Love Henin's backhand back in the day but Parry's backhand is a thing of beauty! Haven't seen a backhand that beautiful on WTA in a while!!

Has to be the best female OHB in a long time... super clean!!

Thanks for sharing this...she's got a new fan in me.

A thing of beauty

Thanks for showing the side angle as well

Gorgeous ball striking!

glorious...wish her luck, she s just awesome for sticking to the 1 hander

Perfect form for a one-handed backhand.

Nice to see this.. I am impressed!

my favorite

Female single-handed backhand player, a rare spicy these days. Another good one is Vik Golubic from Switzerland.

Just hope she would get as far as possible.

Could you please upload a video of Paolini of Kalinskaya? Your footage quality is the best.

yes

😍

Thanks for sharing but why is it so short?

The way she lays the wrist reminds me of Stan

Beautiful Backhand! I don't know if against someone likes Sabalenka she can make points or put some difficults in her opponent...

It is good. Would like to see it in match play to see its effectiveness. Like her footwork, which helps set up the stroke.

Like all one-handers, her most favorable surface should be clay. Think she’s had decent results 2 or 3 years in a row @ Roland Garros

Extreme grip or just standard eastern backhand grip?

she has eastern grip right?

It's nice with the Henin grip, but she's just standing there knowing they're coming.

philipp kohlschreiber ?

I don’t want to start a gender debate but her technique is way closer to ATP’s than the WTA’s usual wider and slower strokes we usually see.

She would dominate most matches if she trusted her bh more, but I guess she just doesn't. She she waaaay too make timid, conservative slices that gradually allow her opponents to take over the point. Too bad, cause she's got the skills and the technique to do it, unlike Tsitsipas, who has a train wreck of a bh, with more mis-hits than you can count.

Viktorjia Golubic has the best one handed in WTA since Suarez Navarro retired. Parry's is quite unstable actually.

I wonder why she adopted this stroke? I thought youth coaches stopped juniors from playing w/ it

Most hands become second nature, it’s when the shit it’s the fan is when the best hands are played

Just watched highlights of her match with Fernandez. She hit mostly slice backhands. Only one solid backhand in the first set. Great practice backhand, not so much so in match play.

Fernandez hits at very early timings, at the rising path almost 80% of the time (that is why she never positions too far behind the baseline). In many cases, she hits right after the ball bounces. This means for the opponents that shots come back earlier (a shorter time to react). So your observation makes sense because a slice backhand requires minimal preparation/takeback.

@@momotama8640 understood. She has 2 options to hitting a backhand. Step back a few steps off the baseline or shorten her backswing to hit a driving backhand. The video was touting her backhand as being great. she also hit the slice on the backhand side that landed short.

@@txlonghorn638 it is a great backhand when you see it in practice. The video claims best female backhand. Watched her match with sakarri last night. She hit mostly slice backhands and maybe that is her strategy. It almost worked. She also runs around her backhand to hit a forehand. She has a solid forehand and obviously believes in it. I always would swing away in practice as well. But, how i practiced is how I played in matches. Not a confused critic. An educated one who calls it like I see it.

She is the only one. Of course she is the best

Non frequent to see a female player hitting a one handed backhand.

The only* one hand backhand in the WTA.

Sounds good in theory but in actual matches she slices 90% of her backhands.

I love Diana's game, but with a one hander she has difficulty playing around the baseline. The women's game is full of two handed bashers.

The ability to play nearer to the baseline has nothing to do with a player having a 1-handed vs. a 2 handed backhand. It has to do with the player's overall speed and agility.
