Different Stances
Strokes
Romeo Chua Asked 10 years ago
In multi-ball training sessions, I am able to place the ball accurately with my forehand topspin, as well as my backhand topspin, but not both at one training session. I recorded myself and saw that the problem is my forehand and backhand stance. For my forehand stance, my dominant foot is behind my non-dominant foot by about 8 inches. For my backhand stance, my dominant foot is about 2 inches behind my non-dominant foot. Is there a way to be able to use my forehand topspin along with my backhand topspin effectively in a match?

Hi Romeo,
This is well identified by you.
The best thing is to make sure that during your training, you maintain a similar stance for both your forehand and backhand. Use your waist to turn your body into position to help to make the stroke more effective.
