    I’m amazed this style of modern forehand. The timing of that massive wrist snap is crazy. The results are interesting. Watching him here it looks amazing so much spin and control over the shot. More net clearance than I see from a lot of other top players which means more spin and a safer more consistent shot. Buuut a forehand that requires such perfect timing also can tend to breakdown under pressure. It does look beautiful tho!

    Really nice watching proper practice session. In a normal recreational day to day tennis...most of us just jump into playing loll due to limited timeslot for play or impatience.

    Superb backhand but seems like he hits his forehand at the very last second with a snap of the wrist. This is a first time I have watched Thanasi. He is definitely a very challenging player to deal with on hardcourt.

    Not sure why but his backhand has always looked slightly off to me and it gets picked on in matches since it is not as much of a weapon as the FH

    Whenever I hit against my table tennis robot, I don't feel like I'm improving. Drills like this isn't improving anything. They should be drilling serve and volley or play practice matches. Just sitting back and hitting the ball isn't going to help you in a match when your opponent isn't cooperating.
