Faster Topspin
Strokes
steven lin Asked 14 years ago
Hi, I have gotten to the point where I can hit the ball with a lot of topspin quite fast (2/3 of a slam) on a return shot, but I do not know how to improve its consistency. The consistency of the shot is only at at around 60%. Can you explain in detail how to improve its consistency?

HI Steven,
It is important to keep a consistent stroke when you are doing this. If you have developed a good stroke at a reasonable pace then you need to maintain that same stroke and then just speed the action up.

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.
