So far my biggest problem here are offensive shots. Maybe thats because of switch from clay. I'll try to put more risk, even it will cost UE.

Also, percent of efficient lobs are here much lower than on clay. Is it feature of grass or i do it wrongly? On clay, i was able to lob opponents after his dropshot in 50%, now only 20% of lob shots are in court.
