Service Return

General

Mars De Los Santos Asked 15 years ago

Coach, I was able to watch matches of Timo Boll and Dmitrij Ovtcharov and I've noticed their unique backhand service return. Is that their version of the flick? Do you recommend that type of return?

Hi JM,

If it works for you, yes go for it. It is a difficult stroke to play, but some players find this quite natural. Give it a go and see what you can do.
