Welcome back Felix. Injuries are super though, but you've come through. As I've learnt with many things it's only a matter of time but firstly persistence and intensity. You have plenty of all so just keep grinding. Thank you as always for sharing your journey! M
Felix, u have been such an inspiration for my tennis game. I have had your mindset for a lot of my matches( i play at the lower college level) just going into these tougher matches and just having fun and not giving up. Keep fighting
It's tough to get any momentum coming back from injury. Taking a lot of positives out of these matches will pay dividends through your future matches. Good luck!
Working on better placement of your shots is needed to step it up and create openings on the court. Just look at Karue and how he constructs points again and again by pulling his opponent wide and then hitting into the open space, scoring an error or a return he can hit for a winner.
Dang! I don’t normally watch tennis content creator matches. But your’s are just really interesting. I love seeing your progression. Win or lose, you’re doing great!
I feel like your tournament selection has been quite questionable this year tbh. Given your game you should be prioritizing fast/high altitude events, play a lot of indoor tournaments where you have the best chance. Instead you pretty much only played on slower outdoor tournaments this year, 4 weeks in one of the slowest clay conditions on tour in Antalya where you have very little chance of beating the clay grinders over there, over 2 months in Monastir and Bali which are both very slow, etc. I hope you'd consider it more, and I would recommend playing in the Australian and Thai ITF tournaments next year which are really fast outdoor courts from what I've seen and the quali draws are usually easier
Great return. You're so powerful and explosive, yet I think the key to the next level for you is relaxation during the point. "Loose" as you say. That should turn your power into spring and devastating speed.
Hi, I have seen that there are a lot of 6-0 sets in your match history available on ATP and ITF websites. In these specific matches, it may be the pressure.
Kinda strange "Monastir getting to you" after only 1 week and coming back off an injury... Would've liked you to elaborate more on that as it seems you were mentally out of it
Hopefully he talks more about it in the 2nd channel video. I know players who go to Monastir and from what I've heard, it can get extremely dull and mentally draining. The city is 10 km away so you're stuck at the resort every day. They have pool, gym and food but nothing else to do and you're just seeing the same people doing the same thing over and over again
Honestly I think the biggest takeaway from watching this guy is how much goes into tennis that casual players dont see; the mental strength, the understanding of the game and how it plays, because felix has such incredible technique and can hold a rally with anyone yet manages to fail over and over at futures
Every player ranked in the Top 1000 can rally with top 20 players. Rallying is not a sport. You start with a serve or a return and you hit the ball moving. Serve - > Return - > Hitting while moving. That's the order. You don't understand how far he is from the Top 100 in his tennis. There are levels in this
@@ash3r01 cause his technique is incredible for amateurs but not for pros. Mental strength is last of his problems. Understanding the game better and imposing patterns can take him to 1200, 1000. Any more and it's technique or physical things. The diff is other players have better tennis. Not a better understanding of the game. The 61 61 player is better in tennis not in tactics
The years of Felix „trying“ as a „pro“ just reveals two things: (1) there so many hard working, super talented guys out there, who will still never make it; and (2) Felix will never ever even reach a main-draw futures semi-final in singles. Zero progress of his match games, has never found „his“ game, and is just far too inconsistent. I like the guy though. I hope he start studying soon, and not to end up as a frustrated tennis coach, thinking about why he has never made it… 🙏
Yeah ive also been watching for a long time. He is just way too basic and I also think he totally is missing the mental strength you need to break trough. Prime example is that Admir match where he finally finds the break at 4 3 and then casually gets 0 40 rebroken. He was lucky his opponent went on a total unforced error spree in those tiebreaks
He is just a youtube tennis entertainer, nothing more. Plus the younger audience, especially the 12-17 year olds love his charisma (I don't, I find him quite irritating tbh)
He's pretty suceessful in doubles. If he continues that route, he can eventually get to play in some challengers and maybe more. In terms of singles i don't think he's bad, his game hasn't got to the level where it needs to be in order to win futures and play challengers. But this happens to a lot of players, the peak of a lot of tennis players come many times in the 30's. Look at the case of Wawrinka, even though he was a top 10 before 2014, Mariano Navone, Federico Coria and others. As long as he enjoys his journey and tries his best, we as viewers shouldn't tell him to stop pursuing what he wants to achieve. After all, overcoming qualy futures draws is already an achievement. Only time will tell whether he gets too far or not, but after all he shouldn't stop now and lives with the regret of "what if.."
Why would he have to become a frustrated tennis coach? He has a pretty successful tennis channel, he recently managed to get tsitsipas and musetti on, and is taking a different aspect of tennis to a huge audience. Maybe a netflix partnership in the future?There are many ways to monetise his work. So you can stop worrying about him and worry more about yourself and your coaching career 🤣.

Why did you not include the second set against Ahmed? It is just fair to Ahmed to see his strong games too. Don't cherry-pick games based on how you play.
How many "lessons" must you learn before you make it to quarterfinal of a futures? Cheering for you but starting to watch your content just to watch the train wreck at the end.
Y'all need to chill! Bro is literally privileging us with a behind the scenes look at the improbable GRIND to make it as a pro tennis player. You can live many lifetimes over trying to make it pro and never succeed. Just enjoy and be grateful for the opportunity he is giving us.
he made maindraw in his first itf back which is pretty good, u are 'cheering' for him yet you watch his content to see the 'train wreck at the end' makes no sense 😂
You did well my brother. Proud of you! Keep learning from those experiences and with that mindset, you'll definitely make it!
Vamos, Felix!
He would have to stop making excuses I think
4:47 Sue that car
*cat
As if the match depended on that. Can't get more blind fan than this
There will always be ups and downs, so just enjoy the journey to get there.
Keep it up Felix! Always here to support ur journey

It was so nice to see you play for the first time live, I was also playing the 25K both weeks. Your level is very good, you just have to believe it
Hard work pays off and dreams come true.
Keep going Felix and never give up.

Best tennis content and its not even close.
The match with the med student shouldn’t have been so close in the second set
Need to be crushing that kind of opponent
FELIX the Cat!!!!!
good to see Turkish players on tour, sorry about the loses :(
Lets goo!😃
11:33 damn your editor hates you 😅 that’s rough bro
19:36 👏🏻
I thought the backhand looked better in this video👍 but man u need to stop revealing the result at the start of the match, kills the suspense.
Great return. You're so powerful and explosive, yet I think the key to the next level for you is relaxation during the point. "Loose" as you say. That should turn your power into spring and devastating speed.

Bro ahmeds toss height is crazy bro,
hating on that car 4:47
Looked on the apt rankings be for the vid
what camera do u use to film the match?
14:14 How did the cat get there?
There's a bunch of cats in Tunisia :D
Mate Ahmed's grunting is an absolute pisstake like acc wtf is that.
Ur a really good tennis player you win some and you will lose some just enjoy the tennis
I think you’ll might go to the Futures in Qatar
Felix, you need to do the m25 Snowden open in August next year
cool
If we're being totally honest, that's a horrid loss in QR2. My word. That guy was....not good.
You are good, trust in God and with pacience and effort, He will give you success and reward. Don’t let anyone hurt you with worthless things.
