Hi!alois and jeff.can you tell me who has the fastest smash and what is speed of those smash.
Alois Rosario Answered 13 years ago
It has often been quoted that a ball travels at around 100mph or 160kph. However I found this interesting article recently about Ball Speed. The article's claim is that the highest speeds are under 70mph or 110 kph.
There was also a World Fastest Smash competition that was won with a smash of around 112 kph.

Watch this master class to learn the correct way to generate more speed in your strokes.
