richard gasquet one handed backhand

[LavenderSean]

federers is more elegant, but gasquets is just plain better and looks cool

[itstonymacaroni]

I think Federer's backhand is prettier.

[bassjammerz]

"inside-out forehand? fuck that shit."

[MouzLevicomBenQ]

Wow

Nice Vid quality.

[365to173repubsPWNED]

I have NEVER seen a 102 mph backhand

[KorgathBladefist1]

what you dont see is backhand drive volleys. awesome backhands.

[chew001]

yes .I believe Gasquet. have a backhand of the best. I've ever seen .I

[TheJosko987]

3:53  O M G !!!!

[Flowskate62]

I'm french and i'm ok with all you say ; his backhand his just awesome. ALLEZ RICHARD ON EST TOUT AVEC TOI !

[samurinannie]

i like 1 hand backhand. i love Federer and Gasquet ^^

[023miljan]

I am Serbian, his backhand is the best in the world, i love it!!!

[joshuadaando]

oh you won't see a nicer backhand

[burlone26]

Andy Murray doesn't like the video :(

[KorgathBladefist1]

one handed backhands are awesome! i much prefer them to two handed and i think its a shame that the one handed is dying out. i mean most players have two handed nowadays!

[FwamTom]

102 mph backhand is pretty damn crazy.

[LilitaEsperanza07]

gasquet tiene el mejor backhand, pero le ha servido de poco porque no ha sido capaz de ganar nada importante, en cuando a novak y nadal pues apesar de ser a 2 manos sus backhands son buenos, aunque para ser sincera no me gusta que no se ven elegantes, en cuando a federer pues no tiene ni el mejor backhand ni el mejor forehand, ni el mejor drive, es mas si se fijan no es mejor en nada, pero es mejor en todo porque es el mas equilibrado, porque ninguno de sus elementos es malo, todos son buenos!

[tombfu]

@LilitaEsperanza07 El único revéz que le gana al de Federer es el de Gasquet. Pero dime ¿Cuál derecho es mejor que el de Federer? ¿Cuál servicio tiene mayor PRECISIÓN? Forehand y drive es lo mismo (al igual que derecho). Saludos

[LilitaEsperanza07]

@tombfu tienes razon, nadie lo supera en eso, pero como dije no me sorprende si igual tiene algo que destaque o no, me sorprende como todas sus armas estan perfectamente equilibradas, y a eso sumale su precision y elegancia pues como resultado tienes a un jugador nunca visto antes, por eso me encanta fed, porque es un jugador unico, creativo, magico, simplemente es un deleite verlo jugar, porque aun perdiendo siempre saca esa chispa que ningun otro jugador tiene, con el jugando el tenis es arte!

[robinpeeters14]

When your backhand is better dan your forehand, your forehand is bad..

[MatheusLacet]

Only Gustavo Kuerten`s backhand is better than gasquet`s

[Rosposotto]

5:17 wow!

[jackwills101]

anybody else spending their nights masterbating to Gas's backhand or is it just me!

[akitmano]

no it is like shit, Roger is the best

[XizelSF]

@akitmano Can't tell if trolling or just dumb.

[pauloolem]

@ASTROxSniper1 yeah! that's what strikes me as well. his forehand looks pretty much like his backhand. how weird!

[pauloolem]

@TennisAnnalyst tough to compare 2 handed backhands with one handed ones... by he way to me murray has the best 2 handed backhand. and then djokovic. although murray's backhand is more flat so it might be more efficient on hard and grass courts while djokovic's backhand might cause more damage on the clay...

[RRTurbulence]

@pauloolem I don't know, look at the backhands Djokovic did against Nadal in Madrid this year. Those were the sickest backhands i have ever seen in my life, two handed or one handed.

[pitoloco]

Ese revez vale mas que el culo de Jenifer Lopez!

[AlecF234]

i hope he won... did he?

[pauloolem]

@AlecF234 not really. he ended up exhausted as if he had ran a marathon!

[AlecF234]

@pauloolem i feel like he chokes a lot. he was up 2 sets to love

[pauloolem]

@AlecF234 he sure does. although this match comes just a few days after an epic game against verdasco in Nice which he won. therefore i don't think he's blameable for not having pull this match off. and getting murray in the first round of the french. that's not what i would call a good draw. Murray is quite an athlete

[Shaftsus]

I think he's technically a lot better than Murray, Murray has great power though and a good serve.

[gangstawanksta022]

@TennisAnnalyst you call yourself a tennis analyst with those rankings? how about youzhny, wawrinka, federer, dimitrov...

[NottinghamForest22]

Come on Gasquet beat Murray! Greetings from England :)

[15mitc15]

its such a shame he lost this match

but monday revenge on wimbledon !!!!!!

[delicsasa88]

federer's backhand in 2006. was better............but,gasquet'­s backhand summary is the best

[gabe228]

@delicsasa88 no, federer never had a backhand close to gasquet's...

[delicsasa88]

@gabe228 look the match federer blake or federer nadal in shangai 2006..........for example

[gabe228]

@delicsasa88 not even close in power, i don't think this can be questioned, Federer has a more flexible wrist, able to do more circus shot backhands, but as a driving weapon, no one-handed backhand is superior to Gasquet. Don't let your favoratism for federer cloud your judgement that he is superior in everything, federer's backhand breaks down under pressure, gasquet's doesn't, gasquet's fh breaks down instead.

[xridethelightningx]

really good quality

[Eewarus154]

Wow! Good to see the best one handed backhand played against the best two handed backhand. It would be an interesting match if they play each other again in Wimbledon 2011.

[cammpinno]

Along with Guga the best single handed backhand ever.

[mitroveca]

not the best looking but arguably the most consistent and solid one-handed backhand on tour

[bhallic24]

omg, that backhand is f-ing unreal. Teach us how to do it!

[bassjammerz]

most players prefer an inside out forehand to a backhand.

gasquet prefers an inside out backhand to a forehand.

[skatetennis123]

who won the match, if you can remember

[eclecticist0]

@skatetennis123 murray. i think gasquet's stamina couldn't keep up and he also had some injury issues, which allowed murray to come back and win in 5 sets.

[pauloolem]

@skatetennis123 murray in five!

[skatetennis123]

5:34!

[DpStankHeals]

@opium1510 Oh, so I guess you've won a Grand Slam title and have been the world #1 junior tennis player and world #7 at some point?

[skatetennis123]

@DpStankHeals

gasquet has won a grand slam?

[opium1510]

My backhand is pretty special like Henin. So shut ur face!

[opium1510]

Beautiful backhand but still a loser

[timafi]

@opium1510 still a LOT better than you'll ever do in your life!

[prattle128]

seems like everyone named andy loves to play to gasquet's backhand and get destroyed by it lol (emphasis on a certain andy roddick)

[cdn19940804]

Murray ? Don't play on Gasquet's backhand XD

[dtv2031]

The most beautiful backhand of all time. I can watch it all day.

[APH1991]

@dtv2031, poetic.

[poopseks]

his farkin backhand is better than his forehand, how many pros can you say that about? lol

[5e4n]

@poopseks Safin, Murray, Nalbandian, Djokovic, Connors, Wilander, Wawrinka, Youzhny, Almagro to name just a few!

[TTFAFF]

@5e4n Djoko's backhand better than his forehand? What? His forehand is a mass-destruction weapon!

Well, nowadays everything on his game is mass-destructive! lol

[shido534]

@TTFAFF Based on your statement about his forehand and the fact that you called him "Djoko", I doubt you've watched him play very much. Nole fans know that his backhand, especially down the line, is superior.

[TTFAFF]

@shido534 It doesn't make any sense. I have been watching Djokovic since US Open 2007. And I saw him beating Federer and Tsonga at the Australian Open 2008 and I saw his family with the name "Nole" written in their t-shirts. I know his backhand is freakin' great. But a few years ago it wasn't as good as it is now. But you can't say his forehand isn't huge. He's got the power and the angles, he is a complete player nowadays.

[shido534]

@TTFAFF Almost everything about Djokovic's game is better than it was a few years ago, and of course he possesses a powerful forehand. That doesn't mean his backhand isn't noticeably better.

[TTFAFF]

@shido534 Ok. You've got a point there. Peace!

[pitoloco]

@poopseks justin henin

[kousseye155]

@poopseks andy murray, david nalbandian off the top of my head..

[TennisCoachno1]

@poopseks maybe the guy he is playing in this video andy murray as well as nalbandian, davydenko, fish, simon, warwinka, chela, kohlschreiber and rochus to name a few but you are right they are in the minority

[conservatards]

@poopseks I can only think of two: Gaudio and Nalbandian.

[conservatards]

The backhand at 3:54 is simply astonishing...reverse backhand all the way from the bleachers almost and hits a winner...incredible

[nhat8121]

@poopseks nalbandian, fish, murray, and a bunch more that you wouldn't know anyway.

[Edu2503]

@poopseks Nalbandian, Ljubicic, Santoro. Problem?

[Edu2503]

@poopseks Oh, and Boris Becker as well.

[Blinx482]

@poopseks mardy fish :D well used to

[jtag8907]

@poopseks Well Murray's backhand is better than his forehand...

[worldted]

My favorite backhand of all time.

[Sen1Sky]

@themutantbass who won?????

[Sen1Sky]

@Kiasko looooool after all this Murray still won, I checked the score: Murray won 4-6, 6-7(5), 6-4, 6-2, 6-1

[6rump]

5:21 What an Angle backhand!!!!

[chrisak49]

wow 102 MPH backhand one handed from a good 10 feet behind the baseline...TALENT

[nipal1234]

what a missile! 3:53

[gioutube]

fanatastic!
