Is it a hindrance if my one handed backhand is so beautiful that opponents can’t look directly at it?

No. Automatic point penalty. 2nd time it happens you lose a game.

It's considered an immediate winner. Proceed directly to the next point.

You apparently possess the little-known "Medusa Backhand." Use it wisely, my friend.

How does your OHBH compare to the god him self, Suresh?

Only if they are still staring when the ball is on their side of the net

No. By walking onto the court your opponent accepts the playing conditions. Just like it's not a hindrance if the reflection off my bald head blinds my opponent.

No, otherwise Wawrinka would've been banned for life

Oakley has special lenses that compensate for the OHBH radiance caused by Don Budge like backhands--or, u can close your eyes momentarily when u see one coming.

My backhand makes Wawrinka look like he’s throwing a frisbee on the quad.

Can you post a video of your backhand?

Unfortunately not. I don’t wish to cause any of you unintentional retinal damage.

My concern is how has this thread not been granted its own subforum yet? Inquiring minds want to know.

I have had a few times that I wish I could call it on myself, as I stand there in the perfect follow-through after crushing a 1HBH DTL....only to watch my opponent hit an even more amazing cross-court winner back.

@Cashman, I think I've seen you hitting your one handed backhand.

I'm very sorry to inform you that what you think is a one handed backhand is actually a two handed one.

Your personal reality distortion field may convince you otherwise. However ....

I heard that you are hitting your FH like Nadal.
I am afraid to imagine how much damage is created from your BH if it is a better shot...

Excuse me... the list right now is as follows...and after my blazing ohbh down the line on guy yesterday, he'd say I was number one. Must have hit him with about 8 up the line alone changing direction. lol It's a beautiful thing when you have a good one. I'll tell ya that. lol I didn't know Suresh had a OHBH. We will add him to the list.
