Today, we thought we would transfer the concepts of yesterday’s lesson to the tennis courts. Judy repeats topspin (Mr. Top), leading with the top edge and brushing up on the ball. Cos continues using backspin/underspin (Ms. Bottom), leading with the lower edge. Remember that the topspin balls bounces toward the receiver and the backspin/underspin will back up. Watching your opponent’s racquet will give you a hint of what to expect. If they take their racquet back high, expect an underspin. If their racquet approaches below the ball, they are hitting topspin, which will kick up higher. If you can’t practice with a person, try hitting both spins against a wall. Have fun and be safe.
