good stuff. i like how she warms up with light half-volleys to get her short stroke going and eyes trained on the ball, then slowly works her way back and puts more pace and spin on the ball. you can hear the sound of the ball off the strings changing as the pace and spin increase.. wicked.

Oh god...

Can she just trip over a ball and widthraw now? She'll probably pull another hand or tummy ache this tournament.

That's the same drill i do with my coach half court hitting to warm up and slowly move back to baseline.

I've always heard it called mini-tennis. That's how I like to warm up too.

Great video man. I love when people post high quality vids instead of using the camera on their phone.

great video.


Oh and i hope when justine does trip, she lands on some hateful poster and it cushions the blow and she'd stand right up as if nothing happened. LOL.

Great video. Awesome warm-up. She's amazing.. truly the best woman's tennis player right now and for a while IMO.

Wow, it took her till 1:26 to actually restart a rally. Wish I was that good...

Well, your hitting partner has to cooperate too ;)

Her backhand is just plain awesome.
