Strategy
Why do players like Lin Gaoyuan serve long with side spin without a suprise and players often find it difficult to handle.
Hi Arjun,
I think it is the pressure he bring with the next ball which means you feel like you need to make a good shot off the long serve to stay in the rally.
A chopper likes to get back from the table and get into a nice rhythm. If you keep the defender close to the table in the early part of the rally, it's hard for them to transition back into their chopping position. 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.
