Episode 64: Gigi Fernandez
Hall of Fame worthy doubles tips
A Quote
“ My mentality was, if I’m not getting passed down the line, I’m not doing my job because I’m not forcing my opponent to try the low percentage shot. So I actually wanted to get passed down the line a few times.”
- Gigi Fernandez
A Video
Gigi demonstrated some really cool positioning concepts on my podcast. She spoke about when to cover the middle and when to cover the line, the proper footwork for poaching, and her thoughts on faking. I made a YouTube video with her comments, and then I demonstrated her drills on court with a few of my players.
Gigi and I also spoke about playing your best tennis in the biggest moments, her favorite doubles positions, and her best advice for the 4.0 player.
