why does your partner just sit on the baseline until a short ball forces him in? I thought at 4.5, most players know the importance of getting to the net.
@anujbahl ahhhhh--he is very effective from the baseline--there's a misconception that in order to be great in doubles--you play the net--it's not one size fits all--you have to use your weapons effectively and know your limitations. serve and volley is GREAT but not totally 100% necessary all the time. watch how he does it. at 4.5--coming to net is not mandatory. 5.0 it's mandatory

@hi10spro I am with anujbahl on this one. 3.5 you can get away with baseline stuff but above that level the net wins.
