Musetti on the one-handed backhand: "I wouldn't recommend it to a child starting out"
Over time, fewer and fewer professional players possess a one-handed backhand. This is notably due to the evolution of equipment over the years.
Asked about this by the media outlet SDNA, Lorenzo Musetti stated: "I wouldn't recommend the one-handed backhand to a child starting out, because modern tennis is really very difficult, especially due to the speed of the game and the potential disadvantages on the return.
