I am not going too far out on a limb here but I predict there will be less than a total of three combined one-handed backhanders on the men’s and women’s tour that make the quarterfinals at Indian Wells this year. That is three out of 16.

A lot of energy is devoted to improving weaknesses. But what about making the big shot even bigger? If you’re like Nadal and have made your forehand the cornerstone of your game, have you done everything you can with it?
