How to do the Dimitrij Ovtcharov backand serve?
Alois Rosario Answered 13 years ago
Hi Andrew,
This is a weird serve indeed. Looks strange when you first see it. If you break it down though it is just a backhand serve with a very strange start and finish.
He starts really low in a crouched position then makes a normal backhand serve and then finishes with his right foot right back in a backhand ready position.
We have a video response for our Premium members on this topic showing how to do the serve. Ovtcharov serve.
