Backhand flick against backspin
Strokes
Luigi Alcantara Asked 13 years ago
Hi Alois/Jeff,
I was wondering if the backhand flick against backspin would be more of speed than spin or more of spin than speed.
Thanks

Hi Luigi,
If the ball has backspin it is better to put a bit more topspin rather than speed to lift the ball over the net.
