I love how the young opponent at 1:50 keeps looking to his trainer in despair after every point... they need to have a conversation haha

Some of those backhand chops look high, but funnily seem to have most effect with players mis timing them. Varying the height of the chops is a good thing to disrupt an opponent!!

[@Mary.ua.]

he does it unintentially, he basicly dont have a good technique

[@ajubbgs1679]

I like the match..

[@ndragon88]

What blade does he use?

[@KinokoFuuko]

chopper...long pips...

[@johannes-lukaseller7039]

bad chops tbh, low spin, too much height. I would use them as variation, not as main technique.

[@EAB1771]

it's probably good enough to beat you in straight sets...

@@EAB1771 would be a close match probably, but i do regret posting my initial comment. It doesnt do this players hard work justice

[@EAB1771]

@@johannes-lukaseller7039 well, everything looks much easier on the screen 😆
This is especially true for people who don’t play TT - they have no idea how much the spin can frustrate someone.

good that u realise it was a bad comment. Denis does have a good forehand and decent backhand hit and also with dornenglanz the high chops are pretty dangerous.
