Opponent hitting the ball early

Strategy

Hi guys,

What strategy would you consider against someone who hits the ball much before it reaches the top of the bounce?

I played this person and each stroke he made took me off balance and out of rhythm. I felt that I was constantly reacting and chasing after the ball.

Thanks,

Gabi

Hi Gabi,

If they are hitting the ball early they are also taking more risks.  The best thing is to vary the spin and speed and see if you can force them into a few errors.
