Two aspects I’ve noticed that’s holding you back big time: 1. You’re moving back on return of serves, when your momentum should always be shifting forward. 2. Split step is not performed on preparation, meaning it should be done in the split second prior to when the opponent hits (you can see the other kid executing this flawlessly throughout the match, allowing him to react with no time wasted). Not to say you don’t do it at all but it feels like after the first hit or two it just becomes completely abandoned.

I would agree with you that he was not looking like a solid 4.5 in this matchup, especially in regards to movement. But again, I could be wrong, perhaps the kid just made him look worse. In all honesty, sometimes it could just me matchups. As a 4.5 (weak one atm), I have some matchups where I struggle against 4.0s but then I can look amazing in some matchups against 5.0s. :shrug: I think day to day consistency is key for many players. Here we have a kid who likely spends several hours every day playing tennis. I doubt that his day to day consistencies varies too much (highs and lows). On the other hand, if you are playing 2-3 times a week, your day to day consistency can be pretty wild!

@@WinstonDu haha okay I didn’t watch the entire intro. I just skipped to some points and saw him coaching and rooting for you. Risvanth is definitely amazing especially for his age and I feel 9.4 Utr is maybe a little low for him. I wouldn’t be surprised if he quickly improves that rating to 10 plus. As for you, I think you gave up a bit from the start because you concluded he was way better than you after the first couple points. I think you could have definitely made it much closer if you played with more aggression and tried to strike first. Also, on the points where he was attacking you, you didn’t really make him work to win the point. He definitely hit good offensive shots to to open the court up, but I felt that you should have done more to keep the ball in play and make him work to finish you off. Many times you just missed the shot after his first or second offensive shot. If you tried to grind some points out when you are on the defensive, I’m sure you could have started to frustrate him and draw out more stupid mistakes. Young short kids probably don’t like hitting multiple kill shots to finish the point and good lobs are likely irritating for them to deal with. In any case, keep playing with young talented juniors, think about what you can do to improve, and you will elevate your game for sure.

The only advice I need to give to Risvanth is that when he goes through his service motion, near the very end of the motion, his right foot slightly twitches towards the beginning of the exploding phase, I would suggest the service pose, to Risvanth, to lean more slightly into the court, as it will prevent future injuries to his right ankle, but also promote and create a stronger foundation into his load and explode execution.
