PLAYING STYLES
-
Big Server
Big servers rely heavily on a powerful serve to dictate play. They aim to hold serve easily and often look for opportunities to attack with their groundstrokes immediately after their serve.
-
Serve Volley
Serve and volleyers rely on a strong serve followed by quickly moving to the net to volley. They aim to finish points quickly at the net, using touch and precision rather than long rallies.
-
All Court Player
All-court players adapt their game to various situations. They can play aggressively from the baseline, come to the net for volleys, and mix up their shots with slices and drop shots, making them versatile and unpredictable.
-
Attacking Baseliner
This style of play is all about powerful groundstrokes. Forehand and backhand from the service line by these players can be devastatingly fast. They play an attacking style of the game, unlike the defenders.
-
Solid Baseliner
Baseliners prefer to stay near the baseline and excel at powerful groundstrokes. They rely on consistency and stamina, often wearing down opponents with relentless shot-making from the back of the court.
-
Counter Puncher
Excel at absorbing and redirecting their opponent’s pace. They focus on consistency, footwork, and anticipation to force errors or create openings rather than relying on outright power.
