Have a Question for Me?

Let's face it the internet is a mystery to all of us.

Not for me--anyone else???

Very snappy here in the UK. Takes but a second to login.

Hi John, just wondering if you have noticed that lately the time to login has gotten very long. Or is it only me?

[johnyandell]

In fact it is.

Gliche...

I don't think so. Playing fine here in California. Anyone else?

Ok…a gliche across the pond. But I was trying to view it to see if this might be a good shot for your backhand recovery step.

Snafu?

Is there something amiss in the stroke archive? I cannot play the Don Budge backhand side view…

[johnyandell]

You mean in the regular archive right? That was a composite of maybe three years pre 2009. High Speed archives are more recent.

Hello,

What was the year when you filmed Federers forehand from stroke archive? (not the one that says 2009)

Thanks!

[johnyandell]

Yes, yes it is.

Phil thanks for Belle Epogue. It is really good.

Thank you...

Thanks John, I'll work on the left arm on both strokes as you suggested.

[johnyandell]

Phil,

Love the strong, upright posture and natural racket speed. I would (as I may have previously mentioned) work to stretch the left arm harder across on the forehand turn. Your turn is better than 99% of club players but it could be world class.
On the backhand, I would try opposing or driving the back left arm back more aggressively and further. You don't look a day over 55!
