Tennis Strategy Model: In competitive tennis, traditional baseline strategies—classic groundstroke-focused play—are most beneficial against opponents who understand both baseline and net-rush tactics, and also against those who do not understand either tactic very well. However, net-rush strategies are most beneficial against opponents who understand only baseline tactics. Aggressive strategies, whether baseline or net-rush, generally favor a player who uses them against an opponent with less competitive match experience, whereas defensive strategies, whether baseline or net-rush, tend to reduce an opponent's advantage when used by a player with less competitive match experience.

Select for Aggressive, baseline the scenario in which the information above most strongly suggests that an aggressive, baseline strategy would be most beneficial for you to use, and select for Defensive, net-rush the scenario in which the above information most strongly suggests that a defensive, net-rush strategy would be most beneficial for you to use.
