Question

im a leftie and i like hitting the ball with my right..but i dnt kno whats te right way to do it?

i also dont know how i should hold it...

Answer 1

You should hit the ball with the arm that you throw with because that will help your serve alot. Hold it like you were going use it like a hammer

Answer 2

hold the ball with your left hand if you are not ampedextrious

Answer 3

Maria Sharapova is a leftie but she plays right handed.  Its what you are most comfortable with.  Being a leftie player can have advantages.... they are relatively rare compared to right handed players, and usually your oponent won't compensate and modify his/her game.

Answer 4

im two handed. Basically i can play left handed or right but my right feels more natural. Go with the flow, your a righty when it comes to tennis. Use what grip feels comfortable to you when u hit the ball but don't hold your racquet right at the top.

Answer 5

Playing right handed is easier when trying to make a backhand shot. Play with whichever hand feels most comfortable, or whichever hand you are able to make the most decent shots out of.

To begin, hold your racquet out in front of you and "shake hands" with it. This is called the semi-western forehand grip, and should be the grip that you use to hit every forehand shot.
