How To Deal With slice shots in tennis.
Tennis tactics and tennis strategy by Top Tennis Training's Simon and Alex. In this video we will teach you how to handle low balls in tennis and how to defeat players who use the slice a lot in matches.
Low slice shots are some of the hardest types of balls to handle in tennis, however there are a few ways to overcome the low ball.
1. Hit the low ball with heavy topspin and overcome the slice on the ball with your own topspin which will allow you to hit aggressive but maintain the consistency. If you simply tap the ball back, the slice on the incoming ball will make the ball move on your strings which will result in your shot being erratic and you losing control of the shot.
But by brushing up the back of the ball aggressively, you will be able to overcome the slice with your own topspin.
2. Slice the ball back. As the ball is low most of the time when you receive that slice shot, it makes sense to slice the ball back to keep yourself in the rally in a neutral position.
After you hit that low ball, you will have a few options, depending on the position you hit that shot from you will have to decide whether you move in towards the net, typically you would do that if the ball is shorter, or if you will hit that ball and return to the baseline, normally on deeper slices.
