Best Hot Shots of 2017: No. 1, Diego's behind-the-back win
The shot of the year comes from the Argentinian at Paris.
As the year draws to close, Baseline remembers the shots that showed off players skills, tenacity, and luck all through the season. From backhands to volleys to two-minute rallies, these are the best hot shots of 2017.
See No. 2 here.
The behind-the-back passing shot seems to be a favorite in 2017. Many player's, including previous entries of this countdown, have played fantastic ones. Possibly the best one comes from the Argentinian Diego Schwartzman who was taking on John Isner at the Paris Masters.
Isner hit a forehand behind Schwartzman, but that didn't stop the 25-year-old from leaping and flicking a passing shot crosscourt.
