Percentage of missed serves to shoot for
Serving
steve king Asked 7 years ago
Coaches,
In tennis, a small number of double faults is acceptable and a player who rarely double faults is probably not being aggressive enough with power or placement. I am wondering if there is any parallel thinking in table tennis? If so, should I push my serve to the point where I miss occasionally, or should the server be more conservative since to miss is loss a point?
Thanks,
Steve

Hi Steve,
I think in a match you should aim for zero faults. It gets too expensive to lose a point with a fault.
In training is where you can push your limits and see what is possible.
