Tip of the Month
| There are a lot of things we can learn from watching the professionals on TV. Here are a few suggestions for you to use in your own club games. |
Watch the pro's feet. Every pro you will see on television starts moving before the ball is served and keeps their feet moving until the point is over.
Notice their visual concentration. The visual concentration of the pro is evident and intense. They start concentrating on the ball as soon as it is out of the can and don't "disconnect" until it is back in the can.
Look at the positioning and anticipation. The pros take and educated guess as to where their opponent's shot is going. Anticipating something is all pros do. Yes, even the pros occasionally get caught zigging when they should have been zagging, but trying to anticipate more effectively will make you a better player. | |
