Topspin contact straight line
Strokes
Il Ill Asked 9 years ago
Master Rosario,
I have a problem with the correct topspin. I talk about more up-spin, not sidespin-loop.
I dont know how to brush the ball in the contact with the wrist - with straight line or I must to close (rounded contact)?
Which is the both is more used by prof. players?
Thank you in advance .

Hi Il,
It is important to develop a straight topspin. If you are getting sidespin on the ball think about turning your wrist back slightly and brushing up right at the back of the ball instead of a little on the side. The turning of the wrist is like opening a gate.
The top players use mainly straight topspin because you can hit the ball faster. If you add sidespin you will have to slow your stroke down to gain consistency.
