Long serve

D K Asked 10 years ago

Hi Alois and Jeff

I was playing at the tournament today and I am curious...is there any way how to prevent my opponent to attack a long serve?

Hi DK,

If you serve it to different positions and have a lot of backspin and keep the ball really low, it will make it more difficult.  However by serving long you are opening up the possibility of them attacking you straight away.
