The Western grip is dominating more in modern tennis — but is it really the best option for every player?

Prodigy Maker Tennis Show EP 103

In this video, I break down when the Western grip helps, when it hurts, and whether you should consider changing your forehand grip.

You’ll learn:

• The pros and cons of Western grips

• When a Semi-Western or Eastern grip might be better

• How grip choice affects consistency, spin, and injury risk

I’ve coached hundreds of high-performance players, and the right grip can completely change your control, power, and long-term development.
