I have been struggling with my second serve and wondering what to do to develop a good second serve.
Second serves go well in practice sessions, but too many double faults in matches (second serve goes long by foot or two). The problems have been consistency with toss location/height, and lack of racket speed.
A few things I'm planning to try -
1 just hit top-spin second serve for couple of months and hit flat serve only if up 40-0
2 use the same routine as the first serve
3 come up with a plan to visualize target and ball trajectory everytime
Anything else to look at in terms of strategy and planning?
