Hi

Ovtcharov has a spinny backhand serve how do I get as much as spin as he does

Hi Tri,

We do have a tutorial on the Ovtcharov serve.

The main thing is that he uses his waist turn and wrist to generate the speed of action and therefore the spin.

It is an awkward action and not one that I recommend players to copy. It obviously works well for him though.

Variation of Spin

Varying the spin on your serve makes it harder to return. You can vary the type of spin but possibly even more effective is varying the amount of spin.
