Book a private tennis coach in McLean

The 80/20 rule reminds tennis players that consistency in basics wins more points than flashy shots.

• Serve consistency: a consistent serve reduces double faults and gives you an immediate advantage.
• Return reliability: getting the ball back in play on returns keeps you in every point.
• Smart footwork: smart court positioning turns defense into offense.
• Shot selection: knowing when to attack and when to stay patient separates improving players from beginners.

Working with a tutor lets you focus on the fundamentals that matter most for your level.
