ITF JB1 Easter Bowl boys final, April 4, 2021, Barnes Tennis Center, San Diego CA. Juncheng Jerry Shang(left-hander) defeated Ethan Quinn 6-7(5), 6-1, 6-2.
thats how all the pros play, on tv you think they swing hard and fast, they really dont. the difference between these players and the pros is the ball placements, better footwork, and variety of shots
Congrats to both players...I still have yet to see a pro instruct the lasso follow-thru on the forehand, as Jerry hits it . Obviously effective for him, and Rafa.....Ethan appears to have gotten impatient towards the end. Thanks for posting
I don't know the players but the kid in white has good ground strokes and even though he lost he has more potential since he has a attacking game. Serve and volley more you have the touch. Good match to you both
I completely agree. Both players are fantastic and who knows if the player in blue (winner) has more to his game than he showed here. He'll need it if he wants to win at the higher levels. The player in white looks like he doesn't care as much about winning now as he does building a pro style game.
@@maxxvelox2852 ya I think you're right. I do think the player that won has more to his game though. If you look him up on RUclips you can see that he trains at IMG academy and often hits with pros.
Yup -- I noticed the same thing. Quinn has the ability to finish at the net. The lefty is winning more now because juniors (American hard-court juniors, in particular) favors that "groundhog" style.
Anybody else who has actual competitive tennis experience at a national level or just placed at any decent level ntrp 5.0+ look at the comments of videos like this and get triggered at how oblivious some of these comments are?
@@EL-kf9vi His game is FAR from defensive. I just watched him smoked one of the best serve botters in Moraing and went toe to toe with an extremely inform Munar and I can say for a fact he's going to the very top. In fact I thought he was better than Munar and only lost because of his serve inconsistency and errors due to nervousness
@Captain Bourgeoisie Bruh they is a lot of counter puonchers on tour. In my opinion I think nadal is a counterpouncher since he is more consistancy focused rather than being offensive. Honestly both have bright futures.
It really depends on how you play. The APD and PD are great if you're an offensive baseliner with modern, topspin-heavy strokes, but if you're a serve-and-volleyer who relies on good touch and feel, they're probably your worst nightmare. Very muted and hollow-feeling, and don't forget *stiff*. Not denying they're good racquets, but like any racquets, they don't suit everybody.
@@say-cred no he legit just lost grip of his racket look at his hand white is still fine he’s just expressing his feelings and not dramatically either both played a classy nice match great to watch
Jerry Shang is the highest rated U16 player in the world with a UTR o 13+. That puts him on par with the very top D1 college male players and to top10 WTA players. He could start playing on the pro tour soon
The kid in blue is a high level pusher. Steady, 80% of his shots down the middle, waits for his opponent’s error or to counter with a lob or pass if opponent attacks the net. It’s smart strategy for juniors but won’t work in D1 or pro level. The kid in the white hat has more potential from what I see.
He already has a UTR higher than 99% of all college players so I think he wouldn't have issued at that level. But I agree that the way the game is played now he must work on developing at least one killer shot if he wants to have great success on the pro tour
Jerry is the left handed version of Tseng Chun-Hsin. I'm disappointed China cant produce another TALLER junior boys player like Zhang Zhizhen to play Instead we have all these short two handed weaklings???
The lefty is 16 years old, and the right is 17 years old. Their both 13 UTR, but the left is almost a 14. The lefty played in the miami open qualifying tournament the week before this tournament, and lost in the third set tiebreak to a top 150 atp player
Both are 13+ utrs. I think this was just an ITF tournament so no specific age restrictions.The USTA easter bowls have age restrictions though. Also I doubt there are any ATP points in the junior itfs.
White shirt seems to have more potential, knows how to attack and finish at the net most. That's what you need in the pros, he just needs to work on groundstroke consistency.
There's boys are good but I don't think they are as talented as the crop of juniors that were around the late 80's early 90's. This was the time of Sampras, Agassi, Ivan baron, tommy ho, mark merklein, etc.
Wow, way to stick in it for blue shirt. He has the inferior weapons but gutted it out. White shirt needs to work on his net game and make better decisions.
Shang just qualified and won a round at the Aussie open. And he’s not even 18 yet. Quinn is doing well at Georgia. But he hasn’t made an impact at pro level yet despite being older

It’s amazing how relaxed these boys play
I was thinking the same thing. I'd love to implement this into my game
@@icebear326 Being "relaxed" is achieved by multiple things. Having good technique, getting good results and building confidence.

3:50 OMG what a drop spin out shot
pretty nice
Yeah nice to be fair

I agree. I think his opponent just figured him out at the end. He has amazing hands and definitely a lot of potential

In my opinion yo can be a pro with a more defensive style game. Look at Nadal or Murray. But ya I agree that he should have more offense

YUP
It blows my mind. The camera takes a solid 10-20mph off the ball. It can’t even begin to pick up on the spin.
That lefty is goooood! But I like the righty’s ability to comfortably move up and finish points at the net!
Thanks for the upload
Wish these two a bright career, great comeback for Mr. Shang
His chances is doubtful. Cant succeed playing a defensive game. Just like Tseng Chun-Hsin.
@Clyde Malhotra he was prob talking about pros

@@EL-kf9vi He made it to the round of 64 at the US Open as a 17 year old. You are a fool.
I played with Ethan at a tennis club in Fresno 4 years ago now he's on RUclips
is he nice
Got a strong feeling about this ethan Quinn guy idk why
I love Ethan's strokes, especially his backhand
wish we could watch the full match
Even though Quinn lost, I have a feeling that he’s going to be really good in the future.
Any details on this match??
Nice game, a lot of spin!
awesome tennis well done by both
Such great tennis...both hav bright futures!!!
@Captain Bourgeoisie Bruh they is a lot of counter puonchers on tour. In my opinion I think nadal is a counterpouncher since he is more consistancy focused rather than being offensive. Honestly both have bright futures.
Bobalot tennis racket seem so easy to use by the good players.
cuz their ez rackets to use
yeah bro, that's because they are easier to use... higher RA (stiffness) = easier power

@@mr.enthusiast977 Babolat rackets are soft af they are like a trampoline unless u got one made for u

blue kid does it too at 2:35

When did Jerry move from Sanchez-Casal to IMG?
great match, pretty sure Quinn got tired in the end
Jerry Shang is now in the Indian wells main draw. He is 500 in the world.
Jerry is now playing Alcaraz at the Australian Open
You forgot to write what age group in the title
that wrist snap is crazy
White shirt’s FH reminds me of tiafoe’s forehand
Good match
was Quinn injured in 2nd and 3rd set?
No, Shang is just better.
It must be tough to win a first set tiebreak and then get rolled in the next two sets. But kudos to Quinn for making it to the finals.
what are the camera angles 🐬🐬🐬🐬
Yes finally! Net game in juniors (or at all for that matter lol)
Is this a 3.5 usta match?
5.5
White shirt forehand like jannik’s
the one with the white hat has my heart🤍
Im confused. Let is not a thing in that tournament ???
nope
What level of tennis would this be rated as, 6.0?
10-12 I think for
Jerry Shang is the highest rated U16 player in the world with a UTR o 13+. That puts him on par with the very top D1 college male players and to top10 WTA players. He could start playing on the pro tour soon
@@TheDanieloro and current ITF world #1
Kid in the blue would be perfect for doubles
Completely wrong. Doubles requires a much better serve and to be a lot stronger. His volleys aren’t good enough. He’s a singles player.
good game
0:55
"Oh nono. How do you not call that?"
Lmao it was on the inside of the line
Play it at 0.25, easily out
@@OhhIbbyOhh right
The kid in blue is a high level pusher. Steady, 80% of his shots down the middle, waits for his opponent’s error or to counter with a lob or pass if opponent attacks the net. It’s smart strategy for juniors but won’t work in D1 or pro level. The kid in the white hat has more potential from what I see.
Nah jerry is amazing in these highlights he kinda looks like a pusher but trust me the guy can hit. Watch his match with axel geller it’s on RUclips
He already has a UTR higher than 99% of all college players so I think he wouldn't have issued at that level. But I agree that the way the game is played now he must work on developing at least one killer shot if he wants to have great success on the pro tour

He's already better than most d1 players
Jerry is already pretty much at a pro level and he is still 16 years old. Idk what you are on about
Nice to see a US boy who plays aggressively. The stuff they teach at USTA Player Development is too defensive.
I like the right handed guy
lost the first set in a tight breaker? and then won 61 62... mental strength difference between kids and adults
Nice tennis. What age and what UTR? Any ATP points?
13+ UTR for both players and I believe the lefty has some atp points
The lefty is 16 years old, and the right is 17 years old. Their both 13 UTR, but the left is almost a 14. The lefty played in the miami open qualifying tournament the week before this tournament, and lost in the third set tiebreak to a top 150 atp player
Juncheng Shang is 13.4, and Ethan Quinn is 13.2
Ethan quinn is a 13 UTR and Juncheng Jerry Shang is also a 13 UTR
Both are 13+ utrs. I think this was just an ITF tournament so no specific age restrictions.The USTA easter bowls have age restrictions though. Also I doubt there are any ATP points in the junior itfs.
So much spin
White shirt seems to have more potential, knows how to attack and finish at the net most. That's what you need in the pros, he just needs to work on groundstroke consistency.
Some damned scary talent right there. Would be curious to know what racquets they're using.
Both babolats. It’s the racquet to use these days!
The guy in white is using a pure strike and the guy in blue is using pure drive I think
bruh can u not see
I wanna see some good junior one handers, any suggestions?
me too
Mpetchi-Perricard is 7th junior and he has a one hander but no idea if it’s good (well obviously it’s good cuz he’s #7) but you get what I mean
kid in the blue reminds me a lot of nadal
Wow they’re quite good one of them should make it to the final
this was the finals lol
age?
The boy in blue is chinese, and he was born in Feburary 2005.
Blue is 16 and white is 17
4:44 🤣🤣🤣
Pov: u searched up itf as in I talk
Ayo where the comments at 😳
What is their age,
Somebody said the blue one is born in 2005 but idk seems older to me
@@Nathan-pe9hx blue is 16 now.
Blue is 16 and white is 17
Dude in black shorts kinda hit like tiafoe

White hat has such a nice game. I also hate the sound of those Pure Drives. They are so tinny.
the white hat guy has pure strike
howdy
3:34….
yea..that's in
0:55 WTF
White guy needs a better backhand slice. Easy fix and big help
damn jerry's backhand is so ugly to me but this kid can go really far
Great strokes. Shang will never make it on the tour. Game is way too defensive.
He's also a year younger than Quinn. Consistent pace on groundstrokes usually comes with age.
Exactly my sentiments. Hes just a left handed version of Tseng Chun-Hsin. He plays a lot like Tseng as well.
hes already ranked on the tour lmao
this aged well
oof
The kid in the blue had terrible form on his forehand
the lefty has too much stroke in forehand so delay in hitting
I played professional
🇨🇳
The better player did not win on this day. Quinn has the game for a fine D1 career. Shang will get eaten up in college because he is a pusher.
Shang is the #1 junior in the world at 16 so he has a bright future ahead, he'll probably forgo college and start playing on the tour
shang is already better than almost every college player at 16yo lmao
Shang just qualified and won a round at the Aussie open. And he’s not even 18 yet. Quinn is doing well at Georgia. But he hasn’t made an impact at pro level yet despite being older
Lefty’s are better
Are you a lefty?
