Hi Nikhil,

This is advice that I give many players when going into a tournament. Stick with the serves you know and get them better and so you are completely comfortable with them. You are better off focusing on this than trying a new serve that is untried.

Tactics Against Penhold Players

A common weakness of penhold players is their forehand block especially against a slow spinny topspin. Their backhand may be a weakness if they use the traditional style, or you may wish to explore the crossover point if they are using the reverse penhold backhand.
