Game strategies
Serv & Volley: Serv and Volley is part of the game strategy on fast surfaces (grass, carpet). The serving player tries to reach the net immediately after his serve to gain points early on by playing with pressure. Difficulties in serv- and volley play are the overcoming of the playing field, where the attacking player often has to play a half-flight ball (drop-kick) or deep volley at the height of the service line.
Typical Serv- and Volley players were Boris Becker, Pete Sampras, John McEnroe and others. Chip & Charge Here the return player tries to get to the net directly after the return game. This is done by a “chipped” shot (hacked/slice) and a subsequent charge. This form is mostly used for second serves and counts more as a moment of surprise. Baseline game The most common form of strategy in tennis is the game from the baseline.Here, by playing from the baseline with pressure, the player tries to place the ball in such a way that the opposing player can no longer reach the ball or is forced to make a mistake.
