Responses

Serve

Backhand

Forehand

Ground stroke

Typically, the "Backhand" swing is generally considered to be weaker than the forehand for most players. This is because the backhand often uses fewer and smaller muscle groups than the forehand and can be more technically challenging to master. However, this is not a rule, as some players have very strong backhands and may even consider it their dominant stroke.
