Smashing Topspin Lob
Strokes
Nishan Kar Asked 11 years ago
My opponent returns a topspin lob which on bouncing in my court hurries on me. How to counter this ? I tried standing a bit back but it does not seem to help . Any solution?

Hi Nishan,
The key is position to make the attack. I think most players get too close to the ball and the table when they are making mistakes. The next thing is to hit the ball at the right height. Try to take it when the ball is at shoulder height or a little higher. Take a look at the lesson on the Forehand Smash.
