Tennis Forehand Wrist Lag - Use THIS Simple Trick To Create Lag

It's beautiful and easy to explain BUT it's almost impossible to replicate because it's hard to control.
You can record yourself and it feels like you're doing it but the ball goes to orbit no matter how relaxed it feels.
Just think about it: If it was easy, everybody would be doing it at the club level. Go to tennis clubs and see everyone with a stiff arm because it's the only way they can control it - and then a handful of excellent players how are able to execute it.

Thanks for the tips Simon, love the examples with the pros! Thanks for the help

Higher racket head, I found this independently recently, but being distracted by trying to drop the head low, maybe on low balls though. Should probably be slicing low balls anyway. Good advise for OHBH too.

Awesome video! I was looking for something like this. I have both arms injured with tennis elbow. You talk about stiffness as a common reason of right arm injure but, may it also affect to the left arm in 2 backhanded player? Its true that I grip tight so...

What’s your racket’s grip size? On video it appears…

Stop trying to create lag 😂😂😂 just swing and let physics do its job. Thinking about this crap is what is ruining your swing. No good player in the world worries about lag 😂😂😂

Hey Simon, forehand is a little like Rune's... In action, not outcome lol... I do feel that I'm using my forehand to maintain the racket head above my wrist.. Do you think this is bad?

Great to see you back my friend. Hope you're doing well and Turkey is being good to you and family.
Some truly great advice as always.
Cheers,
M

Thanks

THANK YOU SIMON!!

great video Simon! Many thanks

Is there some kind of stock film bank for forehands. It seems like I see the same forehand clips of pros over and over again.

Hi Simon, im coming from ohio and I was wondering if you knew why i had pain between my index knuckle and also the base of my thumb, i tried adding some overgrips to make the grip size larger but it still hasn't worked, but I don't feel pain when I focus most of my grip near my ring finger/ pinky when hitting forehands, any help with be huge🙏🏼

Great lesson Simon👊Will you be playing any ITF's this summer?

Changed to the Aero VS? Or previously taken material? Do you like the sensations on Aero 98 more?

You are 💯 right, especially when you said you will get injured by arming it. I know from experience, arming the ball to get power 😢

Good stuf

Good stuff. A coach who walks the talk 💪👍

Nice video. But you don’t just do the coil first do you but get your feet moving first to get into position? I mean shouldn’t you put your right foot back first (if righty)?

excelent Simon, now can you please make a series of videos on how to imitate forehands and backhands of top ATP players? Thank you!

Thank you very much for those good advice! 👍

do you mentally try to initiate the motion with the shoulder or just upper torso?
