If Justine Henin has the best backhand in women tennis today, who has the best forehand in women tennis today?

Question

If Justine Henin has the best backhand in women tennis today, who has the best forehand in women tennis today?

Answer 1

I don't think she has the best backhand - for me that would be one of the Williams' sisters.

Answer 2

Kuznetsova

Answer 3

yes, Justine has the powerful backhand

while the best forehand in women tennis was Ana ivanovic, she's so powerful....

Answer 4

I'd say Sharapova.

Her forehand motion is different from that of the other players.When finishing the shot she raises her raquet high, a liitle above her head instead of puutting it on her right shoulder.Probably that's the secret of that poooooooooowerful and so accurate forehand of hers.

Answer 5

I agree that Justine has the best backhand in women's tennis(that's because I love one handers) but surprisingly I think Sania Mirza has one of the best forehands in the game. I know I'm probably going to get some nasty comments but she does have one of the best forehands in my opinion. I also think Serena Williams and Lindsey Davenport have amazing forehands.

On a side note I would be really curious to see what Sharapova's strokes would have looked like had she not been forced to play right handed.

Answer 6

ivanovic or sharapova

Answer 7

Maria Sharapova

Answer 8

maria

Answer 9

Yes the best one handed backhand goes to Justine. The best two handed back hand and most accurate is actually Jelena Jankovic. The best forehand today is Justine Henein followed by Ana Ivanovic and then  it's SVetlana Kuznetsova

Answer 10

both maria and serena has the best forehand and backhand in women tennis today...

Answer 11

Justine, with no doubt has the best one handed back hand( which I  personally prefer and are successful with, as a dude) in the womens game, but overall, I would have to say, it is Serena Williams,( who has shown in interviews, commercials how she approaches her backhand stroke, and is often asked by commentators about it),  followed by Sharapova and Ivanovic. The forehand we all know the strength, power The Williams Sisters possess, especially Serena,so that is a given, but I would also have to say Davenport. She hits those forehands with such power, pace, velocity, that when she is on, its hard for her opponents to retrieve. Then you also have Dementieva. She is often over looked because of her lack of serve, but she hits some mean looking groundstrokes, and also Ivanovic.

Answer 12

I would go with Serena Williams as it has the most power and used to be the most accurate. It won her serveal grand slams and imo is the best.

Answer 13

I don't Justine Henin does not have the best backhand in women's tennis, I think Justine Henin has the best ONE-HANDED backhand in women's tennis. But I think The Williams or Maria Sharapova has the best backhand.

The best forehand, I'd say The Williams or Lindsay Davenport. Ana Ivanovic has a great forehand as well.

Answer 14

Ana Ivanovic. Good anticipation, power and placement

Answer 15

Like Angie said, Justine has the best one-handed backhand  in women's tennis but it is Maria Sharapova who has the best two-handed backhand in women's tennis.

The best forehand would be Ana Ivanovic's, it's just terrific.
