Hi Coach,

I have one question. In advanced level which one is better fast drive shot or fast topspin shot.

Thanks in advance

Hi Trilochan,

In general the topspin is better because it has a better margin for error.  The topspin will give you better clearance over the net.

You will see at the higher levels, most players will topspin rather than smash, unless the ball is very high.
