Murray is a mix of high tennis iq and fighting spirit, even after all injuries, enjoy this man so much

[@alisinan3480]

Agreed

[@Forever20young]

I don’t enjoy him, at all. Nope, NEVER❕🙄

[@anseinueseima408]

@@Forever20young you must have some opinions on him then, 'cause you act like a kid and those adults who dont enjoy a player wont say it aloud as if it makes them look cool🤡👺

[@darsh7164]

yeah and the return position trick works especially against zverev, so very smart decision

[@enzocouture3614]

This video shows how varied tennis can be and how mentally taxing of a sport it becomes compared to most other sports in my opinion. With the different serves, return positions, no-looks, deception, mental games, and trick shows that come about from normal play and how rhythmic the game is, these seriously throw a wrench into the gears and messes with you. Everyone has a way of playing they play and way that the game unfolds so these games and tricks is something for everyone to see and learn from

[@ajwasp3642]

Tennis is 50% physical, and 50% mental. It's athletic chess. At the top level, all these guys can hit the same shots. Like chess, you have to outthink your opponent. Reading your opponent's body language is key, therefore your opponent, not only has to hit a good shot, they have to fake you out. Reminds of the book, Winning Ugly, by Brad Gilbert.

[@The_Jazziest_Coffee]

@@ajwasp3642 absolute facts every sports definitely requires physicality, skills and technique, no doubt about that. but in a sport (especially in singles) where you have a large space of area to cover with very little time to react to, tennis is such a mental sport

[@asyrafnukman1991]

👍👍

[@lrlrlr22]

4:55 I guess this is what differentiates them from the NexGen players. They're always right there fighting and turning things around until the very last second of the match with this "Never give up until your opponent's match point turns into your own" attitude. ✨

[@brandonm8901]

SABR was iconic. I want to see other players try it even more now that we have so many standing metres behind the baseline on returns

[@nascentnaga]

Federer has the hands, its difficult to execute for most people

[@Steevy84]

After a few lobs, he stopped this strategy vs Djokovic at USO.

[@nascentnaga]

@@Steevy84 he revealed tactics too early in Cincy and paid the price at the USO

[@Abhi-wh3ik]

Bro, he got passed left, right and center by Novak at USO to the point he himself never tried it again.😅

[@brandonm8901]

@@Abhi-wh3ik I'm not saying people should do it as a standard return, just throw one in occasionally. Like a serve and volley these days

[@th8257]

What Murray did to Zverev used to be pretty common on the women's tour back in the 90s. Sabatini, Capriati, Seles and Navratilova all used to move in and try and threaten their opponent's serve like that. Obviously much harder to do that on the men's tour where serves are bigger.

[@Abhi-wh3ik]

Haha, didn't know Berdych had that side to himself.😂 If only he showed it during big matches.. I'm sure Rafa wasn't happy during that handshake.

[@tennisshorts]

So much respect for Murray 💥

[@maciejgudel2939]

A fantastic performance by Murray, this movie shows a high mix of mental and psychic game. And very high IQ of all players.

[@aruna-ty6jc]

I'm big fan of ur mental strength, u r true inspiration for common people like us

[@GD_money]

In all fairness Gael was just trying something different!

[@king0vdarkness]

1:46 I do appreciate murray now, but this used to piss me off. Fist bumping after an opponents error.

[@BrotherTree1]

That Korda lob was probably going out but Novak still wanted to give himself some work by going for the smash winner to save the championship point. That is risky but ballsy stuff.

[@cadenblock7844]

What happened to the sabr at the us open????🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@CkvEditz]

The underarm serve is magic🪄

[@ammoniumammonide]

Wow genius play by murray

[@Alan-gt5lr]

Taking advantage of Zverev's uncertainty is genius but in my opinion a little not cool

[@ajeetp470]

He knows Sascha second serve is joke

[@21daysfromnow]

@@Alan-gt5lr wdym not cool😂 he risked by coming into the court to return, how many players are willing to risk doing that, hence he got rewarded

[@GdNYa]

@@Alan-gt5lr Zverev known for having bad second serves so why not abuse it by applying even more pressure ?

[@Alan-gt5lr]

It's 100% smart just not cool in the way that some people only play to the backhand.

[@GNFALLEN]

Awesome

[@venkateshkulkarni2227]

Mind games need not necessarily involve tennis shots. It could be something as simple as slowing down the pace of the match by taking more time in between points.

[@Grp79841]

I love to Watch Kygrios play he is GOAT🐐 of tennis in case of entertain people

[@initialise21]

The GOAT of tennis, Novak Djokovic.

[@ccadayon]

I wish the video producer was a Brit, because "cheeky" is the best way to describe these vs. "mind games." Americans don't really have an equivalent word. Love the vids overall!

[@Malloch_Hui]

would it be legal to fake an under arm serve to bait the opponent forward then smash it really fast?

[@ultimpower9350]

why not

[@awateilrahc]

Murray does this at this level and everyone praises him yet you watch college players do the same thing and everyone calls it disrespectful

[@hanneswolters3933]

Not quite sure what Djokovic is doing in this video from Adelaide, only thing might be faking injury, is that what u wanna show @tennistv?

[@quentinharoche9564]

This video could also be called : "how to be a an asshole on a tennis court"

[@siddhukopparapo8145]

0:30 that's why he's never winning a slam

[@minhtrinh5981]

Then SABR was destroyed in the final of US 2015. Learn from failures!

[@hansoloheisenberg8535]

Salty nadal haahahaah

[@anustart-loveeachother7680]

To be fair some of these are just blatant poor sportsmanship in my opinion. Might qualify as mind games as well as it is done primarily to get into their opponents head, but it’s certainly not the way most sportsman would want to win matches, even though they aren’t illegal I’m really not a fan of some of them

[@707ladytee]

I was thinking the same thing! Straight up gamesmanship the majority of these clips, smh. Not a fan, either!

[@elisecode2212]

yeah i lost respect for medvedev with that df celebration

[@justiceisanillusion5602]

Fake and bake

[@minecraftfortnitetutorial8424]

First

[@zetristan4525]

If Kyrgios really did start the fake, but then didn't serve, it should count as a fault. Otherwise, he can have his opponents running forward and walking back for restarts all day.

[@Abhi-wh3ik]

What was the point of putting Djokovic here? All he did was comeback from a set and MP down instead of using any tricks? Other than getting his picture on thumbnail with that title considering the current chatter around his hamstring injury at AO? These are the type of snarky attempts, the smear he's been dealing with all his career since he burst into the scene from a not so popular country, and didn't roll over for 2 media darlings.

[@DrMic2112]

It was put in not bc of a specific match or strategy, but bc Djokovic was talking during the interview how the more he wins, it gets in players heads that he can always come back. It gives him that mental edge, which is so important in tennis. Thus, it seems to fit within the overall content of the video: getting into the head of your opponents to have that slight edge.

[@Abhi-wh3ik]

@@DrMic2112 He said that AFTER the match, though. So, wouldn't it be more suitable to highlight this for his next match? But, he said that after the final, and mind games are only useful while talking about upcoming matches- not after winning them. That's why it's bizarre to put him on thumbnail when some journos are accusing him of faking leg injury.
