Hi guys my question is how is it possible to perform the topspin against the the backspin chop if the ball is hit short and i am not able to perform the topspin the way shown in the video?

Hi Omar,
This is very difficult. If the ball is short you are better to push the ball back short and wait for the next ball to come long and topspin it.
If the ball is high then it is possible to topspin the ball but not if it is short and low.

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.
