I appreciate what you said at the end of the video. People don't realize nor credit how mental tennis can be. Being able to see the emotion in your eyes, hearing it in your voice really brings that to light. Tennis is not an easy sport, physically or mentally. There can be many setbacks. We see that same pattern in the pros. Good luck for the rest of the season and tennis career man! You fight out there like a caged animal!
Him claiming he wasn't ready at the underarm serve as he was leading 0-3 0/40 is particularly horrendous sportsmanship. Not to mention if the sport finally had live replays, he would be getting at least a warning for something like this, if not even a fine. His full focus on you serving is clearly visible, and it's diabolical how indignantly he's claiming he wasn't ready. Just mindblowing...Hope it was worth it for him, seeing as how this video now lives on the internet for everyone to see.
Obviously the guy was ready for the return @14:02. He just wasn't ready for the under arm serve. Should've been an ace to you. Keep up the good work Felix and you'll get there soon.
That was disgusting stuff from that guy. True clownery. Well, from the umpire too. Pisses you off as a viewer to see the guy win after pulling that move.
Cool, so next time a player has to play Felix and has to give consent for it to be recorded, he will do what? If you're going to vilify opponents on YT, be prepared for content to not be shown. Clown move playing underarm-serve either way.
Been following Felix since he was at 15k, and it's so inspiring to see the growth. I know that this guy's motivation for tennis WILL get him to the top 1000, and even if it's not this year, it will definitely be by the next. Keep up the great work, tough matches happen!
My favourite video so far. Great drama despite the loss. And respect to you for facing the camera after such a loss and showing us venerability. You know yourself you have the ability to compete at this level but as a viewer it does seem the backhand got tight near the end. Hopefully it’s a match you look back as a turning point in your career!
You're a true inspiration for all of us, Felix. Huge props to you for showing not just the peaks but also the valleys along your journey. You've come so far already, and you are making great strides with your game! I was noticing in these matches how much more you're dictating with your forehand and how your serve has got more pop on it. Keep up the amazing work, and know that we're behind you!
Hey Felix. Just wanted to let you know I have been following the series since it started. The progress is crazy! Sometimes it's hard to see the bigger picture in a loss like that but results (especially in tennis) do not always come right away. You inspired me (and my brother) to pick tennis back again at 23 and have been playing some tournaments. It is a fucking tough sport. I've been losing quite a lot even though I think I have improved my game very much but can't seem to get to it during matches. I think about everything I could have done better or all my weaknesses compared to my rivals and feel so dumb. Seeing your journey inspires me to keep on trying, your mindset is something to admire. I'm sure you'll achieve the top 1000 goal and many more!
This is part of the process Felix. It's all good. You're on a journey of self discovery as we all are. Some of us realise this, but most others don't. You are learning a tremendous amount of things as you progress and once you cross that finish line the wins will start stacking up. You'll see that once it happens, your wins won't be as much mental hard work like right now. Don't worry about rankings, numbers and image. Focus only on yourself and your mental and physical collaboration to go to a higher place than your opponents. They really are not better than you, and I think you already know this. Keep it up, as we are here for your support. You got this. Cheers, M
@@federicorusso4378 It's OK, I don't think you're a downer. Your presenting an opinion and you have that right. He has quite a bit going for him and possibly his journey will be different one than what most of us would expect. He is trying hard, training. competing, and he's persistent. In my opinion these are all qualities that fall under mental strength and fortitude. On top of all this, he produces content, which is a job on its own. As we support him we will see what happens. After all, being a top 1000 player is not an easy task (after all it's top 1000 in the world). I think he has what it takes, but his approach to his games needs some modification.
@@federicorusso4378 I think Felix's game is improving. And his attitude also improving. He seems to complain less now in his video. However, he needs a little more push to start winning such close matches. I think it tie break he became too passive again. But according to the video he also looked super tired.
@@vladimirgetselevich4704 I understand, but I think it's just not meant to happen if you know what I mean. With the access to training he's got throughout his life, he should have broken that barrier a while back if he wants to make it. It's all between the ears imo... and he lost big time by not going to play at some college in the US. Again just my opinion, nothing against him.
@@federicorusso4378 I also thought sometime ago that Felix is a popular tennis blogger but without real game. From his last 2 videos I think his game itself is actually improving and his mentality is improving slowly as well. I do not think still that he is a Challenger level material at the moment, but if he continues to grind I believe he with little bit of luck can get a few more points and get into top 1000. College in US could probably help to improve the player level, however we see that only few players from all the US colleges together are getting into ATP tour level.
You still made this video despite experiencing the tough loss! And spoke graciously of your defeat and your opponent. That speaks volume of a great character of a person! Respect!
LETS GO FELIX💪 U inspire me everyday to make RUclips videos. Those ATP Points are waiting for you and we all know you’re gonna get tons of them when the time’s right!!!
Nice job Felix keep it up, keep your head up and don’t give up 😊 EDIT: he was ready, he was in the ready position and he was even looking at you. The umpire was in the wrong and so was he.
Felix, you are really good. I watch you before my matches as motivation and I take a lot of things from you. I think you cloud become a big name in tennis keep it up!
Feel for you Felix, keep giving yourself the opportunities it will come. You've shown you have the talent, you possibly want it too much, with confidence it will happen! Respect for chasing your dreams, most people don't have the balls or talent to do that!
Bro You got this I’m trying to do better for my school team but I’m not quite there yet but seeing you push through even when it gets tough in a match gives me hope I really enjoy watching your videos! You got this
You’re playing on your high level again. It was a very good match and a tough one. I know it’s tiring, but it looks like you loose focus at times. Keep your head up 💪. Everyone knows you can do it. Good job on the match and training. We support you❤
Very tough to see you lose but you’ve battled like a champ. Heads up and you’ll get the next ones, the level is there and that’s what’s important. Keep going bro 💪❤
Keep fighting felix. I’ve been watching since you were uploading tiebreaks/matches with your younger brother. You’ve always been on the rise in your game, showcasing your victories and defeats, but most notably, you are constantly grinding even when we’re not watching. Though this was a tough loss, it won’t put your passion to rest. I have full confidence you’ll break into the t1000, and there’s no timeline for when you will. I will always believe you’ll go further than that too. Keep it at bro. You’ve got plenty of supporters behind your back. 👊🏽
Keep it up Felix! It looks like Sam really was exploiting inside out FH wide angle to your backhand. I’m sure you’re already working on this and hope you see to really level up on the BH side in the future.
Great work man. You are an inspiration to me, I will also start my tennis journey soon, and seeing ur journey is helpful. Hope to see u in top 1000 by next year
Been here since the channel's early days. I am really rooting for you to accomplish your dream. I think you should already be proud of the level of tennis you have been displaying. That was a heck of a match and something you will be able to build on! Keep it up. We believe in you! Let's gooooo
Hard luck Felix, tough loss mate and I can definitely feel you when you are this close to quali. But anyway put it behind your back and just take notes as it is a learning curve, you did great. If I can just give a piece of advise is to keep the pressure, I think you took your feet off the pedal specially in the 3rd set while your opponent did not, as you know tennis is also a mind game. Better luck in the the next tournament bud and keep your head high, you did great again.
hey buddy its been i while i didnt watch your highlights. im happy to see you playing singles much smarter, looser and smoother. keep it up buddy, top1000 is closer and on the way!!
Keep your head up, pal. Tough match but it will make you stronger. You’re living my dream, brother. At 50, I look back and wish I could have done the things you’re doing. I was only a JC state champ but had dreams that you’re making come true. Keep pressing forward and you’ll get there. The tears only show how much you want this. You’ll get it. I believe in you!
i cant lie , ever since ive discovered your channel , I have found hope that one day i can also make it somewhere in tennis , Ive only started playing tennis two months ago and Im 16 which is not ideal for going pro but, loads of coaches `have seen potential in me and offered to coach me for free ,hopefully i will be one of the few people to make it far in tennis starting at a later age , and i will encourage people to understand that its never too late to make IT, the only reason Im pushing so hard and getting inspiration is because of you , so thank you
you are out here every single week trying your best and we can all see that you genuinely want this. You are working really hard bro. Win or loss we don't care we are always team Felix just keep on trying your best which you are certainly doing. You got it bro every loss is a learning experience. I cant wait for the next win and I know it is gonna be very soon!
Brother being a tennisplayer is one of the best and hardest things ever cuz when you lose you have no one to blame its only yourself,but congrats to you man you are out here grinding you will get ur breakthrough never give up
He was definitely ready to return...he wasn't ready to get aced by an underhand serve. @14:01 sure looks like he was in a ready stance to me. Unfortunate about that umpire. Great match and playing anyway!
Keep fighting Felix we all believe in you win or loss big defeat or small defeat always believe in your self and I think you’ll get to the top 1000 by the end of the year Vamos Felix❤
Felix, I am nowhere near your level. I play 3.5 level tennis. I've lost so many times in tournaments. Losing hurts. When you say "tennis can sometimes be the hardest sport" I feel that. I've said that before to myself, too. I've followed you for a year or two and this video had me on the edge of my seat. It motivated me to get off my butt and get back to work and reach my goal to win a darn 3.5 tournament. You are right, tennis can be one of the hardest sports in the world. It can be the loneliest as well. But this content helps me so much. Thank you for all you do. Keep at it brother.
Great job Felix, youre progressing steadily. What I noticed that you stand very close to baseline especially in the tiebreak. Several situations where Sam had the aggression and was able to control the point. He wasn't a big hitter but you were in a big rush, because you were not able to move forward towards the ball. Thanks for the videos!
tough loss brother. Keep your head up. You played amazing tennis. I think the next step is working on the mental game 🎮. Keep fighting bro. God bless you.
Felix, I hope you read this comment. I have been following for a while. I also played college tennis d1. Brother you just need to focus on your backhand, get confidence in it to hit good deep shots, during pressure points you tend to use to many slices to not miss and give the opponent to dictate the points, also when you do hit backhands it is going too shallow, inside T zone. So basically, focus on serisouly improving the depth and consistency of your backhand to get more chances with your forehand to finish points, and you are set at this level.
It was a good and close match with its ups and downs. Surely, you will become mentally stronger each time. You learn more from defeats than from victories.
Great content as always! Not sure if it was just your selection of highlights, but it seemed like in the second set he was really honing in on your backhand. After he figured that strategy out I think it focuses him and he made less errors. I think you need to work on that backhand or come in more to take it out of the equation. All these videos will help your opponents if they look you up. Wishing you luck and success.
Great video man. Would love to know what mental preparation strategies you use for tournaments and what you are telling yourself during tournament days/ during matches.
Hi Felix, I know it's tough but try not to get too down on yourself as you played a great match and you could of quite easily of won the match should a few points went your way. You are close to a big break through so keep grinding mate and the wins will come👊
My lad is 12 and pretty talented - he's had a good year going up the rankings getting to finals. But he's injured cauht covid so he's been out of play for a month or two. Your vids are an inspiration to him. Keep going we'll visit the merc pages - cheer up silver linings - next match!!
Well done, making progress. I think last set tiebreaker, at 2-2 was a bit of a soft serve. Probably you are tired there. and the put away volley on 1st point. at 2-2 the slice wasn't as deep, and after this slice, he forced you back with a more quality slice, then he took control of your serve point by going to your backhand. But i think if you continue to stay healthy, you can have the time to work on these things.
I appreciate what you said at the end of the video. People don't realize nor credit how mental tennis can be. Being able to see the emotion in your eyes, hearing it in your voice really brings that to light. Tennis is not an easy sport, physically or mentally. There can be many setbacks.

very scummy sportmansship from Sam
Entirely agree. Pause the video, u can see he was ready
@@Carlos-nc2zebruh
*split steps* omg I wasn’t ready because I don’t like that serve
Obviously the guy was ready for the return @14:02. He just wasn't ready for the under arm serve. Should've been an ace to you. Keep up the good work Felix and you'll get there soon.
Yeah he lied to get away with the embarrassment of not being able to return an under arm serve
the rule is the speed is to the server not the person returning
What a nasty move, guy is clearly lacking sportsmanship
That was disgusting stuff from that guy. True clownery. Well, from the umpire too. Pisses you off as a viewer to see the guy win after pulling that move.

You have support from the Netherlands🇳🇱 We hope you reach your goal!❤🎾
Keep up the good tennis! You are playing well again unlike how you have been playing this year so far!
Your level is looking great Felix. Looks like you were too passive in the breaker and he took the initiative. Keep grinding, great vlog!
Congrats on qualifying, youll get them next time!
Well played keep pushing
Well done Felix, amazing to see your progress. Loving the underarm!

Fighting Felix. You have enough strength and determination for matches to come as well as to achieve milestones❤👏

Best tennis channel for the young players, I've already recommended to many🎉🎉
You fougjt hard and played some incredible tennis. You gave it your all. Be proud of yourself. You're giving it your all.

Great Job Felix !!!

Nice job, Felix. Keep it up, you played some incredible tennis 💪
We're cheering for you Felix! Keep going!
Felix, I hope you read this comment. I have been following for a while. I also played college tennis d1. Brother you just need to focus on your backhand, get confidence in it to hit good deep shots, during pressure points you tend to use to many slices to not miss and give the opponent to dictate the points, also when you do hit backhands it is going too shallow, inside T zone. So basically, focus on serisouly improving the depth and consistency of your backhand to get more chances with your forehand to finish points, and you are set at this level.
LET'S GO FELIX KEEP THE GRIND GOING :)
Love to see your videos every Sunday evening 😁🔥! Keep it up
You can do it Felix! Just focus ob your own performance and not on the results! They will come sooner or later!
wow felix.. your did great. You are a winner for me!! Cheers mate:)
love the viewing angle in the first match! GREAT PLAYING
you got this amigo - stay posi - keep working and keep learning!! That match was so close and could easily have gone your way :))
Very real show of the process of winning and losing, nice job Felix!
come on Felix we all believe in you ❤ you’ll definitely get it to the top 1000
It was a good and close match with its ups and downs. Surely, you will become mentally stronger each time. You learn more from defeats than from victories.
Great content as always! Not sure if it was just your selection of highlights, but it seemed like in the second set he was really honing in on your backhand. After he figured that strategy out I think it focuses him and he made less errors. I think you need to work on that backhand or come in more to take it out of the equation. All these videos will help your opponents if they look you up. Wishing you luck and success.
keep your head up man! you got this.
This is absolute brilliant tennis display from Felix. keep it up!
All part of the journey bro. I’m 14 and 8 UTR and I feel u with those kinda matches all the time😊
Great video man. Would love to know what mental preparation strategies you use for tournaments and what you are telling yourself during tournament days/ during matches.
Heads up Felix. Keep it going, all the best 💪
you played great Felix, keep it up!!
Keep your head up. That was some consistent, HIGH level tennis.
Keep grinding Felix! 📈
Hi Felix, I know it's tough but try not to get too down on yourself as you played a great match and you could of quite easily of won the match should a few points went your way.
You are close to a big break through so keep grinding mate and the wins will come👊
My lad is 12 and pretty talented - he's had a good year going up the rankings getting to finals. But he's injured cauht covid so he's been out of play for a month or two. Your vids are an inspiration to him. Keep going we'll visit the merc pages - cheer up silver linings - next match!!
Good Run felix keep up the good work mate!
Well done, making progress.
I think last set tiebreaker, at 2-2 was a bit of a soft serve. Probably you are tired there.
and the put away volley on 1st point. at 2-2 the slice wasn't as deep, and after this slice, he forced you back with a more quality slice, then he took control of your serve point by going to your backhand.
But i think if you continue to stay healthy, you can have the time to work on these things.
