Errors and Winners Part II

 Readers will remember the post from yesterday and described a ratio of about 4 errors to every put away.  Those data were found in a 4.0 men's doubles game.

I watched a women's pro doubles match.  The first game ended at 11-1, and what was surprising is that there were almost no outright winners hit.  There were 15 errors for every put away.

So although the pros get back almost everything they can get a paddle on, the big loss of points was net balls and balls gone long.

Keep the ball in play my friends!
