The pain of learning backhand slice…

What remained a mind-boggling problem for me in tennis is my backhand slice.  I still could not execute the thing so well despite hundreds of attempts. I don’t have the confidence and even if I practice a lot against the wall, I still couldn’t execute my backhand slice during games. Poor me! As per the existing and known techniques, slice is created by the racquet head brushing down the back of the ball with the spin creating a lower, flatter trajectory over the net and makes the ball stay low off the bounce. The best example is Tim Henman of UK who uses his backhand slice to approach the net; the spin keeps the ball low forcing his opponents to hit up giving him an easier volley. Venus and Serena Williams as well use the backhand slice as a defensive shot when stretched out wide as it is easier to play on the stretch and again the low bounce will make it more difficult for opponents to attack. Let me go back to the practice hall and do it hundred more times. I’d kill myself if still I’m not able to do it.
