Really admire your fight and composure throughout the match and letting us in on your follow up analysis with your coach. Rooting for you to succeed and keep up the great attitude.

@DNA2000-8bit 2 года назад

No cap, you were actually the better hitter with more game and more upside. Dude just went jedi mode in the 2nd set and did crafty stuff. This is one of those guys who you'll probably never lose to again if you meet him. You were firing. No shame on this one at all.

@tennisbrothers 2 года назад

haha thanks rob, love that "Jedi Mode" 😂👍

@jonepoint3658 2 года назад

I disagree (about the never losing to him again).Tennis is not about who‘s the cleaner hitter. Sometimes you have to dig deep and just find a way to win, doesn‘t matter how and he showed “more tools“.

@skeley1167 2 года назад

@@jonepoint3658 yeah that makes sense but i think he means his game is not that big and he doesnt have serious weapons so the next time round it will be much easier to face him because his game is easier to figure out.

@milesblack1830 2 года назад

Maybe cos he mainly showed points he dominated

@JH-Wood 2 года назад

That's a tough loss - you had this guy's number and were outhitting him. There were some huge serves from you too, great to see that serve training is paying off.

@tennisbrothers 2 года назад

Much appreciated

@dumitch 2 года назад

Here's my 2 cents worth (I'm a coach in Canada). I feel your biggest problem in your game is your return. In your highlights most of your returns were falling short (especially on your FH side). In this match, your opponents serve wasn't very strong and he served a lot of serves to your FH. If you would have consistently returned with better depth you would have won that match. In order to get that ATP point, your return has to be as good as your serve. You have a great game overall, but being able to get control of the point from the return side is crucial in these close matches. Keep up the hard work!!!

@justusbeweel1109 2 года назад

+1. the opponent had a very weird grip on his serve, which prevented him from hitting flat serves. You should have won that serve- return dynamic, since your serve was way better than your opponents .

@tennisbrothers 2 года назад

@Teckers3773 2 года назад

Agree, I just felt on occasions the ball was dropping a little short. You were hitting just over the serving tee a little often.

@CodySharp82 2 года назад

This was a another heartbreaker, these 10 point third sets are a nightmare, especially against a guy that likely wouldn't have been able to get another full set against you. Thanks for sharing, just keep pushing forward and the wins will come.

@joshuakorea 2 года назад

I know it's tough but you have to not be afraid of hitting the ball with pace even under pressure. Once you start doing that, you'll crush everyone. For example, in the first tiebreak, I could tell you were a little tight and you weren't hitting the ball as hard as you were and your opponent took advantage of that. Don't let the pressure not let you play your best. Wishing you best of luck going forward.

@benno6723 2 года назад

Something that your coach and you didn’t mention was that at points you were to eager to come to the net when the approach shot wasn’t the best

@hsy2448 2 года назад

Def, watching the highlights, a lot of the points he lost were getting passed, the opponent was winning a lot of his net points which I think was the eventual difference in victory/defeat.

@OldHeadTrivia 2 года назад

I agree when you get close to winning you seem to tighten up. Many of your shots started dropping well inside the service line. Obviously, you don’t want to become reckless, but do your best to maintain aggressiveness in points that really matter. I know it’s extremely difficult. Not trying to be critical, just want to see you succeed. Keep up the good work.

@MPTennis 2 года назад

Thanks for sharing. You have all the tools Felix and I think you and your coach are exactly right in saying you need to figure out what your opponent is doing and find ways to use your strengths against their struggle areas on that day. What I have noticed from a lot of videos, not many players can hang with you on the FH side. I would find ways to get into that position more often in your matches and keep trying to come forward. Maybe throw in a bit more shape on both wings to give you some depth on your rally balls. Great job and keep going.

@Back2Zack 2 года назад

I like what he said there at the end. Whenever i do pay more attention to what my opponent is doing, I focus less on my performance. Which actually clears my head. Ive noticed I have to generalize it more tho or i start expecting a certain ball and if i dont get it i mess up

@nava8167 2 года назад

This same thing happened to me I was playing matches and all I was doing was observing my opponent what he was doing well and what he wasn't, I had a 9 match win streak. I started to get overconfident and stopped paying attention to my opponent, and more on my shots. I lost 2 matches that day that I should have easily won.

good match lad, solid performance overall - your opponent came out with some clutch shots in tight moments late in the match. Don’t forget you play with an added pressure your opponent’s don’t play with, which is to perform in front of 59,000 people every match (most pros dont even have this pressure)! I think its something you’ll get used to over time and will actually end up making you an even better player! Best of luck to ya mate💪🏽

@AeiKei 2 года назад

When it comes to tie-breaks, good serves and returns are the key, improving your serve will get you "free points" and make it easier to concentrate more on the returns when your opponent serves. Anyways, you are getting there, just be focused and mentally strong

@DNA2000-8bit 2 года назад

One tip, IMHO, if you're going to step around the backhand side to hit a short forehand _ end it. Right there, hit or miss. If you're gonna step around to hit the FH then flatten that baby out and end the point win or lose. Stepping around just to rope a tight topspin is high percentage, but it really just lets him back in the point after he hit short. Don't give up court geometry once you gain it.

@tennisbrothers 2 года назад

thank you for the advice!

@uxcambridge 2 года назад

Shame almost there! you’ll win the next one for sure so many positive from the video your backhand was awesome! What helps me on the return get it up the middle neutralise the point, so that you don’t give angle then drag him out wide. In the tie break maybe you volleyed a couple of time when you shouldn’t of don’t, I always do that as well super hard in the moment. I thought he rolled in a couple of serves to get the volley, this is always something worth considering. Change the pace hit a heavy topspin 1st serve and plan to come in. Anyway your miles better than me, put in the hard work and you’ll get the results!

@Cameron-ue7lu 2 года назад

Footwork Felix, footwork. Recovering from each shot, wider, lower stance, bigger split step, coming off the best foot to make the next point. Fitness and footwork is a key differentiator and the two go hand in hand. Measure your calves now and they should be at least one inch wider by the end of the season. Good luck man, and I love your serves and shots, sweet power transfer.

@@tennisbrothers If you get a chance, do check out Federer's workout drills on RU-vid when he was about 16 training at Swiss national academy, focusing on balance, strength, stamina and pace. Another thought for your Felix. The top tennis players bawl their eyes out when they lose. You are such a nice guy. Unleash your inner killing instinct and get upset when you lose. You were far better than your welsh opponent. T-CUP Think correctly under pressure, be Ice and Fire.

@apoorvyadav4502 2 года назад

Hey man, great match , amazing effort. One small observation from my side: your net game is good. Don't be in a hurry to rush to the net in order to surprise or take away time from your opponent. I feel one should go to finish at the net when the return shot strength of your opponent is around 65% or less. Its good to take risk's and take the plunge but try to analyse the probability of the risk going towards your side. There were many balls which went straight into your opponent's hands yet you went to the net. As for the good ones I don't think I need to mention those as they were good volleys! Anyway all the best for the next tournament bud.

Great match,do you know if any of these guys have or are going to try it at the Futures?

@GuilhermeGodoipiano 2 года назад

Hi Felix, I admire your channel and hope you achieve your goals. I was wondering what your psychological preparation is like. Obviously you could have won that match but, like some other comments suggest, you didn’t perform well under pressure. I agree with your coach as to the quick decision-making process, and I wonder if that wasn’t a mental preparation issue, which inevitably affects your shot selection. Of course it’s easy for me to say, I’m just watching you from my phone in another country! Ha! All the best on your journey!

@gregan78 2 года назад

Thought it was gonna be a 6-0 6-0 after first few points. I'm no expert but with your cleaner hitting, power and athleticism I thought you could have dominated points by moving him more, and going for lines. Some opportunities where you just hit back to the middle near him where I think top players would kill the point or at least set up the point by putting him on the back foot scrambling. Great potential though.
