backhand drive

a stroke in racket sports like badminton and tennis where the player hits the ball on their non-dominant side with a forward swing motion

A backhand drive is a shot used in racquet sports, such as tennis, badminton, and squash, where the player hits the ball or shuttlecock with the non-dominant side of their body. The player swings the racquet with a firm grip, keeping the racquet face slightly angled forward, and uses the power of the backhand to send the ball or shuttlecock quickly and accurately across the court. The backhand drive is typically used for fast returns, allowing the player to keep the ball in play while maintaining control. It requires good technique and timing to execute effectively.
