Roger Federer's special shot

Not only Roger Federer had one of the best slide backhands of all-time, but he had also a very special shot. Unique in the history of tennis. #tennis #federer #rogerfederer #coach #tenniscoach #tennishistory

Roger was not able to achieve the " all time " record but he was a magician and there never was and most likely never will be another with the combination of artistry, fluidity, magic, racket skills and court IQ like Roger.

Roger's artistry led many people to take up tennis and then realize that it wasn't as easy as he made it look 😊

[moritzmetten]

I love how this guy talks about tennis. It‘s so nice to listen to it😄

[purplerain]

what an explanation for us who don't understand anything about techniques. I never ever realised this detail that comes naturally to federer. God given talent

[jarrettfinney]

My dad is a terrible tennis player, yet somehow he manages to do this every time wer play just because of how he hits the ball lol

[JodyRosen-kriw]

Roger had a very good style of play. That slice back hand was very effective. 🤩🌟🎾👍

[dazza]

Please talk about the Roger Federer half volley backhand shot.

[peterpanagopoulos]

I play with an older gent that does something very similar….gets me every time 😅

[lenwelch]

Perfect explanation . Evert hit a side spin forehand that bounced away from her opponent .

[sistoferri]

IF YOU CAN EXPLAIN THAT, YOU HAVE IT ! SO I HAVE IT LIKE YOU DEAR PATRIK

[Kidgloves]

Roger best slice backhand? Absolutely!

[md.ziadul]

Roger might not have won grand slams more than his rivals but he was artistic among the three. You gotta admit that

[hotstixx]

First time you get to see exactly how muscular and sinewy his forearm is.Not surprising when you consider the weight of his racket.

[TheGarfield]

I think this is why he often struggled against Rafa cause his immense spin on left handed forehand could allow him to counter the sliced cross backhand

[sebastiencourtois]

nobody talk about his short crosscourt forehand on the run, taken behind him

[pedropaivalemos]

Gustavo' kuerten as well used to do this shot...

[roybuitink]

Funny how he shows at the end how a top spin ball rotates instead of a slice ball🤣

[panneetantinukul]

Easy said than done. It's looked simple but effective. And only Roger can do that.

[bobbydazzler]

The ball can’t possibly rotate on two axis once it’s in free motion off the strings. It’s an effect of one spin and a direction vector change.

[zeddeka]

Shame that nobody taught Stefanos Tsitsipas how to hit a decent slice backhand....
