My friend and I play 4.5 level singles, weve had a history of closely contested sets, I believe he's won one more set than I have when we compete, so its been very close.
He plays an aggressive style, his best shot is his serve and his forehand is very good too, he hits it hard and flat usually, he also slices the ball really well off of both sides and typically plays these shots when I hit slices to him, he's ok at the net but its not his strength. He hits a two handed backhand but typically prefers his one-handed slice.
My style is an all court style, I love defending but I also attack very well and can get on offense very quickly, I also love playing at the net, and trying to dictate with my lefty topspin forehand(definitely my best shot). I like to slice my backhand, but I hit a very hard and flat one-hander as well, when I want to be consistent I use my slice backhand.
Im curious how you all think I should approach him going forward as I want to gain an edge over him in competition.
