Dimitrij Ovtcharov's Tomahawk

Serving

Clement Clement Asked 6 years ago

How can Ovtcharov keep the ball very low while he serve the tomahawk serve in a standing position(bending down just a bit)

Alois Rosario Answered 6 years ago

Hi Clement,

He tends to bend as the ball comes down so that by the time he hits the ball it is reasonably low.

The Kicker Serve

The kicker serve is one of our "must learn" serves. It's fast, fun, and has lots of topspin. It can be dangerous because if it's not fast enough and if you don't surprise your opponent then they may be able to attack it forcefully putting you on the defensive straight away. Used well though, and sparingly, it can be a great weapon. It can win you a point outright and it will stop your opponent from standing over the table waiting for your short serves since they need to be ready for anything.
