I expect the camera work is to make the kid seem better than he is. He's certainly talented, but probably makes a lot of mistakes. Patrick obviously isn't trying too hard.
Hey guys great video so far I'm about 3:40 into the video, the shots are cool, and I definitley appreciate it as a videographer and video editor, but as a tennis viewer the edits are really jarring and distracting. The perspective change is too quick for something of this caliber. It may seem like you're overdoing it with all the angle change. I highly recommend two static shots in the back courts. And then one person with a tele lens on the side lines. It's ideal to change angle inbetween points, but in between each stroke is a bit too much. A tennis game will be interesting to those that enjoy tennis and should therefore not be overcomplicated. I know that the critique can sound harsh, but I do appreciate the effort by the videographer and editor to change up how tennis lessons is viewed online though! So, points for the effort :D
You’re absolutely right. I just skipped ahead to the next section with more watchable editing. People overdo things sometimes and it takes away from the tennis.
Been following him and his brother for a couple of years now and this kid is getting better and better!!! Its great that he has continued his progression!!! Hope his brother is as good!!! Hope they make it to top 10!!!! Long long way 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thanks for another great video. Could I suggest that you please stick with one camera angle during a rally? Switching cameras every time the ball is hit makes it difficult to watch. Leaving the camera on one side of the court makes it easy to watch. I always enjoy your full length videos. Thank you for all your tips.
He has an incredibly potent and beautiful one-handed backhand. Glad that the one-hander is still being taught, developed, and used as a true weapon and not just a placeholder. I’m sure we will be seeing more of him down the road.
@@methylphosphatePOET backhand of Tsitsipas is the worst one handed backhand we saw in the top 10, speak about Thiem/Wawrinka the only two player excpet Murray who can compete against BIG 3, and together this beautifull backhand, the nightmare of Djoko is one handed backhand far away fron normal backhand..
That's what I keep saying: Thank's to the internet. All the Tutorials from various tennis pros. All the Videos, normal speed and slow motion, on every shot.
Merci Patrick pour cette vidéo : personnellement j’ai bien aimé l’originalité du changement de caméra pendant les échanges. Ça surprend un peu au début, mais quand le cerveau comprend et fait le lien entre le coup joué et la trajectoire de la balle visualisée sur la caméra postée à l’opposé c’est cool. Ce gamin joue très bien, je lui souhaite de continuer et d’accéder au plus niveau si c’est ce à quoi il aspire.
I'm 4:31 into the video... It's the IQ for me, the way he picks his shot shows a lot of thought process behind. He is aware that his 11 year old body isn't fully developed and lacks power, and court coverage... Which led him to develop a much more strategic game, the way he picks his shots based on opponent's positioning, the way he uses the lack of power or a slower ball to counter your movement, he makes you move weirdly throughout the court and then finishes you off. And the best part is that he is aware of all of it, which makes me believe that he will continuosly improve. The only point in his career that I could see him struggle is to adjust his game while his body develops and gets more power, which is a problem that all the players face, and still have to worry about all the knowledge and awareness this kid already have. Thank you Patrick for showing us this amazing talent!
it makes a lot sense that young kid with a lack of power to have long loopy swing in wta style. I am thinking perhaps i might have it done wrong to teach my son ATP compact style at 11. He's 12 now and he's got pretty good modern forehand.. but he is kinda struggling with timing and high balls sometimes and i wonder if modern atp style has a little to do with it instead of a long loopy take back... what's your thought coach.
I'm not surprised he is teaching himself. A kid from Japan with a one-handed backhand? That's great to see. Great natural timing talent and creativity. Hope we hear about him in 6 or 7 years.
Amazing. Just curios whats going on with the one hander? I mean hes amazing with it but is it worth it in todays game? And whats the deciding factor at this level to go 1 or 2?
Man I hope one of these young kids still brave enough to learn the OHBH makes it. I think Taylor Dent's son around the same age also has a one-hander. Would love to see it continue (even if in small numbers) at the highest levels of the game.
For the boy’s take back, which goes beyond the line of his body i.e. like how the WTA players (e.g. Naomi Osaka) do it instead of how the ATP players’ take back is entirely on the right side of his body, is it a concern at this age?
The kids good for an 11 year old howeber the jump from 15 when i played nationals and top 8 in state to professional is like a huge ocean time will tell
I can see how the kid developed an almost western grip to deal with rival's high balls. Due to his actual height, every ball may seem high to him, but that will change in the near future. Great technique on both strokes!
naah.. if you have perfected your technique at such a young age, you can focus on learning game strategy and mental development much sooner as well and that'll make huge difference
Superbe vidéo, merci. Petite suggestion : il y a, je trouve, trop de changements de plan durant le match. Ça peut être un effet sympa mais là ça n'est pas agréable. A la place, pourquoi ne pas mettre une caméra un peu plus haute dans l'axe du court ? C'est ce qui retranscrit le mieux les trajectoires et les effets des balles tout en ayant une vue confortable pour le spectateur.
This is what every coach says. They always totally believe they have the next Federer. But theres 2 000 000 coaches in the world and 2 000 000 young prodigy
"The future is not ours to see", as an old song says. The kid looks amazing now, but maybe his interest changes in a few years, he maybe doesn't reach height of 1.75 meters, which is a minimum for a top player in modern tennis. I can see many are delighted with his one-handed backhand (I use it), but it looks like a weakness nowadays. So far so fantastic.
Remarkable skill must be augmented with size, speed, and power to make a dent at the highest levels. If he's destined to add these to his skill and smarts, we may see him excelling on the ATP tour.

I love your content but I have been feeling that your camera person’s angle, movement and skill is just - not easy to continue watching in many of your videos. Again I really appreciate your videos and learn a lot from it but I think if the camera work can get better it would be so fantastic. 🙏
If you’re going to move the camera around(I don’t like it) at least use a gyro stabilizer so it doesn’t look like a magnitude 9 earthquake just hit the coast of Japan and created a massive intercontinental tsunami on the court
All the " PAT THE DOG " advocates will say his forehand backswing in too big! And hopefully his one hander won't be a liability when he turns pro, like Tsitsipas's one hander which gets picked on. Amazing talent by this young player' 👏 👍
Unless Reita has Shohei’s genetics, he will end up like Michael Chang. Michael Chang dominated Pete Sampras in juniors. Then genetics kicked in and Michael Chang simply couldn’t compete. At least he won the French once
