In tennis, the backhand stroke will have more power if the weight is equally on both feet as the racket is swung. If the backhand stroke is a weak link for the player, it is also good to lean into the shot with the body to promote more stability.
A backhand drop shot in tennis is a delicate shot played close to the net that lands softly over the net, making it difficult for the opponent to reach. It is executed by using a backhand grip, slicing the ball with underspin, and gently tapping it over the net with a short and controlled swing.
An groud stroke is a forehand or backhand that the ball is lower than a regular shot when you hit it. It usually has topspin.
To execute a backhand stroke in tennis, start by positioning yourself sideways to the net with your non-dominant shoulder facing it. Grip the racket with both hands (for a two-handed backhand) or with one hand (for a one-handed backhand), ensuring your grip is firm yet relaxed. As the ball approaches, step into the shot, rotate your hips and shoulders, and swing the racket back before making contact with the ball, following through to complete the stroke. Focus on timing and balance to maximize power and accuracy.
