Exactly. I don't like this guy, and I don't like most "professional" tennis coaches. The way I was taught tennis was very natural. I was very lucky to have my highschool coach, he showed us what he thought was best for us, and allowed flexibility for the individual. The growth progression was really steady as well, we didn't start out with fully formed strokes like most tennis coaches enforce, we learnt what was best for us and what worked and why.

@YyJoBb Obviously that's completely your choice (and as a relatively tall person I can't sympathise so well) but I would suggest you focus on playing in the way that best suits your body type rather than changing your body. eg. Tall people can struggle with lateral movement + fast direction changes and low balls. Agassi never had to worry about loopy topspin because he stepped in and took the ball straight off the bounce which became his greatest asset. Good luck with whatever you choose

let's assume there are 5% of kids playing tennis from rich families who can afford Nick tennis school, and I do believe there are good coaches and equipment there, but in school their kids can only play with that 5% of kids most of the time, and here I'm not saying rich people cannot be athletic, talented or skilful. What I'm saying is that the tuition fee you paid for probably eliminate the chance you meet other 95% of the tennis population and if you don't meet enough good opponents at a young age, how can you have the needs or willings to develop all the weapons to become no.1?

He lost to a hard-hitting, strong hardcourt player in Marin Cilic. He's 19, he has good weapons, he is improving with every match he plays on the pro tour, and despite his whiney attitude on court, he has a better mentality than Djokovic a few years ago, Fernando Gonzalez (at any point in his angry career), or any countless pros that have started out bitching and ended up winning slams. Don't expect a US Open title when he's getting his feet wet. I can see a promising top 20 future for him.
