Justine probably has the best backhand in the women's game.. It's a wonderful sight when it is full flow.. :ok:

Extract from Wikipedia

Backhand

The backhand can be executed with either one or both hands. For most of the 20th Century it was performed with one hand, using either an Eastern or Continental grip. The Continental grip for the backhand is the same as that used for the Continental forehand. For the Eastern backhand, the racquet is rotated slightly in the opposite direction from which it is rotated to form the grip of the Eastern forehand. In modern tennis, there are a few professional players who use a Western one-hand backhand. This shot is held in a similar manner to the Western forehand, and has more spin potiential than the traditional Eastern one-hander. This shot is very difficult to master, but is used by a few pros, like Gustavo Kuerten among the men and Justine Henin-Hardenne among the women.

But of course :halo:

ANY DOUBTS??????????? :bow: :bow: :bow: :bow: :bow: :bow:

Yeah i agree! Justine Has the best one-handed backhand in the womens game, closely followd by Amelie!

But as a whole i think Venus and Serena's Backhands are better in full flow!
