I cant really practise it right now, but I am visualising something with the one-handed backhand stroke.
I have been using a 2-hander these past few months, having been a 1-hand hitter for years in my previous tennis life. I have a slightly un-healing rotator cuff, it kinda affects my 1-hand backhand swing but more in a *doesn't feel very powerful* way rather than a painful way.
My thought is, would gripping the racquet higher up the handle have a beneficial effect in making this stroke feel more *solid*...... I wonder. In theory I would be shortening the racquet drag and swing path..... there is probably a physics answer to that, I cant think of it.
What do the technique aficionados out there think?
If this is ridiculous, just say so ha!
