I play topspin on his every ball but he blocks because he is a good defender so what I can do now.
Hi Ali,
Try to mix up the speed and spin on your attacks. You can then also think about changing the placement. This will make it more difficult for them to adjust to your attacks.
As part of our Premium membership we also have a lesson on Playing A Blocker that will help.
When playing penhold players it is important to remember to first analyse your opponent as you would if they used any grip. What are their strengths and weaknesses? A common weakness of penhold players is their forehand block especially against a slow spinny topspin. Their backhand may be a weakness if they use the traditional style, or you may wish to explore the crossover point if they are using the reverse penhold backhand.
