Hi aloiis and Jeff I played a match and every time they did a no spin serve short I always hit it high i tried just letting it go over by just tapping it but it always go high enough for them to attack what should I do?? flick it ,attack ,push I know it's the third ball attack.

Hi Mohammad,

This can be an awkward stroke. Try to make the push more vertical. So as well as trying to just tap it think about the stroke going more down.
