How to play a topspin smash

Strategy

Adithya Krishnan Asked 8 years ago

Sir, I usually play by chopping and my backhand is a bit weak. So whenever I chop on my backhand, my opponent smashes it off by a topspin which I find hard to counter even by chopping. Is there any other way to counter it?

So keep the ball short on your serve and try and catch them unprepared. Watch the video to find out more great tactics to use against a defensive chopper.
