The second installment of FYB’s strategy quiz deals with Roger Federer’s inside-out forehand. Roger is always looking to hit an inside-out forehand during a backhand to backhand exchange with his opponent. There’s something about Federer’s backhand shot selection that gives him many opportunities to hit an inside-out forehand — do you know the answer?
Quick note: The down-the-line forehand I talk about is called an “inside-in forehand.” Forgot to mention that in the video. I included a Youtube annotation with the same correction but wanted to point it out here as well to make sure you saw it.
