Strategy
I want to ask how to counter pips attacks. Can i chop or loop it?
Hi Vannah,
You can topspin it. You have to allow for the ball not having as much topspin as you may be used to. So your stroke will need to be more vertical to lift the ball over the net.
We have a lesson in our Match Strategy lesson on Playing Against Short Pimples which will also help.
