Now - Roger and Justine.

Richard Gasquet. He has the most beautiful one handed backhand I have ever seen. It is by far the best part of his game as well. His backhand is even better than Federer's. Federer tends to have trouble controlling his backhand but Gasquet's is always spot on. It looks completely effortless.

some of the answers were extremely stupid, because they listed people who have two-handed backhands!
Simple answers, Roger Federer and Henin-Hardenne. however Mikhail Youhzny is catching up to federer's backhand.

Federer for the men and Henin-Hardenne for the women - her backhand is just beautiful to watch.

Federer, Robredo, Haas, Justine. If Pete Sampras had any backhand to speak of, he would have won 70 grand slam singles titles.
