Hi alois,

I always lose to my dad nowdays because he always serve short or very long. When its short, its easy for the flick. But when its long, i often cant use the counterhit in time and i just lob it

Pls help me with this problem

Hi Mat,

Try being ready for the long serve and whenever it comes long make a topspin.  If it comes short it is easier to move in and make a push or flick.

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.
