  • I love watching these videos that get HIGHLY technical but, Djokovic could be like “dude I’m just hitting the ball”

    • well i mean at this point to him he’s just hitting the ball at some point he’s had to train that muscle memory

    • Yeah, you try really hard to do all these things but it just keeps falling apart. Eventually u realise you just have to hit it

    • @@user-dv4dh8mf9t not really. You wanna learn this stuff and then hit the shot. But the key is to not think about it WHILE you hit the shot. Think "okay this is how i want to hit the shot" then relax and let it happen when the ball comes to you. The information is good but you just cant overthink it when youre trying to actually hit the shot

    • The other big important thing is to make sure you take it step by step. Try learning to take the racquet back as displayed in the video, and try hitting your own forehand like normal with that. Then once thats incorporated into your form, try the next step

  • What a great analysis! Another important aspect of Djokovic's forehand is the elbow elevation during the unit turn. It stays almost at same level of his shoulders. It helps to keep the racket at same side of the body during the swing phase.

  • Very good analysis! I am 70 years old but never learned tennis properly. I have not come close to mastering all 6 points. But the unit turn and the three fingered grip has definitely improved my forehand. Never heard a better explanation about the position and purpose of the left hand (right hand for lefties).

  • I've only realised recently how different this forehand is to whatever I grew up watching in the 80s and 90s - thanks for talking us through this and telling us what is happening at each point in the shot. Apart from watching ivdeos of players in slo-mo it's also similar discoveries about how differently badminton shots are made to what I thought they were - not that they're at all the same, but once you examine the anatomy of a shot you realise it's a whole different principle at work. If anything's similar there it's that the shot is relaxed most of the way, the body is used with a windup action release, and a bent arm is really helpful in ensuring that snap happens.

Great work!

  • Kevin rocks, been following you for years, now the videos look Hollywood style, very focused and your explanations are tight, with the real world practice examples making total sense. I think your stance is not as wide as Nole, plus he 'twists his ankle' to add to that hip rotation. It would be cool to have a stone rookie stand next to you for just a minute or two as it will take thousands of practice balls for us to emulate Nole, and to see a rookie use your tactics and improve might be unique. 48,000 subscribers!

  • Oh man -- fantastic! Holding the racquet longer with the left hand during prep/loading makes SO much sense! I am 50yo and my ears perk up every time I come across a tip that will help maintain power & control while reducing elbow & wrist fatigue (no windshield-wiper forehand for me, than you very much). That little extra bit of twist looks like it could allow my arm/wrist/elbow to work less hard -- and such a simple & easy thing to incorporate. i can't wait to try it at my match this weekend -- Thanks, Kevin!!

  • Great way to break it down! Even if it is a bit late for me to change my forehand and I (strive to) hit both forehand and backhand more like Federer anyway, it is helping my 6-year old start out building his forehand like this from the get go. And his strokes are getting heavier already!

  • Nice video Kevin, However, please note the difference between your follow through and Djokovic's follow through. Djolovic's hitting elbow is pointing towards the target. This is not only key for the direction and target the ball is hit, but it defines how the forearm rotates to help create topspin on the ball. As in all things. structure determines function. That is to say the physical positioning of the body has a functional relationship on how the ball is stuck.
