In this video you will learn how to hit a tweener.
The three key steps are the preparation, the shot and the follow through
From the continental grip shift to an eastern backhand grip just before the shot
When you are at the net and you get lobbed, turn back and run behind the ball
Separate your legs nice and wide so that you can swing your racket between your legs
If you are late getting to the ball, you could lift your non racket leg
The Shot
Lean over the ball before it bounces a second time
Lead with the edge of the frame and pronate your arm
Swing your racket between your legs
The trajectory of the ball should be flat and ideally to one of the sides to surprise the opponent
The follow through
There isn't much of a follow through, but rather a snap of the wrist
You can practice tweeners on your own by dropping the ball ahead of you and hitting between your legs
The tweener is a difficult but an exciting shot
Play safe, the ball is in your court
