"Hi, this is Maria Clark again and I am speaking on behalf of Expert Village.com and I am going to tell you the basic of tennis. I prefer to hold my racket like this. One mistake that people make is that they hit the ball and their racket is face up like this so the ball when it hits the face of the racket it tends to fly up over the fence or hit outside the court. So that is not a good idea. So you make sure that it is closed face like this and for me sometimes I use two hand depending on my opponent and my opponent is really strong, so I use two hand forehand, two hand backhand but you know it is kind of weak opponent so it is like using my forehand but that is good enough for me.
