like i used to

I have to change. I have to improve my game, cause i just played a match and it felt i was beaten by a better me :oops:

Congrats NITOFLAMENT on your first final :lol:

by **Q. Reese** » Thu, 30 Jul 2009 04:49

Yea. I do not think that players realize that making it into the final books a play on ITST's history book, and you walk away with the finalist plate.

That is a nice think to remember!

Congrats.
