The Hoad Serve
by Jim McLennan
Hoad Serve Elements
The toss is well out in front and Hoad's
arm is cocked back low.
- His elbow remains low as he rotates his forearm and racquet up and then
into the drop position.
- As the racquet reaches the bottom of the drop, he quickly turns into the
hit.
- Finally, he snaps the racquet through the hit, finishing with shoulders
turned well into the court.
- Overall, the Hoad serve is compact, fluid, and very powerful.
