Adjusting your return position is underrated.

• A bit deeper against big first serves
• A step in against second serves
• Shift sideways towards the server’s favourite target

More: the return is the second-most-important shot.

Do you change position during a match?

Changing your return position mid-match can also unsettle the server. A server who sees you step in on second serves may feel pushed to take more risk. It’s a tactical tool, not just a technical one.
