im good at baseline but i cant return the shots becuase there to far away

how am i suppose to win?

Answer 1

good ? this person is using the old "drop lob" technique. very annoying. my guess is that your playing too far back and your opponent is noticing that. try playing on the baseline, this will allow you to take the balls on the rise and give him less time to react which means it will be harder for him to drop shot you. also mix it up, move in on his 2nd serve and go for a winner, also throw in a serve and volley. you have to show your opponent different styles of play, good luck.

Answer 2

counter his short with a short. then kinda fall to the service line if u want. just in case he tries to lob. then u have a better chance of gettin the ball. but if he hits a short again, run up and lob him. lol. this is the first thing that popped into my head.

i usually hit a short ball and power shot the ball at the person, making it almost impossible for him to hit it.

Answer 3

maybe try nadal's style.. even his a bit far from the baseline he could get dropshots... watch his matches... and learn from it.... or try to learn also with other players!
