Tennis Forehand | How Djokovic Gets Spin

The key to Djokovic and any other great player crushing tennis forehands and keeping them in play has to do with getting the right amount of spin on their tennis forehand. If you got to see Djokovic win the US Open this year, you'll notice he does something very specific every time he takes his racquet back on the tennis forehand. Djokovic actually gets his strings to point towards the back fence on his tennis forehand before he swings at the ball. Pointing your strings back towards the back fence on the tennis forehand, like Djokovic, will allow your strings to close before contact. Closing your strings before contact on the tennis forehand will allow you to brush up the back of the ball creating lots of spin like Djokovic does. If you find yourself having trouble getting spin on your tennis forehand, try getting your strings to point towards the back fence when you take your racquet back during your tennis forehand.
