Do the pros ever get off balance like the rest of the tennis playing public? Yes, they sure do. That is one of the main goals they all try to do to each other. The difference you will probably notice is that they are still able to execute a pretty good shot to stay in or get back into the point. If you watch carefully you will see more players make use of backspin or underspin to defend or neutralize when the opponent's have attacked against them. This allows them to change the pace, ball height, direction, vary depth, etc. to take their opponent off of their offensive rhythm. Just like a pitcher having change-up pitches and not only all fast balls, variety is the key to keeping your opponent off balance and forcing them to make errors. If someone likes topspin then give them backspin. If they like high balls, give them low balls. If they like to hit angles, don't give them any. There are ways to move someone rather than just going corner to corner. Next time we will talk about how you can do that. Female player Melanie Oudin and male player Roger Federer are examples of how you can use other ways to move the ball around.
