Hi Guys

Watching your Match Commentaries, I did not see the tomahawk serve used.  Is this unusual?   How many top players use it?

Regards

Steve

Hi Steve,

The Tomahawk serve is not used very much at all at the top level.  It is used by some of the Japanese players especially and by Henzell from Australia.

Ovtcharov as well. In fact William got the inspiration to adopt tomahawk from him.
