The biggest mistake most club players make on their return of serve is that they try to do too much with
it. Get the ball back in play !
The return of serve is already a difficult shot. It comes at you at different speeds, different angles,
and with different spins than other shots. Don't make things worse by forcing spectacular returns. One winner can't compete with two or three misses. Your opponent should have to
work for their points, not have them handed to them.
So chip it, punch it, slice it. Do whatever you have to do to get the ball in play, and start the
point. Your competition will never miss if you don't give them a chance to. Keep this in mind the next time you're staring down the barrel of a serve and you'll be breaking them in
no time.
