The following conclusion is drawn from the data analyzed synthetically from the international tennis tournament videotapes or personal viewing records. Although there are still quite a difference among professional tennis players’ technical patterns, they can still be classified based on the observation of those approach net style (whole court style included) and base line style players: On the one hand, the approach net style players often serve the ball with full wind-mill-type, pinpoint stance, front foot landing first, and 4-6 steps approaching net style to service line as a skill pattern set.They usually prefer one-hand and close-stance in backhand groundstroke. On the other hand, base-line style players often serve the ball with half-swing motion, platform stance, front foot landing first, and 3-steps back to service line as a skill pattern set. For two-handed backhand lady players, they prefer close-stance while men take close- and open-stance in turns. This study suggests that a coach be equipped with skill pattern assembling concepts when a player-training program is concerned. In the meantime, he/she should cultivate integrated and specialized programs in his/her mind. As to future research, this study suggests that it put the samples with common characteristics into detailed classification to test the coherence between theory and practice. Key words: tennis singles game, skill pattern.
