The Maestro, Roger Federer in a practice session at the 2014 BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells CA. Fed's practices draw such a large crowd, they have to designate a small stadium court to accommodate all the fans.

To appreciate what you are watching, one must play the game. The ease with which depth, direction and speed of shot are controlled and maintained for rallies of 20 + shots is a thing of beauty which will not be seen again when he finally hangs up the racquet. It is the art form of a Master.

Sir, that's the point of perfect tennis shot! You need to relax you arm and use it as a "whip" to obtain spin, power and accuracy.
@kxr_s3 жыл бұрын
Almin Jahic how do you aim and apply perfect spin? I think of it as a whip but it’s so uncomfortable
@ianthebubbian61823 жыл бұрын
@@kxr_s The essence of a whip is not having to use any effort at all, but producing a "snap" at the end without actually using it. If you let the racquet head drag through the entire stroke, and lead the stroke by rotating your hips (the base of the stroke) rather than through your shoulders or wrist, it creates the effect of the whip naturally.

1. The number of balls he hits at middling warm-up pace is a lot. Much more than club level players like me who are eager to get to full pace balls. 2. His warm up balls have a lot of spin and shape. Still plenty of racket head speed. He doesn't start to flatten out his shots consistently for 7-8 minutes, and then he's still mostly hitting up the middle. A very gradual progression. 3. He keeps his feet moving constantly from the very start of the warm up.
