Does it drive you crazy to see your doubles opponents strategizing between points? It drives me crazy. Even if I’m 99% sure that they’re talking about where to go for lunch after the match, I’m not 100% sure so I can’t help but wonder. Are they changing tactics? Have they spotted some weakness? Is one player telling the other to go down the line because I’ve let one too many of those shots go by?If my opponents start talking to each other, I can think of all kinds of things they MIGHT be talking about. It doesn’t matter whether I’m right or not – just thinking about it is enough to unnerve me. And if I’m thinking about them, I’m probably not thinking about my partner and what we should be doing to win the next point or the game or the match.So how do you deal with these chatty, strategizing opponents? The answer is – you don’t. Because they’re only doing what’s right. When playing doubles, YOU should be a chatty, strategizing opponent. You should be communicating with your partner after virtually every point.
