3. Approaching the Service Line
After you've hit your approach shot, don't run into the net with your
hands and racquet head down by your sides. Approaching this way cuts down
on your preparation time for that first volley, as you must bring your racquet
up into volley position. Come to the net with your racquet head
up, ready to hit your first volley - particularly if it comes back
to you more quickly than you might like. You should also approach with your
head up, looking to see how your opponent is reacting to your approach shot
and looking to see when he/she is setting up so you can time your split-step
properly.
