Change of pace
Deliberately playing slower or faster than the ball before, so the opponents lose their timing.
Hvornår du spiller det
In a long rally where the opponents have found a rhythm. After a fast exchange, when a slow ball is unexpected. Against players who like to counter-punch pace.
Sådan spiller du det
Use the same preparation, then change the speed of the racket. A soft ball after fast ones should also be low. A fast ball after slow ones should be aimed, not just hit hard.
Typiske fejl
Showing the change early with a different backswing. Slowing down so much that the ball sits up.
