How To Deal With High Heavy Topspin in Tennis - 5 Ways How To Play Against Topspin Shots

When we analyse on how to deal with certain elements of tennis we think about the footwork, the body work, the racquet work and the intention of a player - what are they trying to do. All these parts of your game are vital in achieving the perfect forehand or backhand and to essentially win more matches.

When dealing with a topspin forehand and topspin backhand that is high and heavy we must first examine the tennis tactics behind your response and then how best to achieve it. In this video we will show you exactly what to do and how to do it.

I like how you guys don’t just talk endlessly but give a demo too the same time unlike most YouTube coaches who just talk and talk and talk standing on the court. 💁🏻‍♂️🙄

[ericliao]

You guys have absolutely the best camerawork I've seen among all the tennis instruction channels. The buttery smooth player tracking, unique perspectives, and slow motion, all make for a super effective training video. Thank you for all your time and effort!

Most in-depth and comprehensive and understandable for this frequently occurred challenge.

[TennisLifeTV]

This is probably the most detailed and informative video on how to deal with high balls. I see Thiem moving back all the time so he can just aggressively swing at the ball by buying himself more time. In contrast, Federer is masterful when it comes to hitting shots on the rise.
Option 5 sounds like the most difficult one 🥲

Liked before watching because I KNOW its going to be great.

It is valuable to see shots hit in slow motion, e.g., Simon hitting balls "on the rise" and Alex hitting one-handed backhands. Videos like this increase my enthusiasm for tennis.

Simon and Alex, a year after I first watched your videos, I am still coming back to rewatch. This video has so much for the developing player. I have only fully worked on 2 1/2 out of 5 of those steps and have more to go. Great content, gentlemen!

[andersriedel]

Damn. This is good teaching. And amazing how elegantly you are able to hit some of these shots.

[frankwang]

I can't wait!This is what I need to improve right now!

[rishabhmehrotra]

This channel has a video for almost every problem in tennis!

[ashleychan]

I love how you guys show us what you meant by the things you said, and the clips you’ve showed are very helpful😊

[priestmanoj]

The intro was world class did you guy edit that? and your Chanel is amazing keep up the good work.

[joakimharlin]

Very good. Especially against low level doubles players and pushers. One other way to handle these moon balls on the forehand is to tilt your body and hit a hard top spin shot at a higher swing plane.
