01Out of the glass
The glass returns the angle you give it. Wait for the ball to drop, turn sideways before it rebounds, and come out with your body already pointing where you want to play it.

Before / After
Six shots, six problems of geometry
Before and after, shot by shot. Every path is drawn to scale on the court plan: where it bounces, where it rebounds, where it leaves the court, and where you have to come out from.
01
02Topspin lob down the fence
A high, closed topspin that dies in the corner. Close the face of the racket and follow through upwards: the spin does the rest of the work.
03The “por 3” smash
The smash that ends the point outside the court. Take it high and in front, and look for the deep bounce: if it clears the fence cleanly, nobody is bringing it back.

04Volley
At the net you do not hit, you block. Firm racket, contact point ahead of your front foot, and your weight moving into the ball.

05Bandeja and víbora
The shot that holds the net. The bandeja buys you time; the víbora wins you the point. The difference is the contact height and the wrist.
06Serve
Three places to put it: down the T, into the body, or wide to the glass. All three deep and tight to the line. Bounce it, hit below the waist and move up: if the serve does not let you take the net, it is not doing its job.

About Mario
My technique was not good. I had to build it.
I come from football, not tennis. When I started competing I realised I did not have the technical base the others had, and I had to build it from scratch, shot by shot. That is exactly why I know where people get stuck: I was stuck in the same place.
