Serve Secrets:

The Dirty Diaper Drill

Jeff Salzenstein

This is the second of a new 3 part series from Jeff Salzenstein on Serve Secrets. Jeff should know something about serving since he was clocked in excess of 136mph on the ATP tour. But more than that, Jeff has always been a student of the game and particularly the serve. He is one of the bright new voices in tennis coaching and one of the very few who comes from such a high level playing background.

This second article details a powerful drill to help develop a kick serve with more topsoin.

We're excited to have back Jeff as a Tennisplayer contributor!
