off player, with regards to his sidespin serves,always slice the ball in the opposite direction in your return so that the spin of the oncoming ball will not stick to your racket(when i say opposite, i assume that you are facing your opponent).you can add underspin to the sidestroke return to add safety to your return shot.this will make looping it back a little bit harder.as for his long underspin shot,you can loop it rightaway if you are very comfortable in looping underspin.if not, i advise you for more underspin push return in his weak side,wait for the right opportunity to attack,this will also force him to attack the ball off balance,making it a low percentage succes shots.i also advise you to master looping underspin balls,this is the key to defeat this kind of opponent. |
