"How is so & so rated 4.0?!?" Because NTRP is a very imprecise rating system that competitive recreational players have learned how to game and manipulate, sandbagging so that they can maintain a high win % and "go to states".

NICE Playing!! Cedric looks like a super tough all court player. He's got great court coverage, groundstrokes, and net game. You stayed super tough and kept getting better. Haha I noticed both of you guys doing some underarm serves??

Definitely a good one

You gotta punish that soft serve bro. You could be hitting such easy winners off those.

Great comeback!

Good drop shot

Lol for sure just a good drop shot

good content Kevin, keep it coming

Get to the net and put it away

Lowkey a the end did he say the n word or is that just me ? 🧐

Exactly the kinda tennis content i was looking for, that forehand grip is wildd

You're a decent plater Kevin you just need more variety in your game! Get up to the net and punch a few volleys home!

What a annoying player is Hassan. You'll need a revenge on him, Kevin. And you'll need to push him to the baseline and use more dropshots i guess, also with a more consistent volley and overheads. Anyway, it was a great experience. Slicers and moonballers will require a lot of patience and strategy as well. Keep doing it, bro

subbed! loved your content!

Suggestion. Include some kind of speedometer. It would be awesome to see the speed of the strokes. One could relate to the situations and perhaps do some strategic thinking and mental training on stroke selections.

I don’t know why this match pissed me of this much. I love how you critique your own game without bashing on his game style, I guess I can learn from this and not get pissed of when I play a “junk baller”

I feel you it would be fun if you appeared on Winston Du's channel or if he appeared in yours. Would totally watch that. See you play some of their 5.0 or top juniors.

Bro your baseline technique is solid but your net finish looks 3.5 😂

Yeah, you just need a net game. There were many points you could have come to the net to finish but you retreated back to the baseline. The other thing you should work on is the dropshot.

Where did you learn that Western grip? A Match against Winston du would be great

marathon

Marathon. These matches are some of the most gratifying to win - huge shame that it still dropped your UTR, though. Thanks for the video

how can u be 4.5 and dont have a backhand

Great video! Heart was racing throughout the tiebreakers!

great match. Definitely hard to play against a consistent player like that. Would love to see some more aggressive plays that would break his rhythm because he definitely seemed to be a rhythm player

hey Kevin, what is your racket specification especially the racket weight ? curious

The same as last Match, no dropshots

i would love to play you! loved your game style

🎾🔝

Hey Kevin, I am your 857th subscriber. I will request meet up at 100K subs

Wonder how old Cedric is. The baseline grinding and length of rallies looks exhausting.

Subbed! I also started recording my matches recently and at 3.5 and would be amazing to get to 4.5 in a few years if I'm consistent and put in the work. It's great seeing your level and what I can aspire to play like if I want to get to 4.5, but for now need to focus on winning at my level :)

Great job on the comeback! Impressive! It was certainly the right decision to change your game plan! I really like the way you hit your backhand! Looks beautiful! Not as crazy about your forehand, however. It's good, but it looks like maybe you hit the ball not quite out in front enough so you end up having to swipe up on the ball. Good for spin, but not as good for driving through the court... It would probably help you to go to the net sometimes to keep him from being able to just lob the ball back to you to reset the point after you hit a good shot... I know that's not really your game, but it's probably worth working on.... You were tired, though, so maybe your decision to play from the backcourt was the right one...

Put some socks on

Some long points! I never have the patience for those. Kudos!

Your game is good but is suffering due to the fact that you dont move into your shots and actually back up in cases where you should be pressing the net. Your ground strokes if possible, should be weight moving forward into the ball... Aggressively attacking with approach shots into a volley. Your slices will have more pace that is knifed, back hand and forehand will improve with your extreme grip before you'll be hitting through or down on the ball. Stop backing up...Agassi refused toback off the baseline. This kept his opponents pressed back with constant pressure.

Congratulations on the win and the mental toughness to come back from the first set. You win more points on your forehand when your toes are at the baseline or moving forward. Backhand down the line was working. Maybe throw in some drop shots when you know your opponent is struggling physically. Great match!

1) Can you let us know how Cedric does against Slicer Hassaan? Interested to see how much difference Cedric’s net savvy and greater willingness to attack, makes. 2) it might be a good idea to hit some drop shots on a few mid court balls. The real benefit would be to plant the drop shot idea in your opponents head and make them take a step or two closer to the baseline. Cedric just camped behind the baseline and never had to worry about a short ball. 3) If the double faults were due to the strings they would occur more randomly and not on so many break points. The tried and true solution is to just hit a second serve on the first serve in nervy situations. It’s not like your first serve is so big that you’re necessarily giving up a service winner, nor is your second serve super weak and being plastered. Don’t let ego get in the way of winning. 3) The RUclips All Calf Tennis Championships . 😮😂

Your forehand doesn't let you hit anything but junk pusher balls. Stop embarrassing yourself with this awful form and go learn how to hit a real forehand dude.

OWN PERSONAL TENNIS COURT? So sick. Great video, man. Also loved seeing your match and the commentary from Kevin on his channel!

what courts are these

Good mental fortitude after the first set and good job down shifting your hitting aggression so your error rate dropped down 🎾💪

F**k yeah, keep up the good work!

You have a future in TV production. Your videos are so well produced, edited and narrated.

As of right now, I'd say that this is the most interesting non pro match video channel on RUclips. The videos are put together so well, not too long, not too short and tell a good story reach time!

16:48 not including the serve it was a 50 ball rally

Hassaan is a legend. I also played him in UTR. Here's my match: ruclips.net/video/XcFxSzNWslQ/видео.htmlsi=XcjDg-u_uSYDiosO

does this mean another tiebreak win?

Is this camera angle better?

You are definitely an excellent player but you are not 6 ft 4 inches tall plus and that matters for kick serves and easy service winners from tall guys aces. 4.5 usta rating requirements include excellent kick serves and if u ain't tall that hurts you for rating
