Asia Muhammad Interview: Where to Aim On Returns, When To Call Off a Poach, & Overhead Technique

In this episode, you'll get insights from current top-50 doubles players. Asia Muhammad has six career WTA tour-level titles, most recently winning the WTA 250 Monterrey Open with her partner Caroline Dolehide. 

In this conversation, we talk about how she got into tennis, when she decided to turn pro, how to communicate better with your doubles partner, and more.

I also ask Asia what makes her overheads so freaking good. They were the best I saw at WTT, male or female.

After that, we talk doubles strategy. Asia provides some intriguing points on serve placement and poaching, where she likes to return, and how to decide when to call off poaches due to poor returns. She also shares why you should always aim at the opponent when returning down the line in doubles.
