Jannik Sinner Shows Off His Accuracy - Target Practice Drills, IW 2023 [4k 60fps, Court Level]

[@toxihavoc]

I dont even know how your court level vids are better than tennis tv. keep up the great work💪

[@12kgpTennis]

Less to do with me than it is Indian Wells being an amazing tournament/venue for tennis fans to see the players up close

[@daraemkar]

Part of it the resolution quality. 12kgp's videos are so clear and tennistv looks bad no matter how many times they claim 1080p.

[@waholoopesorry74]

tennistv is overrated

[@jmasked5082]

Yep it's Indian Wells. The practice courts have gaps in the fence really close to the players.

[@dastanprobg2071]

Tennis tv is so bad, I don't watch it

[@aresuna6683]

rather than target practice, i think its about depth control. and id hate to play against a player who can consistently hit that deep into the court.

[@soysauce10]

This is likely the purpose.

[@Heartracer]

Depth is a target…

Jannik and Carlos have ignited the game with their battles. In all my years of following this ever evolving game, i have never seen two players beat eachother beyond senseless. Incredible pace, power, and feel from both guys. Simply astounding and brutal tennis. 😮

[@markconner5341]

One of few very guys without the high takeback on the two-handed backhanded.

Their games certainly do compliment each other well. Should be a great rivalry for the next decade. Rafa and Novak have had many of battles where they beat each other into oblivion as well.

the stability sinner demonstrates in his strokes is noteworthy. His whole body seems to be perfectly aligned with his weight distributed very evenly; no wonder he is so accurate and consistent.

Sinner is still puting some muscle with time. When he will be 100%, he will be very difficult to beat.

[@ToonInvader]

This feels so good

[@jnkenoyer]

[@newtechi]

Machine. He has to flex so much his legs in each shot. Even being skinny, must have very strong quads and hamstrings

man, i fell in love with this fantastic girl... already had a pretty near serve technique before... one day when we had just met, i went for serve practice. everything went SO smooth. at last i picked two cones and put them on the t and outside line. hitting just THREE first 100% serves, i wildly knocked both cones over on purpose. and thise serves were cracking baby 😁 best tennis moment of my life. couldnt believe it. it felt surreal and out of body. 👍🏻 good times

[@bganjavian]

[@michaelsheedy]

Sinner hits a very heavy ball at you. You can tell by the way Novak reacts to Sinner's ground strokes during a long rally. And while Sinner's serve stays in the 125mph range, he really hits his spots and gets a lot of easy points.

[@kakaak0]

Whats the can on the ground for?

[@CB-mr1ci]

His racquet sounds so good

[@DamaniDanDadar]

Sinner is a modern version of Berdych. Similar body frame, shots, and playing style but Sinner is more aggressive.

which strings does he play

[@12kgpTennis]

Head Hawk Touch

[@thecoach1683]

Really don't appreciate the amount of top spin the players have and the height they are actually hitting over the net. I thought Jannik was a flatter hitter. Tennis broadcasters, take note, a tv angle like this allows the spectator to immerse themselves in the game instead of being a fly on the wall 50 feet up.

[@thejohnnytapia123]

he has one of the heaviest spin strokes on hour (high rpm on both forehand and backhand)

[@thecoach1683]

@@thejohnnytapia123 Very strong topspin to bring a loopy ball like that back down with lots of pace too. Really can't respect this element of his game from a camera so high in the air. Many people I know who only have watched tennis and not played think it's easy, because the players look like pong paddles moving back and forth. You don't see the height and spin dimension that these players also manipulate.

[@Jack-lw5kh]

This is certainly true, but the higher angle allows for greater appreciation of point construction and the more cerebral aspects of tennis imo. Would be cool if they could switch it up more mid point to get a sense of the biomechanics that go into hitting the ball as well as these guys do!

Waiting for Mouratoglou to teach Sinner how to slice *through* the ball, so that his slices float and give the opponent more time and less spin to work with, like Rune's.

[@vincentyou266]

Huh? Correct me if I’m wrong but I thought the heavier the spin and less time you give your opponent the better. Is mouratoglou’s teaching sinner this technique supposed to be helpful? If so, can you explain how? Genuinely confused. LOL.

@@andreasmissiroli6915 Perhaps I'm overstating the point but there are or have been promotional videos where Mouratoglou is teaching Rune how to slice.

Roger rarely hit the ball heavily in his practice sessions.

[@userdjee834]

Old fast and responsive balls are not in use any more (Head/Penn Tour) since 2020. New balls are hard, super controlled and require slugging non stop (Head/Penn Tour XT/XD). So those wonderful Federer plays from the highlight reels, where those balls were used (IW, Basel, Paris, ATP Finals) are history..at least in men's tennis, women still play with them.
