My buddy collin currently ranked about #1000 ATP, uses two one handed forehands, currently 22, we started played tennis at the same time (both late), when he was 14 and I was 16 and we met at a L5 junior tournament in MD. He exploded one season when he went to train in florida one summer when he was 16 and I was 18 and I could never catch him since. I also went to college while he trained at UMCP with the intention of going pro. The unique thing about him is that he hits with two one handed forehands but he is NOT ambidextrous. He could never hit a good backhand so one day when we were training (he was 15), he decided to try hitting one handed lefty forehands and he sucked at first but clearly he's got it down now.
David played his freshman year at UVA then decided to try to go pro. He was able to accumulate 3 atp points that year but determined it wasn't an ideal career for him so he finished off his college education at UMCP. In the last 2 years he hasn't played a single competitive match but occasionally teaches lessons to 3.5-4.5 level players and crushed me in a couple matches.
I apologize for the shaky camera I don't own a tripod unfortunately.
Matchplay starts around 27 minutes, lighting gets smoother as the video transitions to night, and shakiness stabilizes a bit towards the end, enjoy!
I remembered to ask about racquets/strings since I know u guys like that stuff
