His backhand is really strong... his forehand is just not consistent enough when he goes for it.
his FH is stronger than his BH
need a couple of these experiences to make him stronger.
Looks a lot stronger to me, though he missed a few he shouldn't have. He almost hyperextends his elbow on many backhands. It's still a good shot, but I think it could be better if he kept it more compact. Might avoid elbow problems too in the future.
Damm that dude needs to do some one arm curls.
I meant where are you getting that from? Even amateurs often have bigger playing arms.
The idea that Quadri has no backhand is a myth, but your point is taken.
imagine if Aruna where to put Anti on his BH side. He could only concentrate 120% on his FH. Just a what-ifs situation...
That's the thing - Quadri opens with his backhand (ask Duda or Harimoto if you doubt this), he punches with his backhand and he fishes and spins with his backhand off the table when forced to go back. These are all strokes that only work powerfully with inverted. He also does a lot of sidespin pushes and chops when he can't read the serve. People who say he doesn't have a backhand are always thinking rally backhand topspin, and there is a point to this, but it is often overstated. Many "good players" with strong backhands have struggled to rally with Quadri's backhand because the quality you have to produce to overwhelm it is significant.
