Critique my friend's tennis game!

My friend Kenny is a 3.5 player and wants some good tips to make his game go to the next level. Here he is playing against a 4.0-4.5 player in a local Greenbelt tournament. Please leave any comments that could be of some help for him. Thanks!

Note: He recently changed to a one-handed backhand.

you've got to put a vid with him, making backhands, I only saw 2...keep working

[roadlesstaken]

I should. On that day he sure was favoring his forehands.

Take the racket back sooner. Way sooner.  Especially on the BH side. Watch how late he takes the racket back there. It's just a slap.

As he plays better opponents they're gonna pick that late BH apart.

[roadlesstaken]

I think you're right...good catch! I'll let him know.

[AuroraEmpire]

hes a 3.5?

[roadlesstaken]

He around that level, although he never got an official rating.

Dude, he is not 3.5. I would say 4.0 - 4.5.

Great forehand! His serve toss could be higher. Needs to develop a backhand (two handed recommended since he seems like a baseliner), other than than very solid!

im a really good tennis player i think ur a very good forehander anyway ur heapz good add me

[SniperKingA13]

He needs way better footwork. He has 3.5-4.0 strokes on the forehand, 3.0-3.5 on the back hand and has like 2.0 foot work.

[GentlyRaining]

work A LOT on footwork. He's just stepping aimlessly around the court after he returns a ball.

4.0-4-5

you have to increase your right power.

The left hand is good!!! :)

[gg2000gg2000]

backhand looks strange

[Traw3k]

Change grips, God!

jesus he plays like an asian. stop using so much wrist on your backhand. its not table tennis or badminton.
