Hi Reynel,

You need to spend some time during your training session to practice these strokes.  If you leave it to the match it is more difficult to improve technique.

Make sure you are doing the strokes correctly as we show yo in our lessons.  If you can do this then you will start to get the amount of spin that you need to make the strokes better.

Anticipation

How is it that a player can always seem to get back those extremely fast topspins? Is it their incredible anticipation? The key to good anticipation actually lies in tracking the ball well. When you watch the ball closely your peripheral vision will pick up your opponents movements and with lots of practice those signs will help you anticipate what your opponent is going to do. This happens naturally with lots of experience. So it it your job to ensure that you are tracking the ball really carefully.
