Tommie. 🤍 I have to take a moment because this video genuinely made me emotional. When Tommie first started working on her dink, the ball was being pushed through the court — weight coming up off the ground, sometimes landing on one leg at contact. Not her fault. Nobody showed her any different. Watch what happens when someone decides to commit. Grounded feet. Full balance. Topspin over her shoulder on command. This is what this community is built for. This is why we show up, do the reps, and trust the process even when it feels slow. Tommie — you are an absolute example of what hard work looks like. I could not be more proud of you. 🎾✨ Drop some love for her in the comments. She has earned every single bit of it. 👇

Hi Ladies, after the coaching presentation wondering what gives you the most value. Should I focus on a progression series something like moving from 3.5-4.0 or should I continue to do one off videos?! What would you rather?

I prefer one off videos. It gives me one thing to work on that day rather than a progression which is harder to sustain. But this is for me, others may disagree or are more organized in their progress.

Hot take: the kitchen line is scaring you more than your opponents are. Watched this pattern all week — player gets a short ball, stays behind the line, reaches for it, pops it up. Point over. The kitchen isn’t hot lava. Step in. Outside leg leads. Balance stays. Posture doesn’t collapse. Ball levels off. If you’re working on your short game, save this one and take it to your next session. Drop a 🎯 below if this is something you’re actively working on — I want to know where everyone’s at with this and let me know in the poll if this tip is helpful or not!
