sketch: tennis backhand
January 31, 2013
This is a figure drawing I did during the Australian Open, studying the body position of the one-handed backhand.
Tennis pros like Richard Gasquet (French) and Stanislas Warwrinka (Swiss) both have amazing and powerful one-handed backhands. It requires more muscle strength and may not be as accurate, but it allows extra reach and ‘snap’ as opposed to the two-handed.
