Can a good topspin return overcome most spin serves

At the club level, below 1400, can a good topspin return overcome most spin serves?

Hi Phillip,
I think in most cases this is right. If the serve is long, and if you have good topspin technique you should be able to overcome any serve.

Fake Movements
After the ball has left the server's bat, they can no longer affect the spin that is on the ball. Any movements after the contact are referred to as fake movements and are meant to confuse you as the receiver. You need to focus on the contact to read the spin.

Thanks for your quick response. You guys are great! I am converting from a long pips backhand to a topspin short pips backhand with good topspin.
Merry Christmas,
