5 Awesome Jannik Sinner Forehand Tips (Improve Your Tennis)
1. It’s ok to use a closed stance (especially in a low ball)
2. Show your back to the opponent during your unit turn
3. Approach ball with closed racket face
4. Mics racket from below hand to above hand during hitting zone
5. Finish over the shoulder

So you agree with even allowing the left hand to help start the swing on the forehand when employing the unit turn?

[@2MinuteTennis]

As a swing thought to help you not be late? Of course. Thanks!

[@hirokazukishimoto7632]

Thanks Ryan I will try tomorrow.

Ryan is one of the better technique guys on KZbin and def one of the better ones at analyzing videos. His videos are almost always spot on and he explains it in laymans terms so people can easily understand and more importantly replicate. Forget the power comment from the unit turn you can’t turn your shoulders without coiling. But more importantly it’s power easier and more sustainable bc of clean technique. The more you use the body not your arm like a lot of rec players do (no use of the left hand) the better you can play for longer. But the strings pointing towards the ground is key to help impart spin. IMO one the biggest mistakes rec players make is not using that left hand more to do the unit turn, hold the racket in your hand before you serve, putting into the left hand after every point to relax the arm. Just my .02

Great tip and racket below the hand at contact is good “visual” when i hit the ball as it just naturally allows my hand to “release” provided swing finishes up (ala your windscreen wiper on the side) 👍

[@kennethpaul5784]

Gd morning Ryan. Love all ur vidoes

[@2MinuteTennis]

Wow thank you Kenneth! I really appreciate you letting me know! Sometimes I make videos and I wonder if they’re resonating with people. Thanks for the support!

[@gregoryphillips3969]

I wanted to your opinion on something which has really helped me solve the problem of being late on the forehand. On the unit turn the left hand stays on the racquet as you are turning. My issue l believe was that l was letting go of the racquet too quickly with my left hand which stops the coil and was causing me to be late. I saw a really good video which said not only to keep the left hand on longer but allow it to actually help start the forward swing before you release it. I did this and it solved my issue. I am no longer late on the forehand. I believe this something that pros with great forehands do but it happens so fast it's missed. What are your thoughts, this seems to work.

[@2MinuteTennis]

I like that. Great idea. I teach something similar on the one hander. Thanks!!!

[@mikakosonen1225]

Watch carefully how Sinner rotates the racquet behind his back. Where are the stings pointing at? That is the key for the next gen forehand. It is not mentioned in this video.

[@denevt1757]

*You are extremely right !!!* *Finally, at least one normal comment!!!*

[@igo2054]

Which forehand is your favorite on tour Ryan?

[@2MinuteTennis]

Probably alcaraz.

[@Sep45]

I like that, despite the chicken legs, he’ll shamelessly wear those short shorts 👍🏻

[@pakchu2]

About tip number 2, having your back visible to your opponent because you are coiled sufficiently. Do you think this should be a priority below the 4.5/5.0 level? I don't think I play with a single person who's *main* problem is that they lack power as a result of not coiling enough; our main problem is always some type of inconsistency. And coiling like Sinner's example here has the drawback of requiring even better timing, early prep., footwork, etc.

[@goldencalf5144]

That's odd. The number one problem with the forehand I see at the rec level is players not turning their shoulders sufficiently. The only way to turn the shoulders with an open or semi open stance is to coil. It's a problem I'm guilty of occasionally, even after 30 years of playing tennis. As soon as I remember to turn the shoulders and get good coil, my forehand is a lot more reliable with effortless power.

[@2MinuteTennis]

This👆

[@pakchu2]

@@goldencalf5144 turning the shoulders and coiling isn't the same thing, with the exception of the completely open stance. You can still get decent power if you just execute the unit turn, without rotating your torso past your hips. At any rate, it's def not the number one problem on the rec level

[@2MinuteTennis]

@pakchu2 I agree. It’s not the no. 1 problem.

[@goldencalf5144]

@@pakchu2 The only way you can properly turn your shoulders (ie. perpendicular to the net or preferably, past perpendicular) without using a neutral or closed stance is to coil. Basically, the more open the stance, the more coil you will need. That's just the way the human body works. Even with a neutral stance, a little bit of coil will make power generation easier. I'll concede it may not be the number one problem. Out of curiosity, what do you consider the main problem with the forehand at rec level?

[@DeltoidBeast]

That top spin pro is so useless. One penetrating forehand through the ball would break it completely. You are stopping penetration intentionally on the video. Much better exercise is just swinging the racket in the air, finding and feeling how to create maximum racket head speed.

[@2MinuteTennis]

Thanks for commenting!

[@yaromendy8346]

You are correct

[@dropshot118]

he advertises it in every video. Cant fault him for the side hustle lol

[@DeltoidBeast]

@@dropshot118 He seem to be good coach, I like his detailed views and analysis . He can be wrong too on some occasions, that is fine. Tennis is very complex game. But this top spin pro... What a junk of device.

[@pawelfronczyk1579]

He supinates his hitting arm a lot right before contact. How that pseudo teacher don't see it.

[@2MinuteTennis]

What makes you think I don’t see it?
