Nice video, the best video I ever see... So detail... Thanks
Your comment on keeping the wrist firm and in a flexed position is critical. I used to play with much more looseness in my wrist and as you described would experience very weak balls unless my timing was perfect. Subsequently, I developed severe tennis elbow and was off the court for 18 months. From this experience and researching tennis elbow, I learned that amateurs have a much higher incidence of tennis elbow than professional players and a study revealed the primary difference was the position of the wrist at contact. Amateurs tend to hit one handed backhands with the wrist in an extended position (ie loose wrist) versus pros have their wrist in a flexed position at impact. With extension (ie loose wrist) the tendons are close to max length, they are weak when at max length, and the racquet deflection adds further stretch and subsequent injury/tearing to the tissue. Having the wrist in a flexed position at impact has the muscle tendon unit in a contracted and shortened position which is a much stronger for the muscle-tendon unit and there is less deflection and injury to the tissue at impact. Anyone suffering from tennis elbow needs to look at their wrist mechanics if they are hitting a one handed backhand! Your advice is spot on. Well done.
Great point, small correction to your terminology though. The position this video recommends is the extended position, the L shape cocked position. Flexion of the wrist is when you stretch the top part of your wrist.
This is kind of what do. I call it the Thiem style backhand. If you were to stick your arm out in front of your body. Then turn your wrist upward so that you're looking at the back of your hand. Then you take your other hand and slap down on top of the knuckles you'll notice that you're arm, wrist and hand will not budge no matter how hard you slap down on them. I call this the "power position" and keep this position throughout the entire swing. As I drop the racket and begin to let go with the non-hitting hand, I'll actually often pull the racket backward a little bit with the non-hitting hand right before letting go. This creates a huge sling slot effect toward the ball as long as you keep the wrist and arm in the power position the entire time. Because the power position of the hitting arm/wrist will try to resist being pulled backward and shoot forward with huge force when you finally let go. It's like if you were to take a plastic rod and bend it and then let go...the plastic rod will violently snap back into place. I like this better than bending the arm on the takeback and then trying to straighten it out as I go to hit the ball.
Your tip of not just dropping the racquet but actually bending down as you drop made a big difference when I tried it out the other day. More power and more consistency because I felt more stable.
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! 🚀🎾 😄
Great video! Your "keeping the wrist fixed" is probably the most under-appreciated part of the OHBH, slice, and volleys. It may be the quickest fix to many of rec players' problems.
I might put as "keeping the wrist 'laid back'" or keeping the wrist up
These talks are really top notch. I was doing everything right on my one-hander except this idea of keeping the wrist strong and racket head up. I was told by several coaches to “let racket head drop” - to me that meant letting wrist go loose. My ball was inconsistent and my confidence very poor. The change in my shot was amazing once I started to keep wrist strong - my ball now does what it should.
I had the same problem but noticed Rogers wrist has to be loose otherwise he wouldn't get lag on his backhand.Thiem on the otherhand most definitely keeps the wrist firm and the cricket gear above the wrist and it clearly does him no harm.I get the sense that there's more than one way to skin a cat.
I don’t see looseness in his wrist - even in warm-up.

great content! Keep it up :)👏
Thanks. Yesterday I watched your forehand unit turn video and asked for you to do the same for one handed backhand. Today you posted exactly what I asked for. It just does not get any better than this. 🎾🎾🎾
Lesson - not over complicated but informative. Well done!
Really good instruction coach! Thank you
Pause at the finish, don’t open your body too early. You can open up your body eventually for recovery and back to your neutral position facing front. During the feeding phase, hit and pause at the finishing position.
Like your style...Subbed !
Not always the technique you should use.
When ball is at or above chest height , dropping the wrist is required. Pushing occurs at the early stage of skill development. It progresses to a swing
Great approach, Vincent. Thanks a lot. Only problem of this video is that your legs are not in the frame. I would redo this great video for this very reason if I could:). Anyway, my hat is off to your amazing coach work.
Great vids, one question: do you always turn your chest to the sideline regardless playing down the line or cross? I mean if you want to play a cross ball from your left side of the field to the right opposite side you still kept your chest parallel to the sideline?
Very interesting. Thank you for this video. One question: Do I twist the hips into the shot while my upper body stays faced sideways throughout the shot? Maybe you have described this in your video, just making sure, because I am not a native English speaker. Greetings from Germany.
awesome snap
What about breaking the plane on the backswing so the racquet is parallel to the baseline before starting the forward swing? Is that something you are conscious of or does that just happen naturally with the shoulder turn?
How do we reach you for a video consultation ?

Pro, u didn't show the grip?
How much price difference between modern and old school tennis course??
I only teach modern tennis there is one course and you can buy it with this link: tennis-doctor.thinkific.com/courses/TennisDoctor
@@Tennisdoctorofficial how much for this course? Would be beneficial?
Vic Braden said air the armpits. Thought of anyother way, it's ike an umpire signalling SAFE at second base
I drop the wrist 90% of time, need to muscle memory not dropping it lol
So the backhand you need to keep wrist firm and not drop racquet but on the forehand, wrist must be loose and drop the racquet?
have to supinate the forearm just look at slow mo of say Thiem or Fed
This coach is playing without wrist rotation , he gets topspin by hitting upwards trough the ball(lifting),he never can play a fast flat shot with topspin.This is not how it is played the last 4 or 5 decade's 😢
