Why You Must Respect Lobbers from Billy Previdi on Vimeo.
TOPIC: Most doubles players and teams disrespect players who lob a lot in doubles. This is because they've never been taught how to beat the lobbers and always lose to them. They feel they're superior players and can't deal with losing to people who seem so unskilled.
EFFECT ON GAME: By learning the Hunter and Helper positioning and shot selection in The Previdi System, players have a much better idea of how to beat the lobbers, a better chance to beat them and will gain confidence against them. It's never a good idea to underestimate or disrespect your opponents game, respect the lobbers...but beat them!
