Thanks! I'm stoked you enjoyed it!! 👊🏻

haha love it! More on the way! 👊🏻

Hey, thanks! I'm trying to bring something pretty unique to RUclips and I'm always excited reading these kind of comments! I have a feeling the subs are on the way 🤞🏻 - but I appreciate everyone's support, so if you ever share the videos with people, just know it means a ton! I'm hoping I can keep this thing going and build it into something really cool. Big plans over here! 🎯

Henry! Good to meet you, man! I hoped players like you would find my channel! I will put this on my list, but I have bunch of projects on my list and it takes me a while to make these videos, so hopefully you see this comment 👇🏻 Sounds like a great tournament! Congrats on getting to the finals, dude! 👊🏻 That's a tough situation and I totally know what you are talking about. I have two thoughts for you in that situation. 1. focus on big cross court targets and hitting high over the net at the start of matches like that. This is your highest percentage target and for the first 3-4 games, I would just aim deep cross court and keep it high. Higher = deeper. This is your safest shot because it's where the court is longest. To do this focus on making contact with the bottom of the ball to give it height and depth, and hitting the ball early to get it cross court. These two things will build your rhythm faster than anything else. Aim for that on every shot until you get dialed in. Don't try anything riskier, like aiming down the line until you feel you can control the ball, too risky when you're off. 2. my second tactic is mental, but really important and really tough, but its the only way out of the "off" feeling. You gotta mentally give yourself credit for every ball that goes in. It's easy to think only of points lost, but a better mental tactic is to mentally build confidence every time you hit the ball in. I don't know you, but there is a good chance that for every ball you miss, you made 2 or 3 first sometimes. Try to focus on those more than the misses. Rule of life & tennis: Whatever you focus on increases. So focus on the balls that go in and feel good about them even if you're losing points. It always works, like eventually you'll start playing better, the question is just if it will work fast enough to win the match. Sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't. but staying positive gives you the best chance of winning the match. focusing too much on the misses just makes it harder. Anyway, that's my 2 cents. Let me know what you think!

@@tennistactics thank you so much

For sure dude! Keep crushing it!! 👊🏻

Hey, thanks for that! I’ll keep it coming!! 🙌🏻

Yo! Love these types of comments!!! 👊🏻 Are these UTR numbers you're talking about? or...? And you're saying he's ranked higher than you, right?

@@tennistactics These are ITN numbers. With every loss your numbers increase.

@@tennistactics I just looked it up. ITN stands for International Tennis Number. 1 means you are ATP/WTA ranked or could be and make an income with prize money. 10 means you have just started. Concerning my technique I am rather a 3 or 4 player but tactic-wise I was playing poorly. Until now. Waiting desparately for more videos.

@@robertdonner5038 Ok, yep - I'm following! Dude, that's freaking awesome! Great win! 👊🏻

Thanks for watching!! Gotta love the awesome subscribers on this channel! 🔥 Big plans ahead! 👀

Hey, thank you for that! I love hearing people are not only enjoying the content but also applying it! And thanks for subscribing! The support means more than you know as I am just getting started! As for topics - I will be covering Nadal for sure, I love his game and I think he is really smart. So many videos to make... so little time... 😂 And lefty tactics in general have been a common request, so that is on the list! One thing I would throw out though, I think you should focus on hitting the ball earlier, so you can target the other lefty's backhand. Lefty's have an interesting advantage against righty's because if they hit late, it goes to their opponents backhand. But if you are making contact late against a lefty, it goes to their forehand and now you are in trouble. so just something to think about, if that made sense? But I would love to do a deep dive video on this so I could explain it better...

Well now you've done it. Knowing you're working on Nadal videos and tactics versus lefties videos, I'll have to make sure the notifications are turned on... The advice makes a lot of sense and is something I'll keep in mind the next time I play another lefty. Will let you know how it goes. I find it very interesting that Nadal has an insanely high win % against other lefties...never mind just an insanely high one in general. Really looking forward to those upcoming videos.

@@albertyu469 😂 love it! And yeah, that is really interesting - I may need to do some research into his matches against lefties specifically... that could bring out some interesting info. I have a few projects in front of this one, but I would love to do something with this while Rafa is s till on tour! My kind of tribute is a deep tactical analysis haha

YES!! 👊🏻

Oh, yeah switching the domain from .org to .com has caused a bunch of problems...but I think it will be worth it. So anyway, I am still working on fixing emails... I think everything I send out right now is getting marked as spam... But I am going to work on that. I think I know how to fix it, but all of that stuff is new to me so it takes me a minute. 😅

Oh, that's a cool idea, like a quick run through almost like just for reference? I'm getting ideas in my head on how to make that really cool....

After doing this video I realized how much more I like doing the match analysis videos... its hard to pull myself away from those 😅 but this would be sweet, like maybe after I have highlighted a bunch of different tactics in analysis videos doing like a collection video recapping the last 20 tactics or so. Really cool idea here!

@@tennistactics exactly like that. In line with you statements of teaching early, the act of seeing and deconstruction is an educational experience. Black belt tactics but White belt execution 😮‍💨. A video in advance of what you'll eventually breakdown in seperate videos or after (i think we'd all prefer the first)

@@MrW8ns3a I like the way you put that - black belt tactics, white belt execution 🧠

@@MrW8ns3a I haven't thought about doing it like that before - like you'd rather see one video where I kind of explore the problem or preview the match kind of thing? and then a second video where I breakdown what happened? Does that sound like what you are picturing in your mind?

Hey thank you for the compliment! I love doing these analysis videos!

😂 the irony... It will be interesting to see if Djoker takes a page out of Fed's book and starts looking to shorten points even more as he gets older...

That is really well said! 😂 sometimes I am guilting of over explaining when I teach, but this would have been a good summary!

I am planning on doing that for sure!! I tactually think ametuer tactics are sometimes more interesting because you see more of a variety. The pros have more in common than they have different, but recreational players use wildly different strategies sometimes. Anyway - keep an eye on the channel. I'm currently working on this! 🫡

@@tennistactics exactly! I agree! For example everyone talks about serve +1 forehand and thats great for pro players that have amazing serve and fh. This works for every pro. But im 5’7 and forehand is my bad shot, I have good bh with good angles so serve +1 forehand doesnt work for me. Amateur strategies are very different and varies so much. Looking forward for more content!

@@LaSalviaBodysurf I had an idea - I would love to have players film their matches using swingvision and then I could make a video analyzing the tactics - do you think people would be up for that? I could remove the names and just list the UTRs to give everyone more useful context. What do you think?

@@tennistactics I think that would be very helpful !! I dont know if that would attract more views for you than using pro players name on the thumbnail tho. But Im pretty sure it would be more helpful if someone is analyzing my match ( or some amateur match that people actually have flaws ) saying what I could have done better than telling what Federer does right. Again, dont know if that would be ideal for growing the channel, good luck!

@@LaSalviaBodysurf I want to do this - any chance you want to send me a swing vision match to analyze? You can upload them to the swing vision feed and I can watch the recording there! Pretty sure it works even with the free version!

Hey, thank you for the compliment! I’m getting better and better at editing. But it getting to the point where I can finally do pretty much whatever I want in the videos, so I have a lot more visual tools to explain myself. Haha Thanks for the request!! I’ll add it to the list! Lots of stuff in the pipeline!

Hey, thanks! Glad you like my style haha I’m pretty direct. 😂

@@tennistactics So am I. No ten minutes intros, no clickbaits. Just great and everything correct as far as I can see. You should write a book. Thanks for these videos!

@@robertdonner5038 Writing a book has always been an aspiration of mine! haha I think that would be really cool one day.

@@tennistactics I‘d buy it, consider this your first order!

@@robertdonner5038 😂 K, deal!

Thanks for the compliments! And thanks for sharing the channel!! - AND thanks for the suggestions! I'm particularly getting some cool ideas around the plan A/Plan B thing. I am big on problemsolving your wy through matches!

Hey, thanks for saying that! I'll keep it coming!! Lots more in the pipeline! 👊🏻

Thanks so much for being interested! I appreciate hearing that more than you know! Lots more content on the way! I'm only getting started! 👊🏻

I think its super interesting! Great example of out of the box thinking and how if you just attack the hard thing upfront it could pay off big in the end - like, maybe you are not coordinated with your non-dominant hand, but you can just learn to be and then you may have an advantage. Interesting idea!

@@tennistactics Unfortunately I'm 37 already, but I learned myself to become a very good left-handed racing gamer due to a right arm injury. I think if the youth would learn to play with both arms/hands more, they could be able to hit forehands most of the time.. 😀

Nadal could start teaching the left handed forehand soon🙂

The best counter here is a ctually something Novak is very good at - its getting the return deep middle. In this match he was often returning a bit shorter than normal. Credit to sinner for great serves, but yeah... This will reduce your opponent's potential angels and hopefully encourage a more central ball on their first shot. easier to say than do against Sinner's serve that day. but thats my take on whhat we should learn from it.

@@tennistactics Is that something a Djokovic can be training for? Returning those wide serves I mean? Does Djokovic have good enough training partners for that??

Hey! Thanks for adding this time stamp. Curious what you were time stamping, did you just want a time stamp to skip to the differences between them? Just want to know what people like most!!

Thank you @sturtma! I have it in the pipeline for sure! I'm a huge fan of doubles! and there is lots of strategy involved IMO! 👀

Hey, thank you! I will! I have a bunch of great matches I want to break down, so more is on the way!

Hey, thank you so much! I'm glad you liked it because I have plans for lots more of these deep dives! 🙌🏻

Thank you, man ! I will keep them coming! 👊🏻

Hey, thank you my friend!! I’m stoked to hear you like what I’m working on! There will be lots more to come! And thanks for the suggestions - adding them to the list!!

Absolutely! Kind of a two part situation here, 1. knowing what tactics are out there are options, and 2. knowing which tactics you should use in certain situations. I have my own ideas around the second part, but those will come in later videos. 👀 😂

Hey, I appreciate that! I'll keep it coming! 💪🏻

Totally fair to say Djoker was off his game in this match! But it's interesting to study sinner's patterns nonetheless! 👌🏻

Thank you, my friend! P.S. Very, very cool. Ian is awesome and getting in touch with him was an unexpected gift! It's great to have a friend in the space. 🙏

Thanks you for saying that! Lots more good stuff coming!! 🙌🏻

Hey, thank you! I appreciate you letting me know you enjoyed it! I’ve got more on the way! 🙌🏻

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it! More coming soon stick around! 👀

Right on!! Appreciate it man! Good luck on the court! 👊🏻

I think Djokovic was definitely not in top form. His unforced error count was significantly higher than normal and his first serve percentage was lower than normal. Credit to Sinner for doing a lot of things right to disrupt him and close it out, but I do feel like something was a little off that day in Novak's world.

@@tennistactics Thanks for confirming. Not to take away from Sinner and am happy that he won the AO, but I thought the same about Novak. I hope you can do a video on Sinner vs Medvedev AO final too!

@@kelvinlin408 I actually am cooking up an analysis of that match! and the early research is interesting, so I think it will be a good one! 🎯

Thank you! Good to know people appreciate it!! More on the way!

Thank you! Stoked to hear you enjoyed it! More on the way!!

Big Adobe guy! and hours and hours of RUclips videos about editing haha

He will win more and maybe he is 37 but he still performs like he is under 30, it’s impossible for athletes to win everything every year but Im sure he will win more slams

@@georgezazueta61 He's done. Can't win any more slams, the Djokobitch is finished!

Tough to say… he is getting older, but if anyone is prepared to maximize longevity on the court, it’s Novak.

That’s a good point, I think people are too quick to jump to conclusions sometimes. Novak is still ranked number one in the world right now….

@@tennistactics He won't win anymore, his days are done, he's almost 40, his best chance is Wimbledon this year, but he's no Federer, karma going to get him once again, he's probably not even getting to a finals at Wimbledon this year, maybe QF.

Good suggestions!! 👀 Thanks for the feedback! Always trying new things so it’s great to hear when people like it! 👊🏻

Yeah, watching it back I kinda felt the same thing. thanks for confirming that in my mind! I gotta level up my graph game! haha

Hey, thanks for saying that! I love helping players with strategy! 👊🏻

Nice! Thanks for your support! It means a lot to hear people are enjoying the channel!
