grip styles

Grip styles refer to how you hold a tennis racket, affecting control, power, and spin. The common styles include the Eastern grip, where your hand is positioned as if shaking hands with the racket; the Western grip, with your hand turned more for topspin; and the Continental grip, like holding a hammer, used for volleys and serves. Some players also use semi-western or semi-east-ern grips for a mix of control and spin. Choosing a grip depends on your playing style and shot preferences, helping you execute shots more effectively.
