Ever noticed how your topspin works in practice but disappears in matches?
breaks down why this happens โ and how to train it properly.
Most players train topspin against blocks.
But in real matches, the first attacking ball is usually against backspin.
That first ball requires a lifting action.
The next ball requires a driving action.
This drill trains that transition:
Backspin to the middle โ followed by two random counter balls.
Train the sequence, not just the stroke.
