Attack first

Strategy

Hi,

How can I start attaking my opponent first? He serves then he topspins the ball wherever I hit. But if I hit in the corner, he hits next to the net. Please give me an idea of attacking first.

Hi Merric,

The best way to stop him is by putting pressure on the first couple of balls in the rally.  That is the serve and return of serve.  Work on your serves to get them with more spin and lower and closer to the net.

With your return focus on topspinning any of his serves that only bounce once on your side of the table.

Gerada v Lu

Once again Alois and Jeff discuss a great match from the PingSkills Classic. This is the first quarter final between the number 1 seed Simon Gerada and Percy Lu. Without giving too much away, just make sure you watch the incredible backhand that Percy Lu hits in the 4th set. It really is the shot of the tournament.
