How to play a topspin smash

Strategy

Sir, I usually play by chopping and my backhand is a bit weak. So whenever I chop on my backhand, my opponent smashes it off by a topspin which I find hard to counter even by chopping. Is there any other way to counter it?

Gerada v Lu

Once again Alois and Jeff discuss a great match from the PingSkills Classic. This is the first quarter final between the number 1 seed Simon Gerada and Percy Lu. Without giving too much away, just make sure you watch the incredible backhand that Percy Lu hits in the 4th set. It really is the shot of the tournament.
