"I am speaking from experience. My FH was my weaker side & as a player, u know ur own weaknesses & under pressure bad technique breaks down. But there are ways to get them stronger & more reliable under pressure. Practice makes perfect & the off season must be dedicated to that,” she wrote.

Stubbs is not only a former doubles World No.1, but also a six-time Grand Slam champion, winning four in women's doubles and two in mixed doubles. Serena Williams, who often has fun with Stubbs, replied ironically by saying that they always serve to her forehand.

"We always served to it,” wrote Serena Williams.
