Weekly Tip: Focus on Your Serve

Your serve sets the tone for every point. Consistency is key—a smooth, controlled toss leads to a more reliable serve. Don’t forget to follow through to add power and accuracy. A solid serve can immediately give you an advantage in match play. Practice a few extra serves each day, and you’ll see big improvements over time.
