Backhand Footwork

/ }6 y4 J& T* |/ ?- [% iMany players neglect an important part of their backhand footwork -- moving in and out. Instead of making the effort, they reach forward to the ball, or lean back to play a deep one.
, z2 A- ^$ s; f5 s% cSuch footwork neglect leaves players vulnerable to the tactic of changing depths. One classic is to play a short ball followed by a deep ball, catching your opponent leaning over the table. (Often, the deep one doesn't have to be hard at all, just bounced near the end line.) Another good tactic, for points played off the table, is to alternate forceful low spins (to the backhand) with softer, higher spins. By coming up shorter, the latter shot will force the lazy opponent to reach forward and hit up at a spinny ball, often sending it off the table. You can see such errors made all day at any tournament, even among fairly high-rated players.
2 U; h$ E' _3 G4 W: W
2 v- N+ I0 J' I! R* ]The solution to this problem involves simple hard work and paying attention, without shortcuts. After each backhand, you must try to get back to a ready position, and recognize the need to move into position for the next one. Tempting as it is just to stand there and wave your paddle quickly to counter backhands, such a lazy approach will cost you against stronger opponents who play a three-dimensional game by making a continuous effort to be in position.

反手步法

2 y+ d0 A$ S! _很多选手忽略了反手步法一个很关键的部分：退出和进入（相对台面）．不去做这方面的努力，他们向前够球或是后倾去打长球．

这种步法的忽略使得选手对球深浅变化的策略很脆弱．一个经典策略是打一个短球紧接着一个长球，这样会把你的对手打倾斜在台面上．（经常，长的那个球并不需要很大力量，只要落在端线附近就够）．另一个有效策略是对于那些长球的相持，改变那种有质量的低旋转（到反手）用软高的旋转来代替．如果拉得够短的话，后一种球会强迫那些懒惰的选手向前够去发力攻这个球，经常是打出界．赛场上你可以看到这样的错误经常出现，甚至包括高积分．
: j) {# T% M6 |! q
6 P+ @( R5 F4 N) f) Z0 N! p( j- r, ^+ W问题的解决包括单纯而困难的训练和集中注意力，没有捷径．每次反手打完你必须试图回到初始位置，并且注意发现是否需要移位打下一个球．那种只站在那里快速挥拍来用反手打球的诱惑，这样的懒惰的解决方式会使你输给那些通过持续努力还原而打三维球的选手．

Sometimes you encounter an opponent who returns serves short, flips, and opens better than you do.
When this happens, you have a decision to make. Either do something to tighten your short game immediately, or just start serving out deep and returning deep to open the rallies up more freely. Often, the latter strategy is better, especially where an opponent may be hindering your quickness through well-placed returns made using good touch.

In terms of tempo of play and general aggressiveness, most improving players err on the side of going for too much -- e.g. by trying to kill difficult balls, or by failing to fall back to steady, consistent play when warranted. But at high levels of the sport, things happen quickly in points; players open quick and hard, move fast around the court, and generally mop up the slower stuff that passes for lower-level rallies. Thus, there can come a time where a developing player needs to play a quicker, firmer game. From a practical standpoint, this is difficult advice to give, since it is so easily misinterpreted as a license to flail if you don't recognize the right time (and way) to step it up.
5 ^) B, j* x' f- i# n: y; Y( m5 XThe best indicator is match experience against a better player, especially one at least 200 rating points stronger. Typically, they may move faster, loop sooner, counter more quickly, or even push more severely. Generally, you will have less time to get going in a point, and have to strike more severely to score. Such experience can show directly where your own movements and reactions have to accelerate.

4 C- W5 X. X  ?6 _1 yThe way you step up your game is equally important. To execute more quickly and powerfully requires better footwork and form, not harder swings. The high-rated opponent loops more quickly because he moves faster into looping position than you do. He can stroke more rapidly and consistently because he lacks the hitch in his swing (or faulty grip, bad position, etc.) that you have. But he also has a different mindset, expecting to execute these things in situations where you would have doubts. There is no question in his mind that (for example) he is going to run over there and hit that quick counter-loop. And he does.
- e- S- H" y# o8 O
If you decide to step it up, first work hard in practice. Stress yourself through rapid-fire exchanges with your partner, trying to make every single shot without error. Do double-speed footwork drills. Play practice games where you must attack every ball, regardless of your opponent's shot. Try to relax a bit (no gritting of teeth), since taut muscles move more slowly. Don't forget a coach's advice (if available) on your movement and form. Then, in match play, step it up about half as much as you did in practice -- which will give you added quickness, while hopefully keeping any wildness under control.

Your game can move up a level if you can accelerate your play while maintaining good form and consistency.


提高速度

  k- D0 F# n5 M, A' {谈到比赛节奏以及积极方面，大多数正在长球的选手都倾向于做的太过了--譬如试图去杀很难的球，或在必需的情况下无法退后沉着稳定的发挥。但是对于高水平的运动，每分之间事情发展非常迅速；选手发动进攻快狠，移动迅速，而且扫荡那种对低水平没问题的慢球。因此在某种情况下长球的选手需要打一些更快更坚实的球。从训练角度很难给出建议，因为如果你不能识别合适的时间（和方式）去提高速度的话，很容易解释成可以去乱打。
8 `+ {( k! g6 ^/ C; q
9 i$ t7 x; v3 [2 ]5 z最好的指导是去和高水平选手比赛，尤其是那些积分至少高上200分的选手。很典型地，他们移动更快，更早拉球，更快反拉，甚至搓得更狠。一般来说你有更少的时间去进行一分球，而且需要打得更狠来得分。这样的经历能直接得告诉你你在哪个移动和反应方面需要提高速度。
) f- E9 l( R) a/ l0 ~
提高速度的方式同样重要。执行的更快更有力量需要更好的步法和方式，不是更狠的拉手。高积分选手拉球更快是因为他们更快的移动到拉球位置。他可以打得更快更稳定因为他挥拍没有像你一样的被绊住（或者错误抓拍和错误的位置，等等）。而且他的思维也有区别，在某些情况下准备好执行一些动作，而不是像你一样会犹豫。譬如对他来说跑到那里杀那个快速的反拉在他的想法里是没有任何问题的。而且他做到了．

: i( K; Q: ?+ R) U如果你决定提高速度，首先要下苦工训练．在和队友快速回合中紧迫起来，每个球都尽量不要失误．用两倍的速度做单纯步法训练，打一些无论对手怎样回球你都进攻的模拟比赛．试着放松一点（而不是要紧牙关）因为紧蹦的肌肉移动速度慢．别忘了教练对于移动和形式的指使（如果有的话）．然后在比赛中提高大概相当于你训练时提高的一半的速度--这样可以让你加速同时控制住你的疯狂（希望如此）．

Stepping around one's backhand to hit a forehand is a standard and useful tactic. But there's one side to it most players don't realize.
  j" ]1 f6 U9 i7 o" gWhen you step around, you make a tradeoff by giving your opponent more time in exchange for your chance to hit a more powerful shot. This occurs because forehands are hit to the side of the body, whereas backhands are hit in front -- so It takes longer for the ball to get to your forehand. This difference is most apparent in topspin rallies where balls bounce out deep.
. F- ~/ h) K# |( F( I& v
; o! r0 G  M" m& l5 ]8 t# G3 {What's it mean tactically? By stepping around, you also give your opponent the time she needs to step around. Similarly, when you see your opponent start to make this move, you can do the same with the extra time provided. Just knowing this creates new possibilities. For example, you might think twice about stepping around against an opponent whose forehand is stronger than yours, especially if you can hold your own in backhand rallies. Alternatively, an opponent whose first forehand loop is weak can be exploited by encouraging him to step around and open into your own, stronger forehand.

+ H$ `4 h* c5 T# h$ p  P
当你侧身时，你是牺牲给对手更多的时间换来你更有力量的进攻。这是因为正手是在身体一侧击球而反手是在身前--因此球要运行更长的时间到你的正手。这种区别在上旋相持球跳得很深时最明显。

Few players think to practice smashing lobs. But few things can turn a game around faster than hacking a sure winner when your opponent is prostrate on the barrier. And while a high smash looks easy, the unusual trajectory of the ball creates complications you can only experience through trial and error. Smashing practice also has a unique way of revealing flaws in your forehand stroke; it you can't whack a lob comfortably, there's something amiss.

Top tennis pros practice their overhead smashes, for many of the same reasons. You should, too.

Many good pushes (i.e. spinny and low) can be hit with your backhand if you don't try for too much on the shot. Practice this by giving some pushes a quick, low flick over the net, and by adjusting your racket angle up or down to correct errors. Your objective should be consistency and placement, not power, to create what amounts to a glorified flip.
% y3 q! C) T2 _1 uThis simple shot can be very useful in rallies, by letting you open against pushes that might be difficult to loop. It gives you, for example, a way to initiate the attack against an opponent whose short game and opening loop are tough to crack. Done well, it results in a low, flat shot that can be awkward for your opponent to handle -- not that easy just to block, counter, or loop. With good control of this shot's direction, you can also aim at inconvenient places (e.g., your opponent's hip, or wide to the forehand) with openers hit quick off the bounce.
