The Singles Playbook | Fuzzy Yellow Balls

Hi,

this is Martina Navratilova,

and this is "The Singles Playbook."

I love this because if you really want to get better in singles,

this will tell you how to play to your strength,

how to attack your opponent's weaknesses,

and how to avoid mistakes.

What's up,

Will Hamilton here,

and that was Martina Navratilova.

You know,

Martina is one of the greatest singles players of all time,

and she personally contributed her favorite plays to the singles playbook,

"The Newt."

One of my favorite volleys.

Especially when you're playing against a pusher,

the newt volley,

you know,

the undeveloped frog.

In other words,

keep the ball short and low.

Everybody hates to have to hit a passing shot from that volley.

So remember the newt volley.

But it's not just Martina.

It's also two-time U.S. Open champ and former world number one Patrick Rafter.

He contributed his twist on the serve and volley.

He contributed a

play called "The Lleyton."

This one is awesome.

You know,

I asked Pat,

"Who was the toughest returner you ever faced?"

And Pat said,

"Well,

it was Lleyton Hewitt because he ran a play

called The Lleyton that is just perfect for

neutralizing an aggressive serve and volley player."

Heck,

even the Bryan brothers,

who are the greatest men's doubles team of all time,

they've got a play called "The Preacher" that works great in singles.

And it's not just players,

it's also coaches.

Craig O'Shannessy,

current coach of Novak Djokovic.

Well,

he's an analytics whiz.

He crunches the numbers to find the high

percentage and low percentage plays you can use.

We've worked all of that into the singles playbook.

The 2-1,

for example,

is one of the signature plays from the pro tour because it's so high percentage,

so effective.

So, what I want to do is invite you to pick up a copy of the singles playbook.

If you want to start running plays that allow you to play to your strengths,

attack your opponent's weaknesses,

and avoid making mistakes.

Well,

there's no faster way to do it

than with the singles playbook here.

The singles playbook is organized according to

what kind of player you're playing against.

So, for example,

if you're playing a certain volleyer like me,

this will tell you exactly what to do.

Good luck.

So, if we flip to one of the plays in here,

and again there's 41 plays in this thing,

you can see right there,

but if we flip to

home base,

you can see that this is a play for rallying against an aggressive baseliner.

And you can see there's three diagrams showing you exactly how to hit

and how to move

to run this play.

Now what you'll notice in the top right corner here is a QR code,

basically a fancy name for a barcode.

And what you're gonna do is you're gonna take out your phone,

you're going to open up your phone's camera.

I see the camera is open.

I could take a selfie if I wanted to,

and I'm going to point

the camera at the QR code. And you see when I did that,

see that link that just popped up here,

I'm going to click on it,

it takes me to a webpage with a video

of Home Base.

You can see this video is less than 2 minutes long,

and what that allows you to do

is

look at the diagram and follow along with the video,

get the explanation of what is going on,

and very quickly,

right before a match,

you can get a refresher on exactly

how to run this play. And the coolest part about this whole

process is you don't have to download anything for this to work.

You literally just have to open up your camera,

the software is already built into the camera to read the QR codes.

It doesn't matter if it's an iPhone,

an Android,

a tablet like an iPad,

it'll work out of the box.

You just need to point your camera at the QR code,

it'll instantly take you to the video.

So, every play in the singles playbook is like this.

They all have QR codes in the top right corner taking

you a quick video explanation of what you're looking at.

So, let's pretend we're scanning the QR code on the home base page.

Here's the actual video that comes up.

Rallying against the aggressive baseliner.

So, one of the plays you can use is Home Base,

and this is a great play because it forces the

aggressive baseliner to take all the risk to attack you.

So, to set the stage we've got a

cross-court sword to sword rally,

not the greatest situation to find yourself in against an aggressive baseliner,

and you can see the area of the court

you're giving away is a little bit smaller than normal

because the aggressive baseliners can take that ball down the line,

and it's something you need to be aware of,

right?

So, the way home base works is very simple.

If the ball

crosses the plane of your body and is an outside ground stroke,

you have to send it back cross court.

But if it doesn't cross the plane of your body and it's an inside ground stroke,

then you can change the direction

of the tennis ball.

Now,

you might say to yourself,

well,

in

this exchange here,

I might

want to go down the line,

get the ball away from the aggressive baseliner's sword.

That's real tough to do.

If they're hitting aggressive shots,

it's probably smarter to just keep the rally

going,

even though they're going to burn you down the line sometime

versus taking a high risk shot where you're going to make an error,

or you could leave it sitting,

and then they're going to step in and put that ball away.

So, keep this rally

going,

and then when you get an inside ground stroke,

that's when you can change the direction of the ball,

and this would certainly be a case where you would want to go

at the aggressive baseliners

shield

here.

And this, of course, would be an outside ground stroke.

You would shift over and ideally you would get an inside groundstroke

and you could set up the red zone.

But if the ball comes back and crosses that plane,

then you got to send it back cross-court for

the

rule of home base.

And if you hit a good shot,

then you can slide over a little bit more and then hopefully

it makes it more likely that your next shot would be an inside ground stroke,

an inside sword in this case,

and then you can set up the red zone.

You might have an overall strategy to do stuff during a match,

but you need to really go play by play,

point by point.

Pros run plays,

club players don't,

and this is what you can change.

So, when we first released the singles playbook,

this thing was 397 bucks,

but for the new and improved

2019 edition,

I wanted to do something special.

Instead of paying 397 bucks,

you can get your hands on this thing for just one payment of $67.

And hey,

when you pick up a copy today,

we're gonna throw in three amazing bonuses.

Now,

the first one,

I'm pumped about all of them,

but the first one is really cool because

the playbook is gonna solve the confidence in your shots problem,

but there's also the nerves problem,

right?

It's a close match.

It's late in the third set,

and you get nervous and tight.

So, how do you handle your nerves?

Well,

it turns out there's a technique to the mental game.

There's a technique to dealing with nerves just

like there's a technique to hitting a forehand,

a backhand,

and a serve,

and that's what we're gonna give you inside of stop choking on big points.

So, if you're wondering,

well,

what do these techniques look like,

we can use one of them right now so you can

see if this is cool and something you're interested in.

So, you gotta have your feet on the ground for this to work,

so stand up or if you're sitting with your feet on the ground,

that works too.

Now think of a pink elephant,

right?

Visualize that pink elephant.

Now grind your toes

into the floor and focus

on that sensation.

Now what you'll notice if you do this a couple of times is it is impossible

to

think about that pink elephant.

It's impossible to have any thoughts

if you're focusing on a physical sensation.

So, that is one technique that allows you to wipe the slate clean.

So, if you're thinking about winning,

if you're thinking about losing,

if you're thinking about what your teammates think,

this is how you snap out of that.

And the way you want to use this particular technique

is right before you return serve.

You walk up to the line,

you focus on the sensation on your feet to wipe your mind clean,

and then you focus on the tennis ball right before your opponent tosses.

That allows you to be focused on the ball

as the point starts.

So inside,

stop choking on big points.

We've got Jeff Greenwald,

a sports psychologist,

one of the best recreational players in the world.

He just won the 40s,

I think,

as a 51-year-old USDA 40s national.

The guy's incredibly good.

But he is a sports psychologist,

master in clinical and sports psychology.

He's gonna walk you through all of these techniques.

I think you're gonna find his technique for serving awesome.

How do you serve under pressure,

get that first serve in,

hold serve,

win a breaker.

So, this program is amazing.

It's normally

97 bucks,

but you get it absolutely free when you pick up a

copy of the singles playbook because it's just a perfect compliment,

right?

The singles playbook is that confidence in your shot's problem

and now stop choking on big points is the nerve's problem.

Now the second bonus

is called live arm,

and this is gonna show you how to accelerate your

arm like a Formula One race car when you're serving.

You know,

I'm not a big guy.

I'm 5'8,

I'm a buck 40,

but

my serve's actually pretty good.

I can hit it over 100 miles an hour.

It's got a lot of rotation,

heavy kick serve,

and the reason why is because I've got a ton of racket head speed.

Now,

I wasn't born with that.

I developed it by following

this program.

So, this program was developed by Dr. Mark Kovacs,

and if you don't know Dr. Kovacs,

well,

he is the man.

He's one of the

leading

performance experts when it comes to tennis.

He has the world's leading study on the serve.

He was

the

director of the Gatorade Sports Science Institute.

He was

the director of strength and conditioning at the USTA.

He now has the Kovacs Institute

outside of Atlanta,

Georgia.

Pros flying from all around the world

and Mark measures all of like their stats,

right?

He has them serve off force plates.

He measures their arm speed.

He does all this crazy stuff to help them optimize performance.

And in all of his research,

he's identified

four stretches and ten exercises

that'll allow you to develop a live arm.

I've been through that program.

That's why my serve is pretty good for a little guy

and one of the exercises I can show you right now might find it interesting,

maybe something you've never seen before.

This would be something you do right before a match.

You're gonna take your hand.

I'm lefty,

your serving hand,

put it on your back like this,

your fingers.

And then you're just gonna pull forward,

gently

to stretch and you'll feel the stretch up here.

So, this is one of the exercises to improve your flexibility and then

obviously there's exercises you can do in the gym to improve your explosiveness.

Program is awesome.

When we sold it in the past,

it was $291, but again included for free when

you pick up a copy of the singles playbook.

So, the last bonus is called the windshield wiper forehand made

simple.

It is awesome

and it's critical if you learned the classic forehand.

That's where you finish up over your shoulder.

Classic forehands are great,

but they don't have as much rotation as the windshield wiper forehand.

They don't let you hit as hard because you don't have as much control.

Windshield wiper looks like a windshield

wiper blade moving across the windshield.

You kind of

end

up down here.

Federer hits it,

Nadal hits it.

All the top pros are hitting it.

That's why their forehands are so good.

And when you pair live arm,

which is going to give you a much faster serve,

more spin

with a windshield wiper forehand,

that's gonna really strengthen your sword.

Well,

that is really when you start to play to your strengths and improve your strengths,

be able to attack the weaknesses better,

and then of course you make fewer mistakes because you

got a lot more rotation on the tennis ball.

So, this program is with Feisal Hassan.

He's one of the best coaches in the world,

2011 USPTA Coach of the Year.

I can't even remember how many teams he's taken to sectionals,

districts,

nationals.

I think it's over 70.

Don't

quote me on that,

but it's way up there.

But bottom line,

Feisal is a master of taking club players and club players

who learned kind of more of a traditional old school classic game

and teaching them the modern game and getting them to be able to master it

quickly.

So, if that's something you're interested in,

you should totally pick this program up.
