The line of play
Strokes
wongpee wang Asked 11 years ago
My question is : What is actual meaning of "the line of play", is it the player must try to face his opponent or face the direction from which the ball come to you; or face the direction to which you intend to return the ball.
Please if possible try to draw a diagram to make it clear. Thanks in advance.

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.
