Alex Eala has one of the most exciting games on tour right now, so we broke down her serve technique to see what could take it to the next level. Ashley Neaves (The Tennis Mentor) joined by former World No. 4 and 149mph serve world record holder Greg Rusedski to analyse her footwork, shoulder tilt, and ball toss.
We're not saying anything against her coaching team, who are doing an incredible job — these are just the technical details we think could add a bit more pop to her serve.
In this video, we cover:
🎾 Why her pinpoint serve footwork might be costing her balance
🎾 Platform stance vs. pinpoint stance — which suits her better
🎾 The shoulder tilt drill that unlocks more racquet head speed
🎾 A simple throwing exercise to fix shoulder-over-shoulder rotation
🎾 Why everything in a serve starts from the ground up
Whether you're a coach, a competitive player, or just love breaking down pro technique, this one's packed with actionable serve tips you can use on your own game.
