Why Some Countries Become Tennis Powerhouses | Coach's Mailbag w/ Chris Lewit

On Monday Match Analysis, Gill Gross welcomes his childhood coach Chris Lewit to the program to discuss national development strategies that could explain Italy's tennis boom, Spain's 21st century dominance, Czech Republic's WTA empire and more. We'll also cover the 3-4-5 tactical system for shot selection and the NextGen forehand technique. Then, we'll get to your comments, including: how to improve stamina on court, tips for switching surfaces, is depth more important than weight of shot, where is tennis trending, does pro-level consistency come from technique and why aren't there more lobs on tour? 00:00 Intro 02:37 National Development 18:13 3-4-5 Tactical System 23:10 NextGen Forehand 30:56 Improving Stamina 36:30 Transitioning Surfaces 39:20 Balance and Depth 44:15 Style Trends 50:40 Baseline Consistency 54:12 Lobs on Tour IG: https://www.instagram.com/gillgross_/ Our 24/7 Tennis Community on Discord: https://discord.gg/wW3WPqFTFJ Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/Gill_Gross The Draw newsletter, your one-stop-shop for the best tennis content on the internet every week: https://www.thedraw.tennis/subscribe Become a member to support the channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvERpLl9dXH09fuNdbyiLQQ/join An exciting new way to support the channel.
