Murray's forehand-technically ugly?

[brett701]

But guys look how far his hand goes back behind his leg and torso--not too many of the men if any does this.

That is a good point. That video is pretty amazing. his consistency on forehand and backhand really impress me.

I believe his stiff arm + the way he goes way behind the torso/backleg are the 2 things that make his forehand appear different. I see the same stiffness in his stroke as blake, but i dont believe that blake goes behind the torso/backleg like murray. Great observation.

waste of time

So what if it's ugly, or not ugly? Jeez! It works, it's effective, he's a top player, a contender. And I do not like him -- who cares?
