In The Spotlight: Does Roger Have The Best One Handed Backhand In Tennis? The backhand is often cited as Roger’s weakness but that’s mainly because his forehand is so good it overshadows what is still an excellent shot. The biggest asset as far as I’m concerned with Roger’s backhand is the versatility and the maneuverability he has with the shot. He’s capable of top spin, slice, half volleys and in some cases pure genius. He’s also capable of creating something out of nothing on that wing, be it suddenly changing direction of the ball, the most delicate of flicks or the gutsiest passing shot of all time. If you had to cite one weakness it’d be against the high bouncing ball which often causes him trouble, we’ve seen it on clay against Nadal time and time again and when that wing gets peppered it can break down and make critical errors that which often holds the key to the match. But when it comes to indoor courts and low bouncing hard courts I really don’t think there’s much better out there. Strengths: Variety, Racquet head control, Ability to hit a winner from nowhere, Half volleying. Weaknesses: High bouncing ball causes problems, Tendency to make errors, and doesnt hit up the line that often. What do you think? Who has the best one handed backhand in tennis?
