Sir, in my state grass players dont use it for defense. they use it on their b/h and play normally(fast) with it. its very tough playing with those type of players. what should i do?

Hi Earl,

It can be difficult to play against that style of player.

One thing that is effective is to push the ball deep and fast to them on the backhand and then attack the next ball.

don’t try to play too fast to the backhand side, because they will use your spin and speed against you.

Their backhand may be a weakness if they use the traditional style, or you may wish to explore the crossover point if they are using the reverse penhold backhand.
