Hi Alois,

My topspin always goes down the line, and in the middle but not in the wide side, I can't control it to go to the wide side, please help to do that :)

Hi Leonardo,

Try to hit the ball a little earlier or just change the angle of your wrist slightly.  Turn it inwards.  These couple of things will control the position of your strokes.

Another simple thing you can do is put a target on the table where you want the ball to go.  You will be surprised how you adjust naturally.

When you need to reach that really wide ball the regular shuffle step just won't get you there in time so you need to use the crossover step. This is essentially a running action to get you to the ball as fast as possible.
