Returning high chop

Strokes

Sanat Shetye Asked 13 years ago

whenever i get a high chop should i smash or use top spin as the ball goes down?

Hi Sanat,

It is better to use a little bit of topspin on this ball. It looks like an easy ball but I see a lot of players making mistakes with this one. The backspin will still drag the ball into the net if you don't account for it.
