Hi coach,

I want to ask you about what the better strategy to beat a Chinese and top players is it to play the heavy slow topspin at the third ball (but i noticed that all Chinese and the top players they counter the topspin and i lost the point) or to let them begin with the slow topspin and i counter it or smashed (but I have many errors when I counter topspin with a heavy topspin in it and when I smashed I have also errors but i have a great continuity with ball after the third and the fourth ball but what can i do with the third ball and the fourth?

Thanks coach

Hi Sami,

I think it is a matter of where you are putting the topspin and the speed you are playing.  Also think about variation in all of those things.  If you vary these things it will make it even more difficult for them.

Tactics Against a Good Short Pusher

Use a long push or a flick to open up the game against someone who is beating you at the short game. It might not be your favourite way to play but if you are losing the short game you need to mix things up. In the long run you certainly need to improve your own short game.
