Tennis instruction: The Yannick - tennis approach shot is a perfect example how players in the past were much better attackers then the players of the 2000s era.

The cross-stitch footwork step allows a perfectly balanced and controlled tennis backhand slice attack.

One must also understand how much daring is involved on this attack by Noah who is practically at the baseline when he launches it.

Also the amount of elastic speed or acceleration generated by Yannick is phenomenal!

06.06.2011 Quote from John Newcombe former World Nr. 1; 'Players today hit the ball as hard as they can and run to the net, then look surprised when the ball comes back to their feet around the service line. Learning the art of net play has to happen between the age of 10 and 15.'

'Most players today can put away a volley at net height or above but hardly any can volley effectively below net height such as Edberg and Rafter could. The problem is not so much in the court speed but the players' lack of ability to play difficult volleys. Subsequently there is a natural reluctance to come to the net.'
