Women's Final: One-Hander Justine vs. Two-Hander Svetlana
Friday June 9, 2006
Justine Henin-Hardenne has arguably the best one-handed backhand (FAQ) in women's tennis, plus a powerful forehand (FAQ) and serve (FAQ) and great mobility. Svetlana Kuznetsova's forehand is her biggest weapon, but her two-handed backhand has good topspin and power, and she also covers the court quite well. One interesting aspect of the French Open women's final should be the tactics each player uses against the other's backhand. See Attacking the One-Handed Backhand and How to Beat a Two-Hander for some of the tactics to look for.
