A lift is often the correct defensive shot in singles, but panic lifts become predictable very quickly. If every pressured shot becomes a high straight lift, stronger opponents start leaning

Predictable defence is such a real problem. Even one decent block or flatter lift now and then makes attackers think twice.

For singles I think the key is not forcing variation from a bad position. The best time to add variation is when you still have enough balance to recover after it.
