Yeah, I was watching my footage and tried to figure out why I was going to the left. So toss to the right then more. That makes sense, Coach V. I just wanted to be able to do topspin slice and flat off the same toss. I didn't do topspin here.

I used to toss more to the right though. I would hit harder that way, but never could hit topspin off the same toss, only slice. Vic Braden taught me to go at two o'clock off a lower toss and not jump. He used to say, "Can't shoot a cannon out of canoe." lol 

Joe, I hate bees. I'm allergic to them. I swell up real bad. Real bad. :)

Tim only fell to the left because he saw a bee coming, and he wanted to get out of the way before he got stung.  Watch this on HD and you'll see what I mean.  It wouldn't look good to get stung on film, now would it?

This looks very nice Tim.  I agree wtih CoachV about falling to the left, but all in all - nice serve!

Looking forward to returning it in IW!   ---- down the line!  HA!

Tim stop falling to the left to hit. what if the return goes down the line? to fix this dont toss out in front and toss the ball to the right side of your body......sorry just my 2 cents.

I flirted with placing the racquet face upwards before after seeing Edberg, but now it makes much more sense after seeing how Raonic does it. I don't think I've served this hard with so little effort. :)
