Aggressive Swings to Big Targets

Key Points

• Reducing Errors Isn’t Passive:
  Fewer errors = more chances to hit winnersMany players miss trying for low-percentage winners on the wrong shotsTaking aggressive swings to responsible targets is key
• Play Smart, Not Reckless:
  Tennis isn't gambling—don't rely on low-percentage shotsSprinkle in risk strategically when the opportunity arisesPlaying simply and solidly leads to more wins
• Think ‘Optimal,’ Not ‘Aggressive or Conservative’:
  Make the best shot choice for the situationExample: A lob on the run isn’t conservative—it’s the optimal playConsider your playing identity (e.g. serve-and-volley vs. baseline grinder) when choosing neutral-play strategies
