These players are deceptive. You think you are doing well since he is not crushing you with 40 winners but suddenly it's the end of the first set and your legs stop working and he is still getting every ball back at you

@flycanfly Год назад

We call it stalemate

@Jayznuvo Год назад

The opponent moved way less than Felix in the rallies and mostly stay defensive at the mid court. While our guy, even hitting that well still got pushed around so hard with variations. A strategic moves from him for us to learn!

@alastairtheduke Год назад

Some positives, you started off the blocks really well as opposed to going down early like you mentioned. And the quality of your shots was really good.

@smth4119 Год назад

Hi, nice match, you could have won much more points by going for volley more often when he was on defense. When you hit some good balls you let him recover instead of going for volley :)

@shruk4 Год назад

That is normal on clay tho. The problem is since the courts are slow for a good player its pretty easy to hit good passing shots.

@ST-ek6lf Год назад

The first point where Felix went back footed on bad drop shots is the clear example of bad decision.

@notyourpgainstructor5139 Год назад

@@shruk4 watch the match again, plenty of shots that he could have moved in on

@danielurriola Год назад

Japanese players tend to be very good returners (Nishioka, Taro Daniel, Nishikori). They compensate lack of size with reflexes and endurance. Félix, your fitness has improved a lot. The sessions at Patrick's academy were worthy. Regards from Panamá 🇵🇦.

@solidink267 Год назад

Great job Felix, tough game mentally. My opinion is your net game is good when you hit a strong shot. D on’t give him the change to reset the point. Go and watch a few Federer clay court matches. The start shows that you can beat these calibre players. Goodluck and keep up the great videos.

@danieltowers9328 Год назад

Yes thats exactly what he should do, play like Federer 🤣 I cant believe Felix hadnt thought of that

@LongArmsShortTorse Год назад

What an incredible match. You're ground strokes are so powerful and deep in the court and the fact that you took him to 90 minutes in the first set goes to show that you are on the level of that fella. That was very impressive and I'm looking forward to seeing how your strategy changes over the foreseeable years.

@dbylan Год назад

Great Video! It would be cool to see more variety in the music used to change up the vibe. The "hype" songs work well during the matches. But during some of the more relaxing segments like meals and recovery, lofi and other relaxing music would change up the tone well. Different songs with varying tempos and tones would offer more variety to the videos. It would also make each video a little bit fresh instead of using the same tracks for every video.

@mariusschmidt9252 Год назад

Really high quality match, you were both very solid from the baseline. I really liked your ability to mix it up at the net. I think you could've been successful in mixing in a couple dropshots. Something for the future might be to be even better in your serve +1, as this might allow for easier service games. Overall really tough match and a step in the right direction for your level despite the loss. Hope you do well in the following weeks, keep grinding!!!

@harshith3211 Год назад

According to me, your fitness levels are amazing compared to previous matches. You are my inspiration.🔥

@vladimirgetselevich4704 Год назад

Felix, you looked more confident in this match, believing that you can win it, which is great! Two things which were seemingly missing on your game: 1. Dropshots. Take a look at the Alcaraz game. This would be definitely a deal breaker at this type of matches since you would be making him come to the net in your terms. 2. It often seems that you hit great shot in the corner but then you don't follow it to the net and then he has all the time to hit neutralizing shot.

@federicotown8052 Год назад

Imho, best (clay-tennis) level I have seen you play on clay in the years after I noticed the first vid. Keep it up!!

@CountBrass Год назад

If you're looking for any tips, from a veteran player (55 now): --You play way too much at the same pace. You should vary your pace significantly. --Same with spins. --Use height and pace together more. A deep, high dead ball to either corner will elicit errors. --To quote McEnore, never give the opponent the same ball twice in a row. --Play a more all-court game. Serve and volley more. --Set traps. Bring people in on purpose, in an awkward way, for easy passes and lobs. You didn't lose because you were worse. You lost because you played his game. Love your videos. Very kind of you to share this journey you're on with everyone.

@conanthecribber Год назад

Well done Felix. Last year you wouldn't have lasted so long against this guy because your backhands were often too short. So be proud that you've worked on that and got that chink out of your armour. I think the next thing you need to work on is angles. Setting up the point by getting your opponent out of court. Yes, this guy moved well, but he was almost never outside the tramlines. You're not setting up your forehand into space by dragging him out wide to his backhand. Still, overall a very positive development and am enjoying the videos immensely.

@dirt_mcgirk Год назад

Clay is a slower surface. Rafael is king of this court because he wears down his opponents and excels at hitting winners from what looks like lower margin shots. Great effort and stay proud! You got this

@marijnnoorlander4613 Год назад

Well played! Your first ATP win will come soon for sure! Where is that hoodie with the tennis ball from?

@bigrobsydney Год назад

Hey Felix, One thing Ash Barty was so good at, was using the short wide slice to get opponents out of position. They then had to choose to either come to the net, or retreat to baseline. Your next shot could be something that puts pressure on them. Another thing; as you say, your opponent wasn't huge. Maybe you could combine a few drop shots with lobs or passing shots. This would finish points early, and help reduce the physicality aspect of the match. I know Alcaraz is using the drop shot a lot, though to be fair this is usually after battering his opponent with a 100mph forehand to push them back and open the space.

@JAM-fm8lt Год назад

Alcarez doesn't need to. His opponents are standing few hundred kilometers behind baseline so its impossible to get to his drop shots from so far behind baseline.

@Hugogarccia_ Год назад

OMG! He is si consistency. How can you win a type of payer like this ??

@workoutplaylists6420 Год назад

You need to have a really good first and second serve. If you look at the Top 10, even Top 50-100 players, they all have serves that will win many more free points than these guys (even on clay). A good example is Stan the Man; he rarely plays his very best in matches but gets bailed out with amazing serves.

@georgebebeselea1291 Год назад

Imo you have to have better strokes to hit through them

@georgebebeselea1291 Год назад

imagine tsitsipas vs baez last week, he was much more powerfull even if baez returned better and caught most of the points

@roter13 Год назад

@Fitness4London Год назад

You made so many awesome shots Felix - fantastic job. You were up against a grinding terminator with iron discipline.

@trevorphilip9728 Год назад

Some decent points in there. When you took the initiative you basically won the point. You need to keep up that one two punch from the serve to that first forehand. Don’t just massage that first ball on your forehand, especially if it’s around mid court and can get your body into it. Futures players for the most part are all just really solid. To progress to the next level you need to have something that sets you apart from the rest. Go for those big forehands, even if you miss. By doing so you set the precedent that if you get balls like that, they will be punished. Which will potentially make your opponent overplay and have them produce errors. I’m not saying don’t rally, you need to be able to. But you need to identify those easier balls and do damage with them. If you don’t you’ll be playing into their comfort zone.

@kickincatsfishing Год назад

Idk if you want it but some advice is that you should work on developing a weapon like a big serve or forehand when playing these level players not having a weapon will hurt you during a matcn

@VrSword Год назад

Nishioka had some great wins recently and we all remember Nishikori taking out Novak at the USO. You should absolutely be pleased with how you played.

@grantdelmege2724 Год назад

Man these futures tournaments are savage. It's so hard to just pick up 1 ATP point let alone more. But you played well Felix and the first set was so close. I think you just needed to be a bit more offensive and perhaps take the ball on more but it's so easy for me to say from a comfy couch as I know it's hard to do consistently when on the match court. Your level is there to compete with these guys you just need some momentum and a bit of luck in order to get that point. Goodluck for your next event👍

@the_flipside Год назад

Great video as always Felix, to echo some previous comments I do miss the sense of suspense in older videos when it was less apparent who would win the match. Perhaps some of the more revealing comments could be left to the end of the video. Keep it up though, I love your content!

@luigenius5556 Год назад

Well well done Felix, this is what we want to see

@chamonix54 Год назад

Felix, this is the best I've seen you play. Congrats! Great video btw. I thought your baseline game was extremely impressive, and in the second set your agression in conjunction with consistency from the baseline was amazing. I think you have room to improve your return of serve (you're too conservative) and your first serves (can you aim for corners better?). Keep the videos coming!

@knotwilg3596 Год назад

Even though you lost, this is the first time I believe you are going to win ATP points, not so much of this particular performance but because of the consistency in your path. You are gaining more and more experience against different types of players and trying out which side of the balance you need, consistency or aggressiveness. In due time this is going to pay dividends. In this match you showed the consistency in set 1. In set 2 you went for more aggressiveness. The fact that you can make this choice means you are competing at the pro level.

@jzifyable Год назад

Lots of progress, looking better and better, close match against high quality opponent.

@williamc4221 Год назад

Work the point a bit, then flatten out your forehands when his shots sit up and charge the net. You worked the point beautifully, but then played your finishing shots with too much spin and hestitated to approach. That turned the match into too much of a marathon. Your Selective serve and volleying worked well too. Good try overall. You'll find the right balance soon.

@marc-andregauthier5139 Год назад

Definitely one of the best matches I've seen you played. Congrats! But bro...if you're gonna come to the net...don't do it all in the same game. Keep it unpredictable ;).

@pierroulechou Год назад

to reach top 300 having strong serve+1 is key, to not get completly exhausted of all the matches, will save you lots of injury as well since lots of the rallies will be shorter etc. all about being agressive, cauz most of points are at the Final, and without being agressive you get too tired-injured before the end.

@ST-ek6lf Год назад

Since I’m Japanese, I would like to point out that I don’t think the opponent was necessarily a defensive player . We Japanese usual don’t have big forehand/ service like you. Our baseline strategies are basically hit back consistently and aim corners right and left. When we have chance , go forward. It just shows that your base strokes are not as consistent as Pro players with ATP POINTS. So I think it’s important to develop solid strokes to keep hitting like that for 3 hours before aiming for aces .

@shyrafrancisco2248 Год назад

One way to reach the next level would be to develop consistent drop shots (both forehand and backhand) from the baseline. Not everyone has the ability to do this, but Carlos Alcaraz has shown the world that baseline drop shots can be very effective offensive weapons.

@mideastmadness1 Год назад

Incredible - how much better your BH is. Very solid. Very impressive. How often do you practice drop shots? On slow red clay where your opponent is often 7 feet behind the baseline, they can really come in handy. They are not easy to do but worth the practice. best of luck!

@ronm7114 Год назад

i remember these kinda players lol. They are a nightmare to play against. Look how easy he defended, amazing. U got to really step on these players with extreme aggression. Good match though.

@koaeraser Год назад

Alex, I think this match shows you need to develop weapons that can hurt oppos at this level. Your forehand and backhand right now cannot generate easy points in rally situations. Perhaps work on your forehand and flatten it out a bit on your offensive strokes. Best luck!

@milowhite5134 Год назад

I think you should incorporate the drop shot in these kinds of players because even though them being so fast, you could find more opportunities since they need to hit it up.

Of course i am not in the same level with you. But its clear that you played the game what your opponents likes. He can do it all night long playing from the baseline, coming for some cheeky netplay. You should have tried to crush him, better return on his below avarage serve, getting away time from him. This match means you were not bad in his game in the first set. But what about your game? Your tactic? You should build your own playstyle, in the long-therme it will be better for you. I know you are at the beginning of this journey, keep up the good work. And its always easier from the outside, i didnt mean to criticize you, jut to give you two thoughts that might be useful. Good Luck!

I think you needed to have taken the ball earlier, especially when he's looping a ball back whenever you hit a good attacking shot you let it drop a bit which gave him time and the point is reset. Maybe next time, in the first set after hitting a good shot and he loops one, take it really early and angle it to give yourself hopefully more space to attack on the next shot. Like you said, you can't go blasting all the time against a player like this, really tough match to be fair.
