How to play a backhand topspin against topspin when the ball is pretty low (lower then the ball level)? Should i have opened or closed of my bat? Should I have fast follow through and does my stroke need to be more vertical or horizontal?

Hi Dario,

You need to have a more vertical stroke if the ball is lower.  You can brush the ball very fast to generate lots of topspin to get it up and down quickly.

Take a look at the lesson on the Backhand Topspin to Topspin.

Forehand Topspin Variations

A great weapon is being able to vary the amount of speed and spin on your forehand topspin stroke. By making your stroke more vertical and brushing the ball finely, you can generate more spin. For more speed you need to swing more horizontally.
