Thanks to our publisher, Matt Pressman, I had the chance to connect with Viktoria Belinsky and bring her into the tennisplayer.net community. This is someone who is right in the thick of player development -- working with ambitious, hard-working juniors who seek to compete well in events such as the Orange Bowl and various ITF tournaments. Viktoria's mind is like a razor -- sharp and well-directed. Accordingly, her story on the return of serve has many great insights, ranging from how to organize oneself for the shot to a few simple but highly effective practice routines -- including a couple where your practice partner doesn't even need to be a tennis player. Have a look.
