Recommended Strategies, I'm not very good at this Table Tennis stuff Options

I'm currently renting this from Gamerang...

I played through the tutorial without much of a problem and doing a tournament I was able to come close to shutting out the first two opponents and then the 3rd guy in the tournament completely dominated me (the Swedish guy I can't remember his name). I was playing as Chinese guy and the best I could do was 2 points behind. I did about 10 rematches and just couldn't score on him for the life of me.

I think it's safe to assume I throughly suck at this game.

So I'm open to any pointers you could provide, strategies for playing against certain characters, or general techniques.

I've tried a few different things like hitting far left two or three times and then hitting it far right with right spin. or hitting it far and hard a few time and then knocking it short.... maybe these techniques are too simple but I just can't seem to progress in this game.

Almost every serve I end up in 30+ hit rallies before I either fall short of hitting the ball or my opponent knocks it out. Either way I'm not actually scoring

I love this game to death! I got it with my 360 for Christmas, and I have enjoyed every single bit of it. I played the amateur tournament with Liu Ping and DOMINATED everyone, including Jesper (who I owned in BOTH 2 of 3 games with me having 11 and him having NOTHING, the guy SUCKS). If any of you wanna play it online (since no one does), I'll try to add you guys and maybe we can play a couple matches.
