Joo Se Hyuk's Attack

Gustavo Fernandes Asked 13 years ago

Alois, I have a doubt about how does Joo Se Hyuk attacks with such power some short and low balls when the opponent has made a drop shot off his chop.

Thanks.

Hi Gustavo,

You are not the only one who has doubts about this. He is simply amazing!

The key is to generate enough topspin on the stroke so the ball can get up and over the net and still dip down in time to land on the table. He moves so quickly and gets into position and then plays a great Forehand Topspin Off Backspin. He gets his bat moving really fast and brushes the ball generating plenty of topspin.
