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.

Varying the spin on your serve makes it harder to return. You can vary the type of spin but possibly even more effective is varying the amount of spin.
