Hi Stanley,

Sure, take a look at the Lessons on the Forehand and Backhand Chops. These will help you to master these strokes.

Take a close look at them and I am sure they will help you to fix this problem.

While that is good advice for a player trying to be defensive I am not sure if Stanley is saying he is lobbing out of necessity and would rather be offensive.  If that was the case I would recommend trying to hit a long (lower) topsin drive and to move in.  Alois, what would you do to move forward and to transition from defense to offense?

Thanks,

Andrew
