So there is actually SO MUCH to take away from here but I’ll give you 1 KEY TAKEAWAY on how Anna Leigh Waters sets up her winner.
@a.l.waters_a1 hits an unattackable volley to the feet —noticing her opponent is off the kitchen line — forcing them to play a tough ball off the left foot.
HERE IS THE BIG THING: she then decided to take a small — fairly unnoticeable — step to the left rather than the right where most individuals would go in order to follow the ball.
WHY?: it visual shows more space in her opponents eye, basically baiting them to put the ball on her forehand side
Once she recognizes the ball is in an attackable zone for her she hits a speed up cross court winner.
QUESTIONS: Do you also know why she went cross court with this speed up and not to the middle or down the line? If so, tell me in the comments!
