Favourite Shot!!!

My favourite is the forehand topspin probably because it is one that I feel confident with in a game and it can win me points.

I will throw it open to our readers to tell us their favourites.

My favourite shot is the forehand topspin against topspin. I love this stroke because although it is a little risky, if you can play it well it puts all of the pressure back on your opponent. It is a great feeling to win a point by counter topspinning the ball.

My favourite shot is the slow, lifted shot with heavy sidespin that opponents try to block and/or smash and end up completely missing. I either do this with an outside-in-stroke with an open racquet face off the backhand (stroke looks a bit like a sidespin backhand flick) or a forehand shot close to the ground (such as after a net tip).
