1) it gives you time to get to the net.
2) it keeps your opponents back.
But guess what? Those are both wrong!
Listen to this episode of the show where Mark Renneson unpacks why a deep return really matters.

That says “drive” all day long. 😀 I have heard you say, Mark, that our opponents have free will and they can do whatever they want. If an opponent becomes uncomfortable receiving my deep serves, then you can bet I’ll keep serving them deep! I may also mix up high deep serves with low fast serves. Dislike one? That’s what they get
