Tennis and the ground strokes are about the legs!! Note her knee bend and shoulder turn. Patrick is a good coach. However, he only works with people who have solid technical skills already.
@@theking88fifa although I agree that you could teach the two handed back as non-dominant forehand to some people who are so inclined, how many great backhands were not hit that way? I can name Connors, Evert, Borg, Agassi…
Tennis coaches are so anti one handed backed it’s scary. I worked as a coach and any time I introduced a one hander to a kid the head pro would step in and say no. Cookie cutter tennis these days. No serve and volley. No volley. No one handers. Play at the baseline, hit heavy topspin, and retrieve balls
That's because they don't know how to teach it. Its a very difficult stroke to learn properly for the average person so explaining the technique correctly is hugely important.
I mean I think for a kid its way easier to start playing tennis and pass balls with a two hander, not saying Its what I would personally teach tho. But yeah tennis has become more physical and power based lately and less about hand skills or technique
@@Stratisfied22 completely agree. I think starting kids with a two handed backhand is the right thing to do. But I had kids that were interested in switching to a one hander from two and I personally don’t see anything wrong with that. I just wish there was more individuality and variety in tennis. Miss those days, but I understand it doesn’t appeal to the casual tennis fans.
One handed backhand player and tennis coach here 🙌🏼. Two handed is objectively more effective and easier to learn and master (not gonna get into details unless someone asks me to), but the most important thing when intoducing the backhand to a new player is to let them try both and see which one they're more natural with.
Depends on the player some player have good tennis vision so they prepare early some players are not strong on one hand so it depends more on the player.
well yeah you got more stability in general because you have the streng from both arms to stabilize the racquet when you are redirecting the opponent’s pace
Coach, what’s your thoughts on the pull, push method? What’s your thoughts on the hitting the backhand at waist level? I also seen Rick teaching a two hander with an eastern grip, What’s your thoughts on using an eastern grip on the two handler?
@@MarioGomez-kj5bc It is. I went from a two hander to a one hander...never looked back. Better angles, better reach and more versatility. It's hard to learn for sure. Took me a year to transition from a two hander and to get the mechanics right. But once I did it was a blessing. Never regretted it.
@@nelsonc6173 Im happy to hear that man. We need more one handers on the world, im also a one hander myself. However from a purely competitive point of view the two hander is probably going to be better in most of the cases specially for a woman
@@MarioGomez-kj5bc Nah it is all about learning proper technique and form. I taught myself the 1hbh and I can generate a ton of spin and power with as well. I'm also female.
That's exactly how I started. I first used a 2 hander and switched to a 1 hander. I've gotten a lot of compliments on my 1 handed backhand. I wonder why she doesn't make the switch
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! 🚀🎾 😄
In this case look at her footwork. It’s better with the one hander. Not saying she should switch, but a one handed backhand does help the movement back the the center of the court. Look at how Henin moved. She’s young and will get better movement.
I've been coaching for 30 years and early on I learned how to hit a two handed backhand specifically so I could teach it properly to my students so I agree with you 100%. This guy has a lot of questionable techniques he teaches that people need to be careful with.
@@Ben6164 I'll tell you what, I have more experience than this guy. I know what works and what doesn't for certain skill levels(important) and all these videos of tips to create content are not the best.

@@pedropaivalemos It's even more important for the coaches teaching one handed backhands who have never hit one or at least studied the mechanics enough to properly teach it. For example you want Nadal teaching you a one hander you would probably want Federer. Not to mention 95% of tennis coaches out there have no clue what they're doing anyway.
@@fbifederalbureauoofinvesti6729 I also use a one handed backhand, but I’m going to teach my kids the 2 handed backhand, make life a litter easier for them haha.
@@TTech321 2 hand backhand i can't get my two arms to work together and synchronise, alsways end up with shots in the net or way off the court - really weird - One hand backhand i have more freedom, feel light, more spin. However, it requires to really be well positioned and hard to handle high balls
Because 2 handed is just simply easier to hit and more consistent. It’s easier to control. Why teach a stroke that’s 10x more difficult to master and that doesn’t have the same amount of pros v cons. It literally makes zero sense to learn a one handed backhand

She got the best teacher, he's really really a good teacher.
👍👍
he owns a tennis academy in france and coached serena williams in the late 2010s
And Coco Gauff
Nah he’s ass
Her one handed backhand is perfect!
Yes it is, yet he has her go back hitting 2 handed. Sad.
Wow! Maybe the young lady should switch to a one hander, SWEET ONE HANDER!!
yeah her 1hbh is incredible, especially since she does not really use it too.
I agree. Why isn't he encouraging her to do that.
@@rogergarland3746two hand better for her age and overall
Because a one-hander is still a major liability for most tennis players even if you train hard with it for years.
Tennis and the ground strokes are about the legs!!
Note her knee bend and shoulder turn. Patrick is a good coach. However, he only works with people who have solid technical skills already.
You said it exactly- thats what I teach everyday as I work with Medium level players and also some top juniors - I always start from bottom up!
@@tennisfitapp hi, good for u! Where do you teach.?
I agree.
I never agreed with the traditional philosophy of teaching the two-hander like a lefty forehand.
So true man , that philosophy ruined years of my backhand!
@@theking88fifa although I agree that you could teach the two handed back as non-dominant forehand to some people who are so inclined, how many great backhands were not hit that way? I can name Connors, Evert, Borg, Agassi…
but actually it is almost it. In the forehand you keep your wrist free like that, that was the only tip that Moratoglou gave to her.
This kid is already very good; love her backhand
I really miss one hand backhand in womens tour
Golubic saying hi to u
She is good 👍🏻

I think a shot with a two-handed backhand is more easily controlled by the striker.

well yeah you got more stability in general because you have the streng from both arms to stabilize the racquet when you are redirecting the opponent’s pace
I agree .It takes less effort to produce the two-handed stroke ,but also gives more stability
One handed has more reach, able to hit more variety, better disguise, and not to mention just looks so elegant 😊
@@izhamsham843 Yes good point but it does not matter how elegant a shot looks.
My gosh, the before-and-after transformation is incredible.
This guy takes a talented kid and acts like he just made a major breakthrough in their game.
I didn’t see that at all.
Oh backhand is so fun but im just bad at timing
I like this man
Already so good. 🎉
I always use both
Just stick with the great one hand backhand
Simple Patrick loves two-handed backhand
I had never seen a two handed backhand until jimmy Conners

Her "So-So" Backhand is Better Than My Backhand 😢...
She should stick with the one hander. It actually looks better than her two hander.

Why two handed if one handed is more better and easy
That's exactly how I started. I first used a 2 hander and switched to a 1 hander. I've gotten a lot of compliments on my 1 handed backhand. I wonder why she doesn't make the switch
It's smarter for match play to stick with 2 handed. One handed backhand requires more precision and footwork than 2.
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! 🚀🎾 😄
The one hander looked better on her but the two handed provided a lot more pace.
I think that with practice, her 1hbh could be even more powerful than the 2hbh
1HBH is more powerful but must be more precisely struck than 2 handed.
2 handed is more reliable for long points.
In this case look at her footwork. It’s better with the one hander. Not saying she should switch, but a one handed backhand does help the movement back the the center of the court. Look at how Henin moved. She’s young and will get better movement.
You have to be physically fit to do what Henin did .Its very demanding physically
@@karmaking4633 you have to be physically fit to play tennis period.
I thought she could only hit cross-court😅
🇧🇷
My racquet is not free 😢
Patrick in Nike shoes :) ASICS what happened?
I disagree with Patrick if she switched from a good one handed backhand to a two hander. 😭
He was telling her to get to feel the smoothness of the one hander for her two hander! He wasnt asked her to switch!
The two handed backhand is as horrible as it gets.
You cant coach a two handed backhand unless u also have a two hander and same applies to coaching a one handed backhand.

Why don’t use a one handed backhand?
Most pro players use 2 handed backhands. It is just better, less weakness. I don't think there are any top women player who use a 1 handed backhand.
@@TTech321 I prefer the one handed back hand, I think that you have to choose the one you are more comfortable with.
