The Harkleroad Backhand - Post Birth

When I read that Ashley was making her comeback to professional tennis at the Miami Nasdaq this Spring, I thought I would feature her in a blog! The last time she played there, she was on an absolute tear, making 4th round of both Miami and Indian Wells.

I always liked watching Ashley play because of her athletic ability and her simple strokes. Her movement is excellent, and is enhanced because of her technique and athleticism. Moving laterally is an important aspect of the game, and at the high levels, you need to move and hit with precision and power. A ball that stays in the middle of the court and that has little power, will not yield winning results.

Look for Ashley’s great balance and rotational core power in this video.
