Hi guys,

In that video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ByUX0mOVjwg when the score is 3:3 10:7, there are some backhands of Zhang Jike. What is that shot?  Topspin or just a counterhit with a little bit of topspin on it.

Hi Nasko,

That is a counterhit with a bit of topspin.  He comes over the top of the ball to generate teh topspin.

Stop Coming Back to Ready Position! Do This Instead…

Most players are told to always return to the ready position after every stroke but that might be hurting your game. In this video, we reveal a smarter way to recover:

✔ Track the ball immediately after your shot
✔ Move your racket into position for the next shot instead of blindly resetting
✔ Improve your timing, balance, and flow during rallies

Whether you’re a beginner or advanced player, understanding this subtle change can have a big impact on your consistency and speed around the table.
