Hello,

Say your opponent blocked your backhand smash toward your backhand. Ball will come back with similar speed, say the flight of the ball will hit your chest after the drop. How do you play this ball?

Sincerely - Rez

Hi Rez,

I'd recommend playing a backhand topspin. Give it a try and let me know how it works out.
