A good drop shot can win you a lot of points in tennis matches — but how do you actually learn to hit one consistently?
In this video, I’m taking you through the exact progression I use in my tennis lessons.
You'll learn how to:
- Develop the feel for an effective drop shot
- Use crosscourt drop shots to give yourself a better margin for error
- Practice with a partner and progress to realistic feeds
- Recognize the right balls to attack — and when NOT to drop shot
- Use your other shots to create better opportunities for the drop shot
- Continue playing the point when your opponent gets to the ball
I'm working with Kristina on her **backhand drop shot**, but you can apply the same principles to your forehand, too.
The goal isn't just to hit a good drop shot in practice. It's to learn when and how to use it as a weapon in a real match.
💬 **What shot would you like me to cover in a future lesson?** Let me know in the comments!
I'm Meike Babel, former WTA #27, and I help recreational tennis players improve their technique, tactics, and match play.
