Is there a serve that stands out to you for being an undefeatable serve?

Hi Olly,

There is no such thing as an undefeatable serve.  Only a serve that your opponent will find difficult at that time.  The key is to understand what you opponent is not coping with and try to utilise that serve at that time.

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.
