“Novak Djokovic, thank you for giving Kojiro backhand advice,” wrote the father
The Owaki brothers hail from Japan and play some really good tennis at a very young age. While the elder one, Yunosuke, admires Roger Federer, Kojiro is a big Novak Djokovic fan.
What was the valuable advice given by Novak Djokovic to Kojiro?
The Serbian legend gave a piece of important backhand advice to Kojiro that other youngsters can also follow. As most of the fans and experts know, Djoker has the most effective and one of the best backhands in the sport today.
“Kojiro, racket head up in the preparation of the shot. Early rotation with shoulders, with chin over the right shoulder. Transfer the weight from the left (back leg) to the right leg forward but don’t open too early with hips. Let the hands to the work and then follow with the hips,” wrote the 18-time Grand Slam champion in the message.
