I am 15.
I am a state-ranked player, and I hope to be a national tournament player within the next couple years,
I play using a full-western grip.
No body really uses that grip anymore.
I generate alot of topspin on the ball using this grip.
Many of my coaches and hitting buddies have recommended me changing my grip to a semi-western.
Everyday when I hit, I'll alternate using the semi-western grip, and it is very difficult for me to hit the ball.
It feels so awkward.
And the ball flies over the fence.
Should I change my grip?
pros and cons?
I'm already doing well using my western grip, but I really want to exceed in my tennis game, and play on the WTA tour one day.
Nobody plays with a western grip anymore, and people who play against westerners have an advantage. Westerners(me) have trouble with low balls.
Thankyou everyone for participating.
