The Slice Backhand: Part 1

John Craig

If you happened to see Grigor Dimitrov at Indian Wells, you saw how a beautiful one-handed slice still works at the highest levels. Over the years we have published many articles on the slice including in my teaching series. (Click Here.)

But John Craig's perspective adds a lot. In this series he not only goes over the technical, he'll show the tactical for all those players below the pro level.

John is a former Division I Collegiate player with over 35 years of playing, coaching and teaching experience. He is an Elite member of the USPTA, and has been an avid player, student and coach since his passion for tennis flourished in 1976. Based in Orange County, California, John has developed hundreds of students into quality players over the course of 3 decades.

John has held a variety of prestigious tennis positions, including serving as the Director of Tennis at the legendary John Wayne Tennis Club in Newport Beach, CA. John was also the founder and Director of The Edge Tennis Academy, a high-performance Junior Development program, also in Newport Beach. In addition to developing his latest project - Performance Plus Tennis, John is also a Pro at the Newport Beach Tennis Club.
