Hi David,

This is one of the progressions of learning a stroke.  You are on the right track.  Now you just need to keep practicing it more so that it becomes even more natural and you will be able to use it in a match.  Start by getting yourself to play the stroke in a match where you know the result, so against a weaker or much better player.  Then you can start to use it against closer opponents.

This is the way that we progress our skills.

Forehand Topspin Variations

A great weapon is being able to vary the amount of speed and spin on your forehand topspin stroke. By making your stroke more vertical and brushing the ball finely, you can generate more spin. For more speed you need to swing more horizontally.
