Womens Backhand Drive
Strokes
Frank Lucas Asked 6 years ago
In womens matches i see what looks to be a flat hit, but it's low and they generate a lot of power off a very compact swing.
What type of shot is this and is it useful to learn?

Hi Frank,
They are playing a fast close to the table topspin with a short swing. They tend to hit the ball a little flatter than the men in general but still generating spin by brushing the ball very fast.
It can be a useful shot for anyone when you are playing closer to the table.
