I love your serve. Looks so efficient. Not sure if it's on purpose or not, but it didn't look like you were doing a split step in general, and on net points especially. It looked like you were getting caught flat footed a lot. I think it would push your net game to another level if you incorporated that. Just to be clear though, your movement is already unreal. Here's a video of Ferrer at the net. It shows how quickly it lets him push off and react to the ball. kzbin.info/www/bejne/q2Pbcn5vpZebf68 I'm definitely not an expert though, so if you're not doing it on purpose, just ignore me.

He defeated Lorenzo Sison, who has been terrorising the PTPA tournaments (smile) this entire summer. That was a fun match to watch, and the first time I have seen anyone out play Lorenzo!

Nice playing man! Very enjoyable to watch, excellent camera angle and video quality! It seems your groundstrokes are very consistent and have good placement (esp with passing shots) but they don't have a lot of penetration due to low wrist action/racket head speed. Maybe something to work on. I imagine it will be hard to rely on speed+defense+chip'n'charge against 5.0+.

Great to see you back on the court (though I’m quite certain you’ve been on them quite often this summer). Fun match to watch with some pretty good points played on both sides. Great footwork and and speed from both of you. Lose and learn. Win and grin. Thanks for the show👍🏻
@t14dann185 жыл бұрын
These are so much fun to watch. the pros can hit winners from anywhere on the court, so it's nice to watch someone closer to my level and learn tactics that I could actually apply. Both of you have nice (albeit very different) games!
@thomasmedeiros57225 жыл бұрын
Daniel Tobben Even we amateur players can learn tactics by watching the pros you just have to know what to look for when watching a professional tennis match. I have been fortunate to have attended many pro tournaments since the 1970’s. Watching Rod Laver play Ken Rosewall I learned change and vary spins. Laver hit with top or slice on his backhand with the same preparation you did not know if was going to hit a topspin,slice or a drop shot. They both moved into the net on balls hit short. Watching Connors play McEnroe was like going to tennis camp. They both set up points and closed into the net. They both served with lots of spin and kick not just flat serves. Connors could dig shots out of the corner an hit sky high lobs to gain recovery time. Sure he hit low percentage winners but he played the game an set score and was always ahead when he took a high risk shot. I have been teaching and coaching for a long time and always use the pros as examples to explain strategy and tactics. Whenever I hit with someone or watch anyone play I automatically assess their strengths, liabilities and consider tactics or strategy that would be helpful in coaching them or playing against them. So when you watch Professional tennis try to look beyond the aces and winners. Have fun on the court 🎾🎾

Another great video and match! I know some (many) people has suggested you to flaten your forehand or work on your service. I am not going to mention anything about them (I think your top spin forehand is very good for clay anyway). But in my opinion there is something that you could improve and it is easier to implement it because you only need to make some small corrections, I am talking about the slice. I suggest you watch some videos from Dimitrov, Federer or Feliciano, and pay atention and compare their body position against yours (you are too much in front of the ball, they are more sided), so your body position doesn´t allow you to start the movement from behind. They start the movement behind them and finish the movement ahead, also because they are sided they can rotate the body and impulse the body with the legs, as a result the shot is heavier and deeper...check it out. A fast, deep and low slice is an amazing weapon that could be of great help specially to your kind of game. My two cents.

Good god man. Out of all the 5.0 player videos on KZbin, Andrew is probably the very best at not opening up the court against himself. He’s putting the ball in the perfect spot almost 9/10 times and never makes unforced errors. Hardly the wrong shot selection too. This is evidenced by Observing who’s doing the most work/running on court. Dillon is running Atleast triple the amount in rallies cause he’s usually going up the line and opening up court against himself and then Andrew just rolls it into the open court with that magnificent topspin fh!

l An Lol just charge up to the net and get a good shot off the drop shot. If you get there fast enough the court’s wide open to hit to. As for at the net, you gotta anticipate where they’ll volley, track it down, and hit a shot to the open court, or a really powerful shot at their body. It’s easier said than done lol
@matthardesty93635 жыл бұрын
Don't get caught 8 ft behind the baseline. And don't hit short balls that sit up high. Andrew kept returning them because his opponent hit bad volleys. Andrew had to move minimally and had tons of time to pass him. Best way to deal with a drop shot is don't put yourself in a situation where you cant deal with one and make the other person move off your shot if you get there. You aren't going to be hitting a winner off of it unless its bad. But you will have alot of angle and court to hit to its executing that is difficult for alot of players.

Just a coaching idea do you go back and watch your game film like football coaches do to see what can be improved. In the amount of video that I just watched I saw Dillon taking advantage of short balls landing in or just outside the service box. That would also tell me that You would need to hit with more consistent depth and also get to the net on his short shots. I do understand that players tend to want to stay in their comfort zone but at some point you have to work in new tactics in practice and then in matches so you can advance to the next level.
