Much the same as Arsalan Rezai's. Walter Bartoli on one side of the net with a basket of balls, throws them to Marion in quick succession for her to whack all of them as hard and as deep as she possibly can.
I only witnessed one of their practice sessions, so perhaps people who have seen more can add to this.
They mentioned something about her walking about with tennis balls under her sneakers so she'd learn to stay on her toes. Getting on her knees and tossing a fishing rod to help with her serve.
1. She the way she serve is weird because she has a fishing pole and she whips it so she can get a big serve.
2. She's on the treamill going fast then she has to jump off into a split step and do that then jumps back on the treamill and she does that repeatedly.
3. He tapes tennis ball on she shoes so she can stay on her toes so she now walks on her toes.
its not really a training method but she changes her little serving routine every few months so she can stay focused. Wow, Walter Bartoli makes Richard and Oracene look like qualified coaches
she herself though said she's not the one to train a lot. maybe an hour a day. she said that on french television! well, maybe she meant "during wimbledon".
at montreal last year before her match with shahar peer i witnessed her playing with some type of balls on her shoes to stay on her toes but i dont think they were as big as tennis balls. her dad just kept throwing her easy put aways and shed crush them
