Hi,

The wrist needs remain relaxed. Then think about it like you are going to tap the ball with the back of your hand. Now bring your wrist forward and then release it forward. It is a little like you are throwing a frisbee (flying disc).

Anticipation

How is it that a player can always seem to get back those extremely fast topspins? Is it their incredible anticipation? The key to good anticipation actually lies in tracking the ball well. When you watch the ball closely your peripheral vision will pick up your opponents movements and with lots of practice those signs will help you anticipate what your opponent is going to do. This happens naturally with lots of experience. So it it your job to ensure that you are tracking the ball really carefully.
