  • I ust play

  • what about northern?

  • i uses south-east style....

  • @pg232323 federer uses eastern grip because he always puts his index knuckle on the third bevel as well as his heel pad....as of 2005 it was proven that he uses a eastern grip and it's kinda obvious since he's an attacking type of player in tennis....only in certain ocasions does he switch to semi western and thats when he wants to put spin on his ball and go for a consistent rally to tire out the oppenent.

  • @pg232323 You're confused. You have Eastern and Western mixed up.

  • @ThaaWhiteShadow Nadal uses Eastern - he puts his hand even further round than a semi western grip , a western grip is flat

  • @kaszap federer uses semi western mate

  • huh ??

    

  • @PlourdPlaythroughs Nadal uses full western

  • i need to watch all these videos i joined tenis because my friend wanted me join with him but im clueless in playing tennis
