Transcript

Today, I am hitting with a college player for two hours, then one hour of fitness. I want to drill my forehand a lot today. It isn't normal for me to ever hit it this bad, so I want to get it back as soon as possible. My forehand is my biggest weapon, so I need to work on it as much as I can to bring it back. This might be a frustrating practice if I don't get it back immediately, so I must trust the process and keep a good attitude. My fitness in the evening will also be difficult. I will have already played for two hours, so I might be tired. I will encourage myself and push through.
