Great question. Now that the cat is out of the bag and his opponents will be aware of the change I think they’ll try to isolate his backhand even more than before.

I must have commented on this back when you uploaded it at the beginning of this year. Anyhow, 6 months ago we had to change my kid’s FH as well. Her takeback used to be high elbow, away from the body with racquet head pointing forward. She ended up injuring the long biceps tendon (due to an over pronated serve) so, she wasn’t able to hit her usual forehand. Pain is a great equalizer so I figured it’d be the perfect time to help her make the chance. Using “pain management” lol because she wasn’t able to lift her arm, we quickly adjusted her takeback with less of a loop, elbow more relaxed with racquet head pointing to the ground, and hitting an inside out (from hip to outward) FH. Huge difference, especially with timing and less over exaggerated movements. Now if we could just figure out the 2HBH, we’d be in biz… lol Great content by the way!

In my opinion, the reason they changed the technique is that raising the elbow while throwing the forehand can cause shoulder pain. It is also worth considering that these ligaments also hurt when serving. We saw the consequences of shoulder injuries, in particular tendonitis, at the US Open as a result of cupping therapy.

@Joffaburger
@Joffaburger 6 месяцев назад
Would be interested on your take on his right hand orientation and right elbow position. It's seems the new swing marries with his right hand position ie thumb up elbow down. In his old elbow position I would ask him to try thumb down ala Lendl which would lift his right elbow balancing out the issue with the high left elbow and inverted rac face...there are certain synergies between the front and back elbow positions during the swing that need to be balanced.

@tehatte
@tehatte 5 месяцев назад
Oh one more big change I noticed but you didn’t point out. In the follow-through, the old way you can see his hitting elbow didn’t move much, still stays on left side of his body, while in the new way the elbow keeps moving around the body, meaning he now uses the body rotation more, adding power, which can make up for the lost power due to shorter swing path. Also I think it will help reduce chances for injury on his elbow and wrist because the old way used too much of the elbow and wrist. You can pause the video around 1:07 to see this.

Wasn’t mentioned but I think one key component that might’ve been apart of the right frame was the follow through.

Ben Shelton exhibits early tennis mechanics of early age tennis instruction. Once an athlete internalizes technique it becomes resident (dominant status), and can be repeated (bad habit)! Considerable specialized motor conditioning and great effort are required to transfer prior learned resident mechanics to secondary status (non-dominant) in competition settings.

We watched different matches then. His big swings got exposed. Lost because Novak was better not cause of nerves. Serve needs better placement and disguise, made a great change already by reducing all that's going on in the forehand. That's the mistake of the next gen forehand, takes too long to unload. Watch their serves return stats from the forehand (e.g. Musetti, Khachanov, Shelton last year, Kokkinakis, Kyrgios, Shapovalov) they all suffer from the time it takes. Changing directions is a pain with it

I@@TennisUnleashed I am not so sure the mass is the problem. Could be a part of the problem. Identifying his movement issues will be difficult and fixing them more so. I have been working on a book about why American's struggle. Ben is just another example of decades of sub par movement. Here is a stab. Split Step is too high, particularly on his return. His legs look out of line. Watch him walk. Some imbalance there. It would take slow mo to identify, but seems like one hip has less flexibility than the other. Core strength plus your suggesting of less upper body would help. His upper body often out of control leading to sloppy first move. The USTA under Higuerus talked alot o movement but did little refined analysis. Ben's posture is not great. It would take some serious analysis but I think i he addresses these things he could do some damage. If not he will just get tired.

That’s true. But you’re assuming I’ve only looked at one shot before making this video. Just because I’m only analyzing one shot in this video doesn’t mean I’ve only looked at one shot before creating this video. I was a full time pro analyst for a living. I wouldn’t put this information out there if I wasn’t sure the changes were made. Thanks for watching. -Jason Frausto

its kinda an alcaraz copy. Look at the grip on the throat, top pointing 45 degrees, heavy torso rotation. main difference is the bent elbow

Forehand is much worse now and he cant hit a forehand return. Its because he is hitting with more arm now instead of taking it with his body. Hes off now with his body weight. First forehand was much more natural

Too much cosmetic talking .. take in consideration right now on faster courts ! Shortened the swing and lower prep. Indian wells and the spring swing slower courts - bigger swings .. so Yes maybe he worked on it on purpose maybe just the surface… but biomechanics still the same!!! And yes the contact hight does the difference

Shelton needs an even bigger maturity change. He should binge watch Sinner, Alcaraz, Federer, Nadal, even Djokavic to learn how to behave in public. Obviously his dad is a very poor parent and can't teach him life after pre-school.
