Reverse Forehand or Buggy Whip Forehand

Key Points

• The reverse forehand allows you to generate maximum racket head speed when in defensive positions
• Some of the best players in history use this shot on a regular basis including Maria Sharpaova, Pete Sampras, Rafael Nadal and Lindsay Davenport
• Practicing the reverse forehand can help players loosen up their arm and improve their normal swing
• Use it when you’re on the run, when cramped and don’t have room to take a full swing, or occasionally on the low forehand approach shot or in-to-in forehand
