Hi Andreas,

He is putting a lot of topspin on the serve. This is like the punch serve where he is coming over the top of the ball on contact to get the topspin.  He has good deception with it because straight after he contacts the ball he turns his racket like he has done a backspin serve.

If we get a chance we will try to do a video about this serve.

Yes Siddhartha,

You certainly can hit a topspin stroke against this type of serve. As long as you counter the topspin he is putting on the serve, that would be a very effective return.
