hi alois,
i am a good topspinner and learning sidespin these days but,,,,I got a problem that everytime when i try to do a topspin my hand automatically puts a sidespin to it without my control. What can i do to get rid of it and i wanna do them seperatly.

HI Manvir,
You need to focus on this as much as you can when hitting the ball.
Recently I found that when hitting against a return board Iwas able to straighten my topspin really quickly because if the feedback I was getting from the return board.
Perhaps you could even hit the ball against a wall and watch the spin that somes back to you and make sure it is coming straight back rather than curving.

Anticipation
How is it that a player can always seem to get back those extremely fast topspins? Is it their incredible anticipation? The key to good anticipation actually lies in tracking the ball well. When you watch the ball closely your peripheral vision will pick up your opponents movements and with lots of practice those signs will help you anticipate what your opponent is going to do. This happens naturally with lots of experience. So it it your job to ensure that you are tracking the ball really carefully.
