Execute chains of defensive lobs during extended rallies, frustrating opponent attacks and creating counterattack opportunities. Lob chains require consistency and patience to be effective.
Execute the first defensive lob when opponent attacks from net, pushing them back to baseline.
Prepare for the opponent's likely overhead response, positioning defensively for another lob opportunity.
If the opponent attacks again, execute a second lob, continuing the chain of defensive recovery.
Vary lob characteristics (height, depth, spin) to prevent pattern predictability in the lob chain.
Execute counter-lobs if the opponent's overheads drift toward sidelines, catching them off-balance.
When the opponent's attack weakens, transition from defensive lob chains to offensive shots, finishing the point.
