Strategy
Hi Ji-Soo,
This is an important question. In doubles you need to work with what your partner needs. In this case I would use your forehand a lot more and not use the long pimples because if your partner is not comfortable with the ball that comes back from it, it is difficult to change that in a hurry.
If you can play the ball short with the LP it may be more useful so that he isn't defending a topspin stroke.
You may need to get around and use your footwork and forehand a bit more!
Are short pimples throwing you off your game? Fear not! In this comprehensive guide, we share essential tips and techniques for tackling the unique challenges posed by opponents with short pimples. Learn why staying cool under pressure is key, how to adapt your tactics to counter their style, and why playing more against short pimples is your ticket to success. Whether you're a seasoned player or just starting out, this video has everything you need to conquer the short pimples challenge and elevate your game to new heights.

Thanks for the insight Alois. Something that didn't occur to me during the tournament unfortunateloy.
I don't think I have the stamina to run around all my backhands, but next time I will twiddle and hit my midcourt backhand loops (like you taught me!).
