2nd Serve Ace
Hall of Fame
Wow! ST had exactly 2 bh winners in 5 sets against an 18 yr old and 20+ UF on the bh side.
Obviously, his insistence on hitting weak, fluttery "topspin" backhands in every situation is not helping him win important points. The whole point of a 1hbh is the variety in shot selection, but dang ST, just keeps serving up batting practice many times to his opponent.
A good hard slice would add some complication to your opponent and disrupt his timing, but ST just never does that.
