I like how you explained that driving with the arm WILL actually produce a lag (as opposed to a manufactured lag that you see sometimes by placing the racquet in the lag position with your muscles). It's very deceiving because if you recorded yourself you'd actually see the racquet lag behind and fool you into thinking you're getting it right. But the true way to achieve the lag as you explained is to have the body drive first.
Great video, thanks for these useful advices
Hey, thanks for another great video. Can you please explain how “pat the dog” racket position increases top spin considering that we open the racket at the contact point anyway? Why opening the racket from the start (WTA style forehand) is worse, even if we drive racket from bottom to the top in both cases? Thanks in advance!
Thank you so much. This really helps!
Another excellent tutorial Vincent 👍👍👍. A full arm extension and distancing it from the body are key. Wrist is a non factor
real tennis technique in this channel, i see why its underrated, you are speaking truth
Very well and clearly explained. Watched lots of coaches on YT, many things become clear to me thanks to you Doctor.
I wish I had seen this video when I started tennis. I have used my wrist to generate topspin and am struggling to change my stroke due to ingrained muscle memory. Thanks for putting this up.
Tennis Doctor is the best! He teaches right way to execute a modern forehand. Great job!!
Can you do a video on a "normal/raying" topspin drive forehand. What is angle the face of the racket should be at contact (0 deg, 10 deg closed?) and what angle/path the racket head moves a foot before and a foot after the ball (10, 20 , 30, 45 degrees up)? What does it feel like. I know I can watch slow motion videos of pros. The angle up is about 20 and the face is usually 5 degrees closed, but what does it feel like?
“Feel like you throw your shoulder out of its socket.” This is interesting advice. I feel like my shoulder is generally too far back when I make contact with the ball, so I am going to try out your advice. Thanks!
Thank you so much for your help. I have been watching your videos over the last 2-3 weeks and you have debunked countless TH-cam myths, which have ruined my forehand over the last year. Trying to use my wrist to create the spin, only to see my shots hitting the net or dropping short. Your explanations are relevant and can be reproduced on court. Keep going - the quality is improving with every video you are making.
You were probably using your fore arm to early which results in closing the racket face , also starting to role your shoulder to early does that
Can you do a video on how to feed a ball? I mean the first ball to start a rally
Yeah the pros make it look cool with the half-swing, I’ve been wanting to learn this too 😂
Use your wrist 😂
What is a "semi-pro"? Like either your professional or not xd
Youre doing a good job thnks
I need you as my coach ...
When you say to set up “at the height of the ball,” what are you trying to line up with the ball?
Your hand? Your racquet head? Your shoulder?
I have a question since it's been only 1 hours that the video was released. I hear a lot of time that you need to have a loose wrist on your forehand, but I feel like I got the opposite problem, My wrist is too loose. Do you think it's a problem or should i keep it that way ? thank you
Loose wrist with a little squeeze on impact for control.
I used to have this problem. You want it to be "loose" in so far as it lays back as far as it wants to. But you want to drive the top of your wrist bone, where your thumb pad meets your wrist, at the ball. Youll feel some firmness in your wrist or thumb pad and that will help.
It is pretty obvious that the arm should be loose. However how to achieve loose arm effect ?
I feel like not enough focus is put on the importance of the racket tip being lower than the hand at impact to create topspin. Your thoughts?
Brilliant thank you. Yourself, Rick Macci, Jeff Salzenstein and a few others are the only ones on TH-cam who teach the forehand correctly. There's one guy named Pieter, (I will leave out his last name) who teaches his students to literally flick their wrist at the ball. He needs to see this video. .
Those who watch TH-cam know who Pieter is 😂😂
@@foxyonthrottle690 Good for them but that's also a problem if the goal is to improve in any way.

And this is even without finishing the stroke just pure out the wrist with the arm on lone mission
Yep, coach that i train with periodically is saying the same as you in this video. He always said that wrist "slap"will only destabilize your shot and make your strokes very inconsistent. I agree that atp players are generating racket head speed by completely loosing their arm instead of slaping with the wrist. Very accurate point in this one. Am wondering why Mouratoglou is always pointing out that wrist is generating huge speed tho
Because it does 😳

And I’ll make another one where we finish the stroke hitting as hard you can out of the wrist and you’ll understand moroutoglou

What percent of power comes from the arm??? I would think the arm has to be used some in the stroke. Not saying arm the ball. I realize the majority of power is coming from torso rotation, leg drive, weight transfer, etc… Would you say 10-20 percent of power comes from the arm? Just curious. I’m new to all this so thought I’d ask.
Think shoulder not arm…
@@tennisdoctoratp Think peck not shoulder. Pull your hand with your peck.
Try pulling your hand forward with your peck. you can get a ton of smooth power and good hand-eye coordination. Then build on that more and more of the chain.
This is the best video
tennis stroke mechanism doesn't come natural to me, I find them complicated and not very intuitive. . . . which makes it difficult for me to improve. 😁
It does not seem bad without the ball. Unfortunately we play with balls
I think the doctor does not know that there’s not one professional player watching his videos but recreational players which are 99,5% of the world and half of what he says those recreational players will never do !! But I’m going to make a video and debunking a lot of the shit he was talking about so that recreational players shouldn’t worry to much about
Just watch videos of Sampras and you’ll see that this guy is right
