Thumb Grip

Strokes

Superman AVENGERS Asked 5 years ago

Could you please tell me the position of the thumb in forehand & backhand push ,forehand & backhand counter and forehand & backhand topspin.

Hi Sonia,

Don't try to move your thumb around too much with the different strokes. Keep it relaxed on the bottom of the rubber initially.

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.
