Hi Coach
Firstly, you're the one who makes my strokes improve. You're my only coach, so great thanks
My question is in this video https://youtu.be/onEkHHWzxW0?t=2m35s (2 mins 21 secs)
After some great topspin shots and the player is too far from the table, Ma Long has played the ball too short
Is it allowed ?
Is it Ma Long point or the another player?
Thanks :)

Hi Elsayed,
That shot is allowed. It is a good tactic.
We have a lesson on this stroke called the Drop Shot off a Lob.
