Gael Monfils: Athletic backhand (Analysis)

With the SwingVision camera I want to show you how flexible this man is. He has as little grip as a tightrope dancer but still manages to hit the ball in the sweet spot.

If you still need your knee and your ankles, I suggest you better don't try this on a hard court ;-)

@deeyon12 usually injured due to his young Osgood Schlater sydrome that occured when he was young and continued on throughout his life.

Something tells me Gael doesn't think about that stuff as he sliding.

Gael Monfils and Roger Federer, Monfils love to rally too much and that was his downfall, all Monfils need to do is keep the game simple and short and play the ball away from Roger Federer and to keep Roger Federer move around by using tight angle,

feeling that pressure in my legs too, just like when you see someone hitting his nuts somewhere same feeling.

[isjackal]

a slice plus the lifting due to his bodys movement... i wonder how the ball is turning. maybe both effects are canceling
