Re(2): #355 - How do you beat Goikoetxea in Singles?

Well, I have watched him and Irastorza just keep torturing the opponent by having him run his head off to the back corner. Both the players do this. The problem that I see with trying to serve to them is that 99% of the time they will catch it. You can't ace them on the serve because they are so tall. Just seems that Goiko and Irastorza only play their right side and put the ball near the 'pit' over and over again...The only way to beat them is to steal the serve, or catch it closer to the front wall and immediately throw a killshot.
