Speed and Spin in the Current Men’s Game (1 of 3) Casper Ruud's forehand from a central baseline position, filmed from a side CourtLevel angle. His follow-through wraps high over the shoulder with the non-hitting hand pulling back for counterbalance as he lands on his front foot and quickly resets into a ready position.
