Really like this idea for a video series. Rare you get to hear from the pros why they do certain things and their perspective of it from such a high level.
Please do more of this series. Maybe focus on the guys who don’t have HUGE weapons and really need to excel tactically to win : Gilles Simon, Goffin, Schwarzman etc

That one is a gem among all Tennis TV videos. Great insights.
The slice backhand is a great shot. And like Grigor said, it's actually not an easy shot. The great thing about it is that you can hit it many different ways for different results and it's hard to read. You can float it deep as a neutral/defensive shot. You can take a bit off it to hit it short to draw your opponent in or make them hit a low shot. Or you can really knife it with power which can sometimes screw up a net person, especially if they're not on top of the net. Or you can hit it high to lob or just give you more time to get back into a good position. I think it's easier to learn than a one-handed topspin backhand and it's more versatile.

OHB players tend to fall back to slice when under pressure and as a result never develop a reliable topspin backhand. You can see this in most recreational level OHB players and even in Dimitrov to some degree. From my experience, stop slicing will do a lot of good to your topspin backhand.

@@gamingwithglasses4544 Two handed backhand is a very stable shot, it's not likely that you will develop a bad habit of falling back to slices under pressure. This is a unique problem that plague OHB players. If you follow popular youtube tennis channels, just pick a few at different levels (3.5 - 4.5) that featured a OHB player and watch matches that they choke and lost. I'll bet you they sliced a lot more than they normally do or should do.

Love interviews with Gael. This is another great series. You guys at Tennis tv are an oasis for us tennis fans, especially considering the fact that Wimby is giving us nothing but crumbs for highlights.
Love how everything tennis tv posts is entertaining. Roland Garros and Wimbledon highlights have been a joke. Thank you for putting in the effort for making good videos like this.
Top notch content, thanks guys
I really like this kind of videos. For a tennis amateur player like me works a lot for try to improve my game. Cant wait for the 2nd part!!
This is more of the content we need to see!
Love Monfils’ banter to the haters
1.) Returning from far behind. Advantage: you have way more time to adjust and the ball slows down. Precondition: return quickly to the base line center, over a longer distance. Hence you must be fast like Medved or Nadal. Disadvantage: hard to hit a return winner (need a lot of precision), high chance to return too short 2.) Backhand slice. Advantage: control the speed of the point and slow it down if you feel under pressure. Most players don't have the power and speed in their backhand shots to properly respond to an agressive shot. If you then play a top spin the ball is slow and maybe short / unprecise and the opponent will nail you into your backhand corner. Also reaching a low ball (you are late) is easier. Finally controlling length and direction is easier. Ideal shot to push the opponent out of the court Precondition: you must have the proper technique; else the shot will be too short and too high and the opponent will hit a winner as she/he has a lot of time to adjust and hit the ball in the perfect way. The backhand slice must be played actively! That's why a player like Nadal will chew on a backhand slice. His forehand side. All the time to play a forehand topspin will a lot or spin. Disadvantage: as a defensive shot you will likely seldom win a point with this shot directly. You can hardly set a good player under pressure. 3.) Trick shots are not tactical. They happen - but you don't plan on using them.

I like this type of videos 👍🏻
Very good video.
Monfils is such a vibe, definitly someone who I'd love to just chill with
The thing with a sliced backhand against the big baseliners is, they can get around the ball on their backhand side to bludgeon a forehand in the open court. But when used appropriately to pepper their forehand on the forehand side, it could be very effective. To beat a top spin heavy guy you need to neutralize the top spin from his racquet. A slice rotates the ball in the opposite direction of a top spin, thus keeping the ball low and in turn making the opponent hit a top spinning shot against the torque of the ball.
This is a very well edited video, especially coz of the background music
Soon 1 million subscribers. Hopefully
You gotta love Monfils!
Hahaha not monfils with the mindset behind those trickshots.
More of these videos
Good content
0:22 POV: when the music is so loud, the player has to shout to get one word in
I love that hipster music, it reminds me when I was medicated.
Friendly observation: The music mix is so high it bothers while trying to hear the players.
it's going to be one of my saddest days in tennis when monfils retires. what an inspiration of a player.
Very good video idea I suggest for the next time Maxime Cressy serve volley, Alex De Minaur physical and stifling game and Andrey Rublev simply crushes the ball with forhand
Lesson of the day - keep things simple, and trust your intuition.
Great video !! I don't like players interview from the ATP because they're cringe most of the time and are unrelated to tennis... To hear them talk about strategy and shot selection is however very insightful and interesting, looking forward to part 2
Topspin is the best response to slice. Ala Rafa
When can we expect part 2 ?
Dimi 🔥🔥🔥
"but me I will be like okay, easy way, BOOM. I open my legs, BOOM between the legs. BOOOM trickshots" I love Gael
Gael is the man :)
cool material. it´s curious how Rafa is always a reference to top players. #goatness
Grigor always plays better on days where he hits more backhands going over the ball, but it is one of my favorite shots to watch, his slice, just wish he didn’t resort to it as much as he does when he doesn’t need to

That’s true. You know he’s feeling it when he hits topspin backhands (he’s been doing this a lot since Monte Carlo). His slice can get him out of trouble and also is a great strategic shot against certain players who can’t handle it well - Opelka/Isner, Medvedev etc
A very interesting video but the background music is distracting when we are trying to listen to the players.
Great video idea. No music needed tho!
Love this idea and please continue the series. But seriously, you don't need poorly mixed background music when players are giving interviews. It's extremely distracting
Hit better!
Why is the second place tied between Dimitrov and Ruud? (1-2-2-3)
A few I’d like to see Tsitsipas’ inside-in forehand Murray’s lob Alcaraz’s forehand drop shot Wawrinka’s backhand Djokovic’s return of serve
7:10 obviously
When people say I have good half volleys I'm like.... 10:24 - 10:45

Ah yes, my favourite tactic: Flair.
Hey TennisTV I am in the minority here, but I really like the music in this video can you please tell me what the title is? Thanks a lot.

Nice interviews, but could we lose the backing track? An annoying loop that takes away from what's being said. Thanks.
Never slice against Rafa. No brainer.
what monfils says is exactly right, its a game about winning. in badminton, trickshots happens every so often because your body allows it. why not tennis?
Danlil could easily win a case against Wimbledon with the International court of Justice. He was discriminated by Wimbledon because of his background. He was judged on bias not by merits, as he is a peace loving man. I hope he sues Wimbledon.
