Straight por tres
A por tres aimed down the line, so the ball bounces up and leaves the court over the side wall on that side.
Quando giocarlo
On a short lob on your side of the court. When the opponents are deep.
Come giocarlo
Hit flat and hard, angled towards the side wall on your side. Bounce it near the service line. Recover to the net in case it does not go out.
Errori comuni
Hitting it too close to the net, so it does not get the height. Missing the side and hitting it straight into the back glass.
