Whenever I try to topspin my index finger always move up. Also, my whole wrist moves up a bit. Do you have any tips for keeping the same grip?

Hi Ivy,
Try putting a small piece of paper under the end of your index finger. This will give you feedback as to whether you are keeping the finger in place. If the paper falls then you have moved your finger.

Anticipation
How is it that a player can always seem to get back those extremely fast topspins? Is it their incredible anticipation? The key to good anticipation actually lies in tracking the ball well. When you watch the ball closely your peripheral vision will pick up your opponents movements and with lots of practice those signs will help you anticipate what your opponent is going to do. This happens naturally with lots of experience. So it it your job to ensure that you are tracking the ball really carefully.
