Receiving
Hi Pingskills.
The other day I had difficulties returning a lefty serve.The serve was just float but it was in the middle of the table, I couldn't flick because it was too long but every time I tried to topspin I kept putting it off the end of the table. I know it sounds easy close the racket but the amount of times the ball went off the table was so frustrating.
Any tips
Hi Cameron,
You could try to brush the ball more to generate more topspin and make it dip onto the table.
After the ball has left the server's bat, they can no longer affect the spin that is on the ball. Any movements after the contact are referred to as fake movements and are meant to confuse you as the receiver. You need to focus on the contact to read the spin.
