Ball hitting my finger
Strokes
samuel benjamin Asked 13 years ago
I am a relative beginner. When I play, including rallying and serving, the ball hits my index finger a lot and I lose the point. Any suggestions? Thank you.

Hi Samuel,
This can be annoying. It may be that you can watch the ball more closely. Also check that your finger is not creeping up the rubber during the rally. It should be down really low but still on the rubber.

Anticipation
How is it that a player can always seem to get back those extremely fast topspins? Is it their incredible anticipation? The key to good anticipation actually lies in tracking the ball well. When you watch the ball closely your peripheral vision will pick up your opponents movements and with lots of practice those signs will help you anticipate what your opponent is going to do. This happens naturally with lots of experience. So it it your job to ensure that you are tracking the ball really carefully.
