I've been working on this lag and while I'm not consistent yet, when it happens it's so much more effective for power and topspin. I'll keep working on it. Thanks Doc.

Tnx for this tip. Racket head lags last in stroke sequence. Got it! Amazing that I ‘m learning this after 45 yrs of playing tennis.

Old school Pete and Andre didn't contact the ball that far in front or have as much lag as modern day players. The ATP forehand started with Fed in 2005 and created a revolution that has not changed in almost 20 years.

Federer has been by far the most creative pro on the tour.

They used a different forehand technique, the so called 'classic forehand'. With that technique you get the contact point behind that of the 'modern forehand' (that used by Federer).

When you say the racket head stays “in front of the hand”, do you mean the racket head is *closer the net* than the hand is? Or do you mean that the racket head is *closer to the side fence* than the hand is?

He means it in the sense that the hoop is farther away from the body than the hand. Depending on where in the takeback we're talking about, that could mean closer to the net than the hand, as in during inversion in the beginning. Or it could mean closer to the side fence when the hoop is on its way to Pat the Dog. Make sense?

racket head stays in front of hand ... doctor's orders .. . ignore at your own peril

What is missing from your analysis is WHY pros are doing this. Just my opinion, but it seems that the reason they apply this technique is to shorten their overall swing path while still being able to generate high racket head speed via the wrist lag and then wrist catchup at contact point. The SPEED of the male pro game necessitates the need to shorten the swing path. They are “swinging” to return 85+ mph ground strokes. It may not be necessary or desirable for a recreational player to generate high racket head speed via wrist lag - as it may make achieving correct racket position at the contact point (“timing”) more difficult. Perhaps applying some of this technique at a more moderate level would be more suitable to the majority of players…?

Not all players use the modern forehand technique with the lag. Incorrect statement.

@brandomaxwell 11 ай бұрын

You mean, not all pros? If so, I'm fascinated. Who doesn't use lag?

I played with Agassi and courier and my forehand (back then in 1985) was way harder. They’re both legends and I quit tennis back then but now I’m back and my stroke is very different. It’s compact I guess. More of what Blake did later on. Ok. Thanks for the video

@@ad-rock603 thanks! I’m going to do an interview in a video podcast and I’ll share some untold funny stories I have on Andre and some early days 🎾🤗

Agassi's right elbow is in his ribs on contact with the ball. Isn't that an amateur mistake? I'm surprised to see this

I think he got jammed by the ball.

@jimklein6958 11 ай бұрын

What’s sad, you stated this is for advanced tennis players and then state that anyone can do it. NO THEY CAN’T.

I am in my late 50s, playing since my early 30s. I have tried recently to implement what the tennis doctor espouses in his videos regarding the forehand. I have been able to make these changes. Unfortunately, it has not become automatic yet. Some days it works and others it doesn't. I would like to see some drills by the @tennisdoctoratp on how to make these movements more automatic.
