I am currently following online tennis instructions (Florian Meier) serve instructions (which is really great by the way). I am focusing just on the correct basics. He is saying the motion always stays the same. Swinging from in to out. If I do this, balls go down the line (which is the way it should be in the beginning).
I am not 100% sure though what to do when would like to hit to the right or (even more difficult) the left service box. He says the swing path and alignment stays basically the same. Just the racket face turns a bit. I find this difficult to time on a fast swing though.
I was swinging to the left in the past to hit in the left service box which seems to be wrong.
Wouldn't it be more easy to keep the swing the same and align the body position to the left a bit ? Are there different thoughts about that ?
Thanks a lot
