I can do a slow topspin or a fast ball with no spin but I cant seem to combine both without it getting inside the net.
Do i need to close the angle more? my swing need to be more forward?

Strokes

Hi David,
If the ball is going into the net a lot then try to swing with a slightly higher finish and also brush the ball to generate more topspin.
By using a very similar stroke to your normal topspin and then increasing the speed of your swing you will generate more speed.

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.
