In singles, there are three main styles or patterns of play. They are:

1. The fast attacking style
2. The deceptive stroke play
3. The defensive cum straightforward style

Nearly all top players play a combination of two patterns of play with one style dominating.

1. The fast attacking style

Here most of the shots played are smashes, fast drop shots and net shots, attacking lobs, more low services than high services, quick low pushes/flicks to the backcourt from the net, and fast running on the court.
