WATCH: Billie Jean King explains how to improve your tennis game at home

We are all looking for new ways to be constructive in these times of social distancing. Staying home, without going out, for a period of two weeks or more can become quite difficult. Billie Jean King has what you need if you want to hone your tennis skills from the comfort of your home.

Playing tennis at home

In a sport like tennis, which relies heavily on your skill, rigorous practice is always essential. In these troubled times, we are all forced to stay at home as much as possible.

Not only would going out of the house be madness on your part, but it could also have implications for public health as a whole.

So how the hell do you practice and improve your game?

With Billie Jean King’s Eye Coach training aid of course!

As the former player showed us herself, the Eye Coach is a simple training aid that allows you to train your eyes to follow the ball and improve your form while hitting the ball.

Billie Jean King revolutionized the sport of tennis in her day, forcing the world to recognize women as equal to men. Well at least in the sport of tennis community.

Her fight for gender equality in sports led to many big events paying both genders equally, the first of which was the US Open.

The 12-time Grand Slam champion was one hell of a player in her prime and if she believes the Eye Coach can improve my game, I’m all for it.

We might just have a surge of young talent around the world coming out of the coronavirus situation, much better players. Maybe a few Billie Jean Kings are already in the works.

Now you don’t have to go out and risk your health for a bit of tennis. So stay home, stay safe and train away.
