@travisdt My pleasure, you're right... it's very satisfying when students have that enlightening moment and get something that takes them up a notch.

All the best,

Tom

Good point, most of today's forehands are open stance. However, Fed and others still hit the forehand with a closed stance at certain times, usually when attacking. I was referring to the closed stance forehand, which takes more effort (energy) to hit than a one-handed backhand. All the best,

Tom

I personally use it, as well as recommend it, in order to take a big swing at the ball. I'll also use eastern and continental grips depending on what shot I need. All the best,

Tom

the term semi-western on the bh is a little confusing, you need to start calling it the eastern bh grip.

Great video! You really do have an edge in articulating all the unseen facets of performing a one handed backhand. Your video has helped me a great deal. Thank you very much, love your work!

@TennisAnnalyst your last comment was a bit cryptic but you are right. He opens up early.

@TennisAnnalyst The one-hander will never go away. Why? Because the one-handed backhand iis the prettiest shot in tennis, and the most pleasurable. If you hit your backhand with two hands you've never experienced that. Try something new, you might like it. By the way the non-hitting hand is doing something.

Great backhand! Helped a lot. Thanks

Good points on the backhand, although on your first statement I might disagree that the forehand is across the body. Most pro's actually swing out, then come across at and just after contact. Something you rarely hear pro's teaching, but I think it is significant. Watch Fed., Soderling, Gonzales on slow motion video. I'm on-board with your backhand coaching though. Thanks for the vid, well done.
