 Hi,

When I play topspin, racket swings but does not touch the ball.This happens many times. I don't know what causes this and how can prevent it. Please help.

Thanks.

Hi Kaustubh,

Firstly think about watching the ball all the way.

Then think about making your stroke a little less vertical and more forward moving so that you are hitting into the ball.  This way the ball and the bat are travelling along the same path for a longer time and more likely to connect.

It's why all the best players look like they are hitting the ball so hard without much effort.
