Seemiller grip
Strategy

Hello Jeff and Alois!
My nemesis is a seemiller grip player. Any advice on how to crack this code?

Hi Tim,
I think one of the difficulties of playing with the Seemiller grip is the backhand topspin. They ted to be able to play better against an attacking ball on the backhand as the grip can be good for blocking or countering.
I would suggest more play to the backhand side and more backspin balls there initially in the rally.
