Master return of serve: lob vs. low, reading the serve & tactics.

🏆 Your #1 Takeaway

What are the key considerations when deciding between a lob return and a low return in Padel?

Consider the serve's speed, height, and spin, as well as the server's position on the court. Adjust your return strategy based on these factors to either slow down the point with a low return or push the server back with a lob, aiming to gain a tactical advantage.
