Preparing for an unknown player

Strategy

Hi Alois,

This is still about my try-out, of course I will have a match to a unknown player so I don't know if he is good or not, how to prepare for my situation.

Thanks, Joshhua

Hi Joshhua,

In this situation you need to focus firstly on what you are doing and make sure you are playing well. Then as the match starts you can think about the things that you can do tactically to find ways to win points against that particular opponent.

When you start the match, do a few different serves to see what works. Then do the same with your returns and your placement in the rally.

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.
