Merge with Topspinner[edit]

This article covers topspin as it applies to all sports. As the Topspinner article contains so little information, it should be merged here. Neelix (talk) 03:36, 20 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Overspin[edit]

Many sports use the term overspin instead of topspin. The article leaves this out. Baseball does not use "topspin". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.127.94.7 (talk) 17:51, 21 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Is the bounce higher or lower?[edit]

According to the "tennis" section (picture), it bounces lower. According to "Competitive utility", higher. However it is also mentioned "on most court surfaces". This needs clarification as of why is it bouncing higher/lower and what the dependence is with the surface. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.112.97.53 (talk) 21:48, 11 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This might help explain the difference. http://www.tennisindustrymag.com/articles/2004/04/follow_the_bouncing_ball.html Bcostley (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 06:00, 29 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
