What is the top spin serve?
A topspin serve in tennis is a serve where the player imparts forward spin on the ball, causing it to rotate forward as it travels over the net. This causes the ball to drop quickly and bounce higher when it lands, making it harder for the opponent to return. It is an effective serve for generating power and control.
