Federer and Edberg: serve&volley footwork analysis


ITF Irish coach Rob Cherry has shared through his website a video analysis of Roger Federer's and Stefan Edberg's footwork when they go to the net following their serves.
The video considers two points of Federer's 2015 Brisbane final against Milos Raonic and a point of Stefan Edberg's famous Wimbledon 1990 final against Boris Becker.
The clip highlights the similarities in the use of feet by both players to boost the action and take position towards the net, in perfect timing with the opponent's movements.
