I emailed you a couple of days ago about a new tennis video package by coach Kyril which I thought was very interesting. There have been some technical glitches with the videos and coach Kyril is working on those so that you shouldn't have any problems watching the videos once they are launched.

I'll keep you in the loop!

1. What's new?

a) I've analyzed in detail the Federer - Nadal final from the Australian Open 2009 final and I want to show you how you can analyze your matches too, so that you get real objective data based on which you know what to work on.

The modified Aggressive Margin system gives you lots of information, especially once you use it for a few times.

It's not difficult to understand; I taught a tennis mom to use it after watching 2 games of the match of her daughter. After the match, she said: "Oh, now I can see everything! Too many UE Fr(s)! " ;)

You'll see what that means by learning How To Analyze a Tennis Match.

b) Three players need you advice:

- Josh has problems with high balls to his backhand,

- Anshul needs help with his backhand in general,

- Jason wants to know how to return with his backhand in doubles.

So if you've overcome similar challenges in the past with your backhand, please share your ideas and help fellow tennis players get better!

The Roger Federer - Rafael Nadal was a very interesting match and there was great tennis in the first four sets. Fed lost his focus in the fifth and Nadal just turned into a wall and that was it.

I've analyzed the match in more detail and the post has already been getting very interesting comments. I'd love to hear your thoughts on the match and on this type of analysis.
