Hi Alois why does tomkazu harimoto always push long to the opponent's elbow of return of serve when he doesn't flick?

Thanks

Hi Tam,

He has a very good counter attack.  By pushing to the elbow, it makes it an awkward attack for his opponent and allows him a little extra time to make his counterspin.

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.
