Brillant. My new coach insists on developping such backhand technique and you tips add crucial precision on the whole process. Thanks a lot. You know what you're talking about.
Hey coach. One odd thing I have discovered: if you want to improve how to hit your one-handed backhand, train to hit the two-hander. The two-hander requires so much more body turn and ball focus that it trains you to avoid the bad-form cheats that you can sort of get away with, some of the time, with the one-hander. I'm much more consistent and I have much better form with my one-hander in matches if I spend part of my training time on the two-hander. I'm a good 4.0 but definitely not a 4.5, if that matters.
What a coincidence!!! Tired of my continuos mistakes hitting one-handed backhands, I started to train two-handed, but because I didn’t fell ready to play matches with two, surprise 😮, my one-handed has been more effective
Really good lesson, love how you say why you should do things and point out variations. The first stage of acceleration where the arms pull up was something I hadn't considered, and the difference in follow thru while obvious if you think about it also helpful to clarify.
All the credits to you mate! Well explained, great examples, in-depth instructions. Would recommend this coach to anyone who wants to enhance his/her game. Keep it up! 😉(tennis coach & amateur player)
Okay, this tennis backhand tutorial is great and all, but I tried it and ended up hitting the ball into a different zip code! Time to call NASA, I'm serving for space exploration now! 🚀🎾 😄
Good Evening Grant, I have a question on the backhand can my dominant arm have a little bend and should you keep the racquet close to my body I am only asking because my coach told me to keep the racquet close to your body; lastly can I send a video of my two-handed backhand if so how would I go about sending it?
As good as this is it is way too technical . my coach mentions much simpler terms like having a steeper trajectory on the strings if you want more spin . He also mentions about making sure the arms are straight and having the racket pointing towards the back fence . At a more advanced level he mentions pivoting on the back leg or leaning into the ball for more power . This is all on the backhand .

Brilliant
Fantastic video!
Great video. What about posture and head/eye movement, how important is that ?
i think I catch this. Good job.
Thank you so much ı will try this ❤️
Are you going to do a detailed lesson for backhand on website like you have for forehand ?
Grant! Great video broskie, I am no fashionista, think it may be time to leave that same long sleeve t-shirt that has mold on it away 🤣
@grantvanderhayde are you doing to have a detailed lesson on your website as you do for a forehand?
Okay, this tennis backhand tutorial is great and all, but I tried it and ended up hitting the ball into a different zip code! Time to call NASA, I'm serving for space exploration now! 🚀🎾 😄
Coil the right shoulder back further during take back
great great analysis... would you consider a bent left arm at contact as a mistake in every case?
Not in every case! The straight arm provides a biomechanical advantage, but is not a mandatory prerequisite for world-class performance
GRACIAS
C'est bien expliqué
It is actually like left handed forehand with the help of right hand just to stabilize movement and when impact the ball.
What is up wooooorld class ?!

Almost like a cricket shot
As good as this is it is way too technical . my coach mentions much simpler terms like having a steeper trajectory on the strings if you want more spin .
He also mentions about making sure the arms are straight and having the racket pointing towards the back fence .
At a more advanced level he mentions pivoting on the back leg or leaning into the ball for more power .
This is all on the backhand .
Or you can hit the backhand like Kyrgios and simplify it.
Those shots had nothing on them. I just came from Indian Wells. Not even close. 🤦🏻♂️
too much jabber this really isnt a good tutorial..
Adults hit one handed backhands
What about djokovic?
Its weird how the two players with the most grand slam victories both have 2 handed backhands...
