Instructions
- 1Start at the baseline after serving or returning.
- 2Advance through the transition zone one controlled step at a time as in doubles.
- 3Cover the full width of the court alone, favoring center recovery position.
- 4Only commit fully to the kitchen line once the point allows a clear approach.
What to focus on
Center-court recovery bias since there is no partner to help cover angles.
Common mistake
Camping at the kitchen line too early, exposing the full width behind you.
