Semi-Pro
Hi everyone.okay so just thought id get some guidance n tips here.Im a good 3.5 and play rec tennis, my backhand is basically non existent though. I just slice and use one hand, never learned proper mechanics of two hander.Obviously being a girl I lack power guys have for one handed backhand (i know i know henin and few other female one handers but still) but I played racquetball a lot and its so much easier using one hand that I instinctively dont get too close to ball and just use one hand. Forehand grip is semi western. One hand backhand is eastern. I really want to learn 2 handed backhand and just transition to it..i think its more stable and trusty that one handed stroke.
So anyway, how can I learn 2 handed backhand when my first insticnt is to just run around and play a forehand or in bad situations, just use backhand to slice ball back?
I will appreciate any video and tips. Any pro whose style is simple and clean and that I can copy? Wta or atp, doesnt matter to me. Surprisngly i have a very good forehand so I am not worried abt that...just need to know how to position myself for 2 handed backhand and how to use stroke, mechanics etc so I can atleast rally ball from backhand side..thanks.
