Hi Kaustubh,

The last few days you should concentrate a lot on your serving and return of serve and 3rd ball.  Also practice your strengths a lot.  This is what is going to win you points in the tournament.

Some players even like to just rest the day before a tournament.

Good luck from the PingSkillers and let us know how you go.

Tactics Against A Defensive Chopper

A chopper likes to get back from the table and get into a nice rhythm. If you keep the defender close to the table in the early part of the rally, it's hard for them to transition back into their chopping position. So keep the ball short on your serve and try and catch them unprepared. Watch the video to find out more great tactics to use against a defensive chopper.
