Jelena Jankovic Photos: Picture Gallery of Strokes
By Jeff Cooper, About.com Guide
This photo shows the backswing Jelena Jankovic uses to hit a forehand with a Semi-Western grip and a semi-open stance. The somewhat downward angle of Jelena's stringbed on the backswing will result in a vertical stringbed at impact. Jankovic almost always prepares her forehand with her elbow bent at a right angle.
