gotta be the best i've seen you play! good job, 9+ UTR is no joke
Hey Winston, you are doing good, he is a 5.0 player. And I think still the key factor for you to reach 5.0 is the Serve, his Serve is way more solid, other things you guys are actually very closed.
Winston definitely has improved, but the kid has way better strokes too. He had a shit ton of unforced errors but that’s probably due to an off day. There’s still a sizeable gap between the 2.
His return needs some work too
5.0 higher you mean?
Because “Serve and Return is the key of differentiating different level.” Karue said that last time in the video. Return might be hard and tricky to improve, but Serve is definitely more straightforward way to level up.
Agreed Winston is losing free points. On Winston’s take back his racket face is super open. With a man open face he can’t pronate as much
the lacoste kit giving you powers winston! great match!
Great match! Winston, I don't think I've ever seen you hit your backhand so well in these videos. Payton is a great player as well and only a junior. Keep up the hard work Payton, and you'll be playing college tennis for sure.
backhand was on fire
Super fun. Honestly I thought I was going to watch a fun match that Winston was going to be obliterated, but was very pleasantly surprised of how good Winston played. Some solid BHs.
I think Karue has to start doing a new series..."5.0 now what?"
Cheers,
M
Where’s your trust in me?
@@WinstonDu hehe...You've raised the bar now man! 🙌
You've improved so much. Best I've seen you play
Winston, you're constructing these points so well man! Great match!
very entertaining match winston thank you for uploading!
that is some enjoyable and interesting match! thanks Winston
Noooo Winston! That loss after match point is very relatable. You played great. And I think that result would still bump up your UTR.
Great Game!!! I really enjoyed.
the match of the life for Winston! Really solid play, great job!
Nice points! We love it! But that gear though...top notch 😉
Brother!!!!! You’ve improved so much. I think your mentality going into big points on your serve might be the thing to change. I’m working on the same thing and it helps a ton.
I hope this video gives you way more confidence on the court man! This was awesome to see. I think it’s the best tennis we’ve seen you play. Obvious you have been trying to implement some serve changes. You are getting the timing and motion transfer up into the serve much more frequently. You can hear the difference in the sound. I actually expected you to double fault more with how drastic the changes felt. But it seemed like you were able to implement it just the right amount and not worry about it falling apart.
Tactically I think he was struggling with your depth and you were struggling with being moved. But felt like he didn’t really want to take any pace off to be a bit more accurate. So it was this interesting intense back and forth. I think you guys should play each other more often. This is one of those matchups I feel like you would both learn a ton from.
Winston’s ground stroke improved so much. Keep up the good work man
Bro the improvement from winston is crazy i remember when i first started watching like a year ago this match wouldve been 8-0 😭keep it up winston this is great
Oh my this is so good!!! 👍
Love the point construction at 13:27, I thought you let him off the hook a couple times but you ended up with a good forehand winner in the end. That was a nice stretch in the middle of the match where you were really setting up your shots well, very impressive.
Winston your backhand with killer in this match!
Payton's game's solid. Especially the service motion. Still needs to pick and choose the right moment to come in for the volley. Also, Payton needs to play the working ground strokes more and aim to move the opponent rather than going for the kill too early. He'll figure that out soon enough. Winston, this has been the most consistent you've been on the vids. Your patience paid off during the match. I'm still waiting for an opportunity to hit with you though. I hope I get the chance before I get too old.
Good stuff. 9+ UTR is good. Good luck to Payton in his college tennis journey. He should be able to find a solid team!
13:05 , great point. Very patient and what an important point. It must have felt great!
AWESOME Winston do you have any tips on playing tennis since today I actually have tennis class
Sheesh some of your backhands were insane!
It's nice to see how you improved over the months. I wish you would come to the net more often cos you can play aggressive if you want. 😊
Graceful in defeat Winston
Game 3 and 5 were my fav!
Winston, you had him! You played great...just need to mentally stay strong to the very end. The pressure was all on Payton at 40-love with multiple match points. Need to keep the ball in no matter what.
Winston, those jumping backhands are INSANE. The one at 14:40 is super slick. Nice playing!
Reminds me a lot of my matches, Winston - losing focus and going big when trying to close it out.
This guy's torso rotation on serve is exemplary
Winston, you played good in this match! Your serve was better than usual (which is your weakness), and your ground strokes were even better then usual. You didnt make very many unforced errors either. Nice play! But dont let those close ones slip away.
Well played Winston. You were very close to winning. Massive improvement on your game. You should continue to work on improving your serve which would bring you to the next level. Your shot selection is generally good but I think you should come to the net more often. You had plenty of shots with very good length that pushed Payton far behind the baseline. You could have finished them with easy volleys but instead you stayed back and allowed Payton to stay in the rally.
Good stuff Winston gotta challenge u one time when I get to Cali!
Payton's serves have a lot of movement on it, really wicked
Is no one gonna talk about the 40-0 choke😅
Great match, seemed like both players did best when they were more in the grindset rather than going for big shots randomly rather than selectively. Really good serving from Payton, and I love the new backhand Winston, looks like you and Ruud have made some real strides in that shot recently.
Holy cow Winston is balling out
Love the Lacoste Winston!
Winston great match and video. Base on your current playing, I put you at a high UTR 8 to low 9; which would make you a solid 5.0.
Looks like Payton’s last tournament was a Men’s Open and beat a 8.8 (0&0) and had a competitive match against a 11+ college D1 starter. So you played well against Payton. 🎉
Man, that was a great comeback by Payton. Winston, u had 3 match points.. So close to winning.. Good game guys
AMAZING
Lacoste makes some of the best tennis outfits, great looking and incredible fabric!
Nice playing! The return at 4-4 when winston broke was out! You can freeze the frame there and it was out. Fair enought to keep plauing if in doubt, though. Now, the 40-0 and triple match point lost... That is the one the hunts you.
You da man, Bruh!
Hey Winston entertaining match your young opponent has lots of potential he has good form and technique if I could offer advice I'd tell him to be more compact and to lower his preparation on his forehand that's why he was late and hitting the ball into the net, the rest of game looks good....as far as winston goes he improved immensely beautiful ground strokes just need to work on volleys and overheads
It looks like you had to deal with nerves until @ 1-4, glad you were able to relax. Btw, be mindful of your serve returns; they were consistently near the T at the service line which sets you up for a disadvantage
Great match! You deserved to win, a shame that few match points.
Nice game
great work! Winston, i'd love for you to change your serve grip slightly. not trying to backseat play but I belive you will find some benefit. think about pulling your racket out of water.
Nice work Winston, the Lacoste gear looks great too! Jealous Lol. Just wondering how you set your GoPro up to record these matches. I noticed in your description you use a Go Pro Hero 8. I recently bought one myself to record my gameplay for improvement purposes. What is your setup, and which setting do you recommend for your quality recordings? Thanks in advance Winston!
4k 60fps is what I do
Thank you Winston! My footage always gets so much wind noise in the background. Do you have an gopro attachments to reduce this? Your videos have zero wind noise compared to my footage.
Love the videos pls bring back Dylan!!
which Dylan?
@@WinstonDuDylan Charlap who recently played against Niels, his shot power really amazed me
Your growth is insane keep it up Winston!
What is the stencil on your strings? I’ve been seeing that circle around and am clueless.
Solinco
yo winston never seen you play like this ur himmm
Looking better bro
lacoste kit tuff
Hey Winston, apologies if it's been asked before, but why didn't you post your UTR?
I wish I could go against Winston but I don’t know where you play tennis at and I live in fresno so…yeah
great gameplay Winston! Is it possible for you to play Arthur Fery?
don't know if he would want to play me lol
Then maybe match him up with someone else. That would be another video id love to watch
3:39 insane forehand
gotta be the best 9 utr i have ever seen!!!
hate to sound dumb, but what’s like the general equivalents between UTR and USTA, like how does skill level translate between the two ?
tennispal.com/the-rating-calculator/
Winston, the gap between your BH and FH has really closed. I wonder if you should not fade to your left so much as the BH weakness has turned into a solid stroke and not giving up your deuce side opening could be a good thing for you. I think Payton could benefit from maybe taking some off his FH when he’s pulled out wide. A lot of unforced errors on his side maybe trying to do too much when a simple high crosscourt shot would do just fine. All in all super match - lots of fun to watch!
Lacoste is some of the best tennis gear these days. keep it!
The best match I've seen you play so far, Winston! But those match points you lost did not make any sense. It feels like you had some good intention at that moment :)
Winston, make PA98 ur primary stick. Anyone can be Alcaraz with that stick
what a choke in 7-6! Sverev is that you?
Lacoste gear is tough
What camera you use?
gopro
@winston I got some Lacoste gear from Miami open, I gotta say their material used on the shorts I am very much not a fan of.
Feels like a tarp, absolutely garbage feel for something so pricey imo
I think Payton’s play style would be aided better by a slightly more control oriented racket than the Aero he is using. Wilson Blade or Head Speed/Gravity
Du looking solid woohoo
Winston was not missing .... until the end.
🎉
That grip that Winston uses for the serve looks eastern-ish. Something about it seems off. The racquets looks too open during the motion.
definitely not eastern but yes the motion could be too open
This match was kind of a roller coaster. Winston couldn’t buy a first serve like Kyrgios and played like a 3.5 in the beginning. Then he went god mode and played like a 5.0. Then choke city. Fun match!
God mode baby
Winston, legit, why aren't you playing tournaments so you can have a real UTR?
Winston, I could see that your ball toss was way too in front when you serve for the match.
Dunno if it's the nerve or the your tendency when rushing things.
(the point at 40-30 you actually foot-faulted with a far in front ball toss. Also the DF you hit was another error due to a too far in front ball toss for kick 2nd serve)
Well, there goes me thinking I can beat Winston in a match.
As long as you're wearing a kit instead of looking like you just put on some clothes from your dirty laundry, all good. La Coste looks great.
That was some solid BHs!!! That’s why you almost won against a 5.0.
If you improve your serve, you can call yourself 5.0 here on YT
Winston I think u got upgraded to a 5.0 after this match
Payt from akatsuki
silver lining is that you started slow, and honestly should have won this match. You were right there with 9.4, wow that is impressive.
Me va a ganar un niño🗣🗣❗️🔥🔥🔥🔥❗️🔥🗣🗣⁉️‼️
are we all gonna ignore the new fit
2:10 yikes, it's a huge handicap to not have fast-twitch reflexes. Poor Winston
You guys play like UTR 6. I would double bagel both of you.
Need to work on your serve and return
I always thought you were more of a 9 UTR than an 8
a 9 plus UTR should beat a 4.5 pretty easily, which lead to the question, are you really a 4.5 or more of a 5.0 plus?
Hi
Think it's time to start calling yourself a 5.0
So many faults lol
Payton, not every ball is a nail. Stop forcing a flat shot on everything lol
winston must be much closer to 5.0 than to 4.5 like maybe 4.99 at this point….
Why dont u just get a UTR rating???
Soon
I literally was playing a 9.4 high schooler the other day, and he was literally better across the board than Payton. No offense to Payton. I don’t think UTR is as trustworthy as they say it is. At the end of day college coaches will trust what they see on film.
