Hi Alois and Jeff
I am struggling to get a more deceptive fast long service when I serve fast and long my opponent anticipates it and plays a powerful forehand topspin can you help.
Thank you regards Arjun

Hi Arjun,
The key is to get your setup and action as similar as possible for the short and the fast serve. This will give your opponent less time to be able to react.
If you are setting up differently for the two serves or even if your backswing is different for the two then your opponent will anticipate the serve early.
