4:00 To me screaming like this makes it seem like the player feels like they are not in control, so they feel the need to show that they think they are in control. But if you look at someone like Federer or Sinner who never really does this and silently destroys opponents it is more scary to me, because they know they will win so they feel no need to scream.
Even if that were the case, I think that's commendable! Someone understanding that they are not in control of their emotions yet puts a positive effort into controlling them shows awareness of the fight within themselves. Federer has screamed "c'mon" many, many times in his career (ruclips.net/video/hP3pQHQWpGI/видео.html), while Sinner won't scream much but he'll definitely show emotion and get the crowd fired up on big points ( ruclips.net/video/4-6A0zYWxos/видео.htmlfeature=shared&t=286 )
@CoachAdrian Yes I would agree that it's still a way of trying to get yourself to play better and it could help. I noticed this with Humbert in Paris, where he did this more and played the best tennis of his life. And while Federer definitely yells come on at times and Sinner fist pumps on occasion, it's nowhere near as loud or long as the guy in this clip.
The most intimidating tennis player is one who has stillness , presence and awareness! The ones who scream and shout are common! They’re a dime a dozen !
Nonsense. The most intimidating quality would be a player who has weaponized their serve eg. Sampras, Karlovic, Isner etc. Imagine playing someone who has a serve that you cannot think you can break and where you're constantly under pressure to hold on your own serve. That's much more intimidating than playing some sort of Leyton Hewitt tenacious type as it knaws at throughout the entire match.
A player who has a great serve but crappy return of serve has a hard time winning matches. The serve is the most important shot but sometimes it is overrated. You don't have to serve at over 120 mph to hold serve easily. In fact you can hold serve easily without hitting a single ace. Serve bots are not as intimidating as you might think.
Funny how players like Karlovic and Isner etc could only reach a certain level as there was nothing else behind their game. Get a game of decent returns and was probably a guaranteed break
Servebots are not so intimidating nowadays. Get some return of serves in and you win. Sampras though was way more than just a servebot. His baseline game is arguably better than the best baseliners in his day (Agassi, Chang, Courier, etc.). Plus, he's extremely tenacious. He beat Courier while crying and in emotional grief in 5 sets (ruclips.net/video/yyrALjicZnA/видео.html) and won against Corretja while vomiting all over the court also in 5 sets (ruclips.net/video/qG_MuDVcpE4/видео.html).
@@jchan810 I don't think so. Agassi has a better backhand, but Sampras clearly had the better forehand and his running forehand was absolutely lethal. Sampras doesn't get credit for his baseline game simply because he was a serve and volleyer and took games off when returning probably because he wanted to save energy. When it mattered most, Sampras would win the baseline rallies over Agassi.

@@CoachAdrian i don't think you can say Sampras' groundstrokes are better than Agassi's

If you're "intimidated" by some Michael Chang type, you need to give up tennis, give up on life and take up pickleball with the O60s....
