Bought this on the basis of past experience with KTG titles to learn some useful tips as I was doing a beginners tennis course and had never had any sort of formal training.
I picked up a few pointers, but the book skimmd over so much and seems to concentrate on showing photos of recent tennis pros making shots rather than show you, say in picture sequences, how to approach a shot.
No real coverage of any tactics, no coverage of how to hold the racquet to make top-spin or slice backhands, etc...
Disappointing overall. Glad that I knew the rules beforehand also, because if I had to use this book to understand them I would be in a real mess!
