Wawrinka is more dynamic than graceful. The same goes for Thiem

Federer and Gasquet are so beautiful to watch play. Such elegant styles of play.

I think the most important thing thing a player on amateur to intermediate level can learn from this, is how effortless and loose their swings are. Recreational players seem to tense up when hitting the ball. Even while using very little strength, these pros are able to hit the ball harder than an amateur player. Because it is not about power, it is all about racket head speed.

The Federer forehand and the Gasquet backhand. Two of the prettiest shots in tennis.

The Federer backhand is the most aesthetic shot in tennis history

Gasquet backhand stroke is a pleasure to watch...so is Federer's

That pace is INSANE in person I'm sure. They make it look so damn easy.

Andrew Joseph I recently hit with a 16 year old who had won the 18 and unders in his city of 13,000,000. His casual rally FH cleared the net by 4 to 6 feet with a draw and bounced up to my shoulder (I stand 6' 0"). His reaction to the pace of this cooperative hitting session was, "My gosh, how quick that ball comes back!"

I still use that racket currently.The control is insane.Ive tried the 97 rf but nothing compares to the feeling of the ps 90.Its surprisingly easy to hit and you can still pick up god condition for 200 bucks.Prices will most likely increase over the years

Can you imagine watching the US Open final at this angle? That might be the most amazing tennis TV experience ever

Yah he didn't say much in the video

My 2 favorites players !

beautiful, i can watch them all day

this is my ASMR; utterly relaxing

Federer's forehand is just so fluid in that it so effortlessly does its thing.

the way the ball gets pull down to the ground from Federer's forehand is beautiful.

The single handed backhand beautiful, should be a premier tennis league for this skill

Federer seems to prepare late on his backhand and doesn't turn his body enough. Thanks, I love these court level videos.

3:22 This racquet was released on 2013

Ok but did anyone notice at 0:15 how nonchalone and accurate that pop up to the ball dude was, like wtf 😂

Tristan Cota: WTF is my default response to what Federer is able to do...

it changed a lot the last couple of years because in my opinion he started to make it more flat specially in Wimbledon so he could spend less energy on his shots. In 2005 he used to finish a lot of points with his brutal inside out forehand, now he is more old and he needs to get a way so he can't spend so much energy. One of the things that federer have today is that he hardly gets tired even with 3 or 4 sets....GENIUS!

I LOVE that sound!!!

Roger's so confident of his backhand - when he shanks one, he checks the court surface (0:22)

Yea- saying NO WAY could that be me framing the ball- Genius!

0:14 Obviously RF wanted to give the ball to the man back there, so the other man could go through the court. Roger you are a genius!

this is the visual equivalent to listening to Mozart - very calming and engrossing

that fh swing of Rogers is just awesome! The greatest of all time

Those one handed backhand are hypnotizingly elegant.

I love how federer's one hander is more relaxed here, while gasquet's still has all the flare even in this light warm up.

they go back and forth, also between forehand and backhand. All their shots are so flat racket head with good spin.. it is amazing.

Does anyone else LOVE one handed back hands compared to two-handed? They are so much more graceful and better to watch, I think. Especially Federer's.

I can watch this all day

I love this angle! It shows how hard the freakin hit...

10 minutes of pure gold.

This is probably the most relaxing video in the world.

that was unreal, I hope he does it in a tournament one day.

this is gold disguised as a video

Federer is just being nice to have those guys hang around watching. What are they going to improve his ground strokes? They're watching like they are about to give him some tips after he's done. LMAO

probably the 2 best backhands to play the game

If you watch this enough you'll be able to imitate federers strokes in no time ;))

the swing is everything

you can hear someone in the audience literally climax after that last backhand overhead

Learning a lot watching this

the spin on the ball Gasquet put with his backhand side is crazy....

omg this quality is amazing.

Two most talented players in the game right now.

federers forehand has so much topspin its insane

i can feel the wind from Roger's swing of his racket

Top one handed backhanders of the tour.

Look at Gasquets free swinging backhand. Amazing one hander.

this is so relaxing

Two favourite guys to watch.

this video makes me feel hypnotyzed..

Boy, the height Fed gets on his forehand is unreal. It's a 2/3 a meter over the net and then drops right inside the baseline. Crazy.

watching roger at 720p with full screen feels so great...

so relaxing to watch....

beautiful.. really!!!

@jazzswingsoulblues That's what I noticed also. It shows that power comes from hitting the ball cleanly... Not swinging really hard or "arming" it.

beautiful battle of tennis ! like this !

I feel like it should be obvious that these guys are not giving their 100% effort in this video since they're only hitting to warm up. Yet there are so many comments about how they aren't hitting correctly, or are playing bad, etc. PROFESSIONALS SAVE THEIR REAL GAME FOR MATCHES. Do not think by watching this video that Federer doesn't know how to hit a forehand. 17 grand slams say otherwise.

just did my yoga by watching this video

federer is so casual lol. not even bending his legs

Yeah Fed is hitting the ball methodically at a slower pace to set his form and rythmn. Obviously he's not going balls to the wall. Try it next time you get on a court instead of blasting and spraying balls around. You might see your game jump up if you hit like that an hour or two 4 times per week. Find your form and rythmn first then gradually up your pace like most any other sport.

Ricearoni80 That's not the point. Gasquet is one of the few players on Tour who will willingly run around a shot to hit a backhand. He trusts his backhand the way Federer doesn't. Same goes for Wawrinka; his backhand is his better shot.

@TheExiledTexan

Ricearoni80 It's not the point. The OP doesn't want Fed to have Gasquet's exact backhand; he wants Fed to have the trust that Gasquet has in his backhand. Fed's never been as comfortable with his one-hander as Gasquet has been with his.

nadal was consistent enough to win 9 titles at Roland Garros. More than any other player in any other tournament....I'd say thats pretty consistent. Let that sink in. 9 titles at RG. Plus Nadal owns the head to head against Fed. Again, quite consistent. And you can't call any player inconsistent just watching him practice...He probably goes hard in practice so he can emulate match conditions. Have you seen him actually play? I dont see him hit every 3rd ball in the net in matches lol. Nadal is only 3 down on Fed for titles and if he keeps healthy I bet he could win another 3. Djokovic needs a slice of humble pie lately. Btw this is coming from a guy who always preferred Fed to win over Nadal, but I am a tennis fan foremost and can appreciate every player for who they are.

this is actually hypnotizing

That little flick of the wrist around his back at 6:10 is quite sweet looking.

We love you Roger, you are the best.

Federer actually hits with more topspin than it looks like on tc. I also saw him practice in 09 before annacone and he ran around slot of backhands in practice but it seems here he is trying to hit through them.... Go Roger

I would pay much more money to see these trainings than a grand slam final! :(

Because Roger uses a semi-western forehandgrip for his forehand and a eastern backhandgrip for his backhand, and hits with the same side (sometimes) he only has to move his hand about an inch to switch from forehand to backhandgrip

The diferrence between his arms is ginormous.

federer gets all that power from the backhand on such an easy swing. damn

so good to watch

Tennis matches on TV should be shown from this angle. It shows how low the ball travels across the net and how hard it is to get the right angle to hit the corners.

love how they go backhand to backhand just for fun :)

Last overhead smash was awesome

Federer has very good forehand and volleys.

they are so consistent

Oh, just Federer showing us his greatness.

I watch it everyday

If you knew nothing about tennis and watched this clip, you would think that both players were about equal.

it is so great!

I would love to see a doubles match between Federer, Gasquet, Wawrinka and Shapavalov. Just single handed backhands everywhere

I would say that gasquet's smash feeds were truly excellent.

Amazing. I tend to favor Pete over Fed but the beauty and fluidity of Fed's game cannot be denied. It is uncanny.

holy CRAP that's scary i didn't even notice till u pointed it out o.O

I love gasquets crazy high top-spin backhand at 4:30 ish, looks like he's doing some sorta jedi move the way he flicks his racquet on the follow through lol

I love seeing two single back handers on one court.

federer's backhand is just so smooth

DID ANYONE NOTICE THAT AT 0:14 WHEN FEDERER SHANKS THE BALL, THE GUY ON THE OTHER END OF THE COURT CATCHES IT??? FEDERER IS JUST THAT PERFECT

I swear Fed has the most beautiful slice in the history of the game

anyone catch that Federer no-look backhand overhead at 8:57? that was insane cool and he made it look so easy

@roninsana This is warm up. In match play he gets sufficient preparation for his strokes. Also check out the second half of this session and you will see him taking bigger cuts as he has warmed up. Peace.

when i was 12 i had to decide between a one-handed and a tow-handed backhand...and I'm SOOOOOOO glad i chose the one handed ;)

Cette chaine est fantastique ! Ils attendent quoi a la télé pour nous proposer les mêmes prises de vues...

gasque owns federer in this!

8:56 I have never seen such amazing smash, what a trajectory

federer backhand is so good
