    The thing people should get out of watching these vids is not arm and hand movement of each player, or even unit turn, but something much more simple and common to all: 1. loading on back leg and frankly (for right handers) right butt while maintaining wide enough base; 2. using stomach core area to unleash the backside load by semi swiveling; and then 3. using chest muscles to pull semi upwards to further unleash load transferred to stomach core and further transfer this load to the swinging forehand shoulder and biceps.
    Everything else about the forehand (“unit turn”, to “pat the dog” or not, “racket held high” or not, etc., etc) frankly is either individualistic stylism, incidental to the physics of striking the ball, or a secondary epiphenomenon to the first three key steps to ball striking.
    See for yourself: look at video once again but pay attention to: backside load, stomach core, then chest muscle.
    Once you get this, then you too will not only hit with more power but with more elegance too, because now you are making sure your body doesn’t get in the way of striking the ball but also moves in a way to correctly transfer load / power through the kinetic chain.
    Also: two things to NOT get out of these vids is (1) unit turn and (2) trying to decide which forehand swing style to emulate. With respect to “unit turn”, the so called unit turn is a secondary affect of having executed back side load and prepared stomach core. If you instead focus on unit turn independent of backside load and core, you will experience what I call power leakage. So…do not worry about “unit turn”… this will happen anyways. As for swing paths …. you will naturally develop your own swing path that is an intimate outgrowth of your own physics, if you stick to the 1, 2, 3 keys to ball striking. You can NOT simply import someone else’s swing path via emulation. Also, too much focus on the arm and swing path independent of 1, 2, and 3 risks experiencing yet another power leakage.
    As the great tennis technician Mark Kovacs, in talking about the importance of maintaining the kinetic chain, says, “power flows through the arm and is not created by the arm.”
    In short, when striking a forehand, think of hitting the ball as if you are hitting the ball with your core and especially chest muscle, not your arm.

      Na it’s textbook forehand to me.
      Does he load on the right leg? Yes
      Does he utilize shoulder muscle rather than elbow and wrist ? Yes
      Does he use conventional grip ? Yes probably semi western.
      His finish and bent elbow are personal preference . It doesn’t affect performance much . Probably it looks weird because of his heigt, long hand, and finish around his neck.

      @@coryCuc you shouldn't be so offensive.
      The takeback and finish are both important elements of the stroke.
      But it's not like if Meddy is doing those wrong.
      His takeback is very high. That's not wrong at all. And it isn't surprising since he's such a skinny guy, even if he's a professional athlete. So it's obvious that he must have been even skinnier as a kid/teen which explains why he needed to have a higher takeback in order to compensate his lack of strength.
      He also has a really unusual finish, which is very high aswell.
      I don't know any other pro who finishes that high (when playing with full intensity, I know that some players catch their racket high above their shoulder when they play really slow in practice sessions).
      But tbh the height of the finish isn't as important as many people think. Topspin is created, when the racket is moving from low to high before contact. Finishing high over the shoulder, as many coaches still teach, may help beginners to have that low to high swingpath, but players such as Monfild, Kyrgios and Sock are an great example that the height of the finish doesn't really matter as long the racket travels upwards into contact.
      And what are the fundamentals I was talking about?
      Medvedev is using a semi-western grip, like 70% of the pros do.
      The first thing that happens after realising where the ball is going is a slight shoulder turn, where his non hitting hand stays at the throat of the racket.
      Then he sets up his feet.
      Next he will take back the racket completely and than the racket will drop and accelerate towards the contact point.
      At contact his right shoulder is slightly in front of his left.
      ...
      the only things that are unorthodox are THE HEIGHT of his takeback and finish!!!! and both don't really matter, as long the timing and swingpath are correct.

    It always catch my eyes how unstable Rublev’s racquet face is after contact. That doesn’t mean it's bad since he have obviously one of the most lethal forehand out there. Just curious to know what’s the difference(racquet spec, tightness of the grip at the contact, point of the contact on the racquet face, and etc.) and how it translates to his super forehand.

      Not at all. His has two unorthodox stylistic elements: his takeback and finish.
      Apart from that he's using a Semi-Western (as 70% of the pros) and hits with a bent arm (as 95% of the pros).
      He starts the stroke with slightly turning his shoulders and hits with his right shoulder slightly in front of the left at the moment of contact, as all professionals do.

    In all these analysis, we should see how natural it's the drive hit and how effective. Technically Dimitrov has an Orthodox technique but we shouldn't have expect that Daniil changes his way to hit if in his case is natural (healthy) and in the most surfaces is clearly superior, perhaps except clay court, where he absolutely should try to hit with more top spin. We have to teach a healthy technique and every player will move their way to hit to a natural and comfortable position.

      In my humble opinion his way of hitting is so massively agressive loading all of his body on the ball that it neccessarily must require 120% 😊 of a perfect synced kinetic chain with the ball all the time.
      And CA looks like started to lose it somehow. The confidence it that shot.

Now with slight modification of grip and racket head angle, everybody hits the forehand the same way, forehands got bigger than in the BIG 3 era. Federer Fear Forehand lost the edge, his movement lost the edge years before. No chance of a GS any more for him, I guess.
