Strategy
Good news. I finished my second tournament and improved to 1-2. Last time i was 0-2. I still play at the 1400 level though. Hopefully, our next club tournament i hope to make it to the bracket with 2 wins.
Anyways, for my question. Do you have any match advice regarding looking for an opponents weakness. Are there anything tests or you guys do to spot weaknesses before playing a match? E.g. Forehand drills, Chopping, etc? There a quick way to see where one has a weak side?

Hi Chris,
Well done on your tournament improvement.
To find other players’ weaknesses try to observe a previous match of theirs if you have that opportunity.
If not, then in the warm up try to get the feel of their weaker side by hitting a few topspins to each side.
Then when the match starts you will get the real information. Play to a few different positions and also experiment with your serves during the first game especially. Serve to both sides but also with different spins and see what they look comfortable with.

The key tactic against an attacking looper is to stop them playing their favourite shot, the loop. Alois tells you the best tactics to swing things in your favour when playing this type of player.
