Hi Alois is serving into the elbow a good tactic? I notice a lot of the top players do it.

Hi Tam,

Yes this can be good especially on a fast serve.  Even a slower serve to the middle makes your opponent move and make a decision between their forehand and backhand.

Variation of Speed

Varying the speed is different from varying the length. You can have a fast short serve and a slow short serve. You can also have a fast long serve and a slow long serve.
