Highlights from 2 friendly sets against a stronger player (~4.0) than I'm used to on this channel. My opponent today has a very solid all court game headlined by a beautiful backhand stroke with great depth and pace. He constructed points calmly and we played out many lung bursting points to make the most of a lovely Sunday afternoon. Most of the good rallies came in the second set (especially on the final deuce) so stick around. • The first set started 3-0 but I lost my focus and self-destructed to receive a hidden bagel to end the set 3-6. I tried to be more consistent in the second set and my opponent made a few unlikely errors so it finished 6-0. I know I can play well when I want to, but how do I make myself want to? • 0:00 First set • 0:33 Two good T serves • 2:35 Bonkers rally finished clinically • 3:16 No way I did this • 3:50 Perfect point construction • 4:22 Calm return winner • 5:15 Second set • 5:58 Laser forehand • 6:51 Filthy half volley • 7:09 Groundstrokes and a sky hook • 7:43 Excellent changes of direction • 8:05 Outplayed again • 8:19 Finally some good forehands • 9:01 Ridiculous heavy backhand • 9:46 How did he pass from there • 10:08 Twenty-nine shot rally of the match • 11:33 So hard to hit a clean winner • I picked up tennis in August 2022 and wish I had started 30 years ago.
