Subject field(s)
  • Racquet Sports
OBS

Related term: serve out, keep the ball breaking wide.

CONT

... Practice serving at three quarter's speed, not flat out. When you can serve either wide, straight at the body or down the center, against right or left-handed players with consistency, you will be good enough to win most of your service games.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Sports de raquette
OBS

Phraséologie connexe : faire une balle sortante.

CONT

[...] pratiquer les services aux trois quarts de la vitesse possible. Quand on peut assez régulièrement servir soit large, soit droit sur l'adversaire ou soit le long du centre, contre des joueurs gauchers ou droitiers, on peut espérer à bon droit remporter la plupart des parties dont le service nous revient.

Spanish

Campo(s) temático(s)
  • Deportes de raqueta
CONT

[...] practique el servicio a 3/4 de velocidad y nunca al máximo. Cuando sea capaz de sacar abierto, al cuerpo o al centro de la pista y tanto contra oponentes diestros como zurdos, estará en condiciones de conservar la mayoría de sus servicios.
