Agree. You can’t win on only high talent, he lacks that last bit of strategic perspective.

"Most of them happened in the past"! Which of these incidents took place in the future?

To be fair verdasco is arrogant

Sorry, but there is simply way too many quirky rituals to be considered sane. I actually had no idea how many there are. Crazy.

And then there's the shot selection.

Su mayor secreto es de donde sacó esa gran elegancia para jugar y para todo❤

We miss you Shapo! It was nice seeing you at Queens a couple years ago...

I believe him being jabbed maybe one of the reason. So many playrs havent been the same since then

This AI narration fucking sucks man

I would not put a lot of credence in Youhzney. First he never was a real coach but just an ex-player who speaks Russian like Denis. Secondly Youhzney himself was unstable when he was on tour.

Rituals do calm your nerves. It has been observed that after engaging in rituals the neurological response to errors is significantly reduced. The activity level in the anterior cingulate cortex, namely nuerological signal Error Related Negativity, become less intense after performing rituals. Whether this phenomenon can be defined as a OCD condition is simply subjective.

LOL

Talented and sloppy.

It seems to be a lack of maturity off the court. I wish him all the best because he's so talented. The good news is that nothing motivates you more than a massive drop in your ratings and your income. Let's see if he can get healthy and start playing to his potential.

"His former coach JUICE KNEE" wtf learn how to pronounce names

Young talents are getting stronger and better. So, it is harder to remain in the top 10 unless you are the big 3.

I don’t think so, if he continues not to set priority as tennis is his career. I think he is a spoiled brat.

The problem with all these young talented tennis players is the invasion of the top 50 elite by fake even more ambitious $$$ girlfriends!!!!

Shapo is a bit similar to kyrgios, very talented but cannot maintain the good competition in a consistant way. His backhand is so impresssive.

He needs to improve his net game

At the highest level of tennis everyone is talented so you have to work hard

Tennis players and winners. Fantastic shotmaker and stylist. i will go waaaaaay back. Lew Hoad was similar. He did not live eat and breath the tennis. Laver and Rosewall did. different game then of course, but very similar scenarios.

Also: Get better coaches, analytical. Take Roger's coaches and physical trainer, say Ljubicic and Paradis. You need someone you can learn from, not banter with, thus more authoritative. Sorry, you should not be on court with 30% percentages on serve & returns, DFs, it's bad business. [He did not move and Ljubicic was taken by the French].

I told him in another tweet: Sorry, not consistent at all on basic serves and returns as your contacts are too random, with not enough control, low percentage. You should look at Djokovic, he's not shanking those shots. Look at Dimitrov too, for he's improved a lot in terms of contacts of late

Find the right coach

It's Youzhny, as in "you", not "Joozhny"

Saw him practice at indian wells..he couldnt keep 3 backhands in the court..sprayed them everywhere...good "shotmaker"

Pathetic how today’s players all hug and Pat each other at the net. Nothing but hommos on today’s tour.

he’s a head-case but it’s bc his style of play cannot hold up v. strong baseliners with two-handers. everyone on tour knows he can hit 2 backhands in a row tops, then he shanks the 3rd. his serve/forehand isn’t strong enough to defend a wonky one-hander, period. he’s finished. i love him, but he can’t address the *technical* problems at this point so he gets intensely frustrated.

uh…a description of coach changes is not an analysis of his game or its weaknesses. any person knowing zero @ tennis could have strung this together. sorry but 👎🏼

Cement head. Simple as that.

The heading for this video is misleading. I still don't know the reason.

HIs game has remained static for years. He's certainly talented but go back and watch him in 2017/2018 and today. He may have matured physically but he rarely comes to the net, his point construction wavers between good and poor and he too often tries to go for the highlight reel (low-percentage) shot. Your meat and potatoes game needs to be consistent and able to withstand pressure. Then you have to make it elastic enough by adding wrinkles and shoring up the areas that can be attacked like serve and volley, volleying in general, resetting the point, etc. These are all things that he has either made little or no progress in for a while.

His insta hack gf filling his weak mind with bs

In another era he'd have developed an all court game and become one of the very top players. But the game has become limited and boring due to the racquets and surfaces.

Shapovalov played very well in Madrid, if it weren't for the unforced errors, he would have beaten Zverev

No tennis player deserves a video like this if they are using giant artificial rackets and artificial strings. It’s all artificial. They are all using the modern handicap.

Cant believe he won just one title and that was way back .... he needs to be mentally and physically tough

Raminds me of Agassi when he started , a flame that needed to be controled to get to his best potential . I hope he gets back on his feet ^^

Those are just rituals, devils rituals in your face. Has nothing to do with lucky or concentration.

Martin Laurendeau is probably the most underestimated coach. I was there when I saw the two together in the 2017 US Open and I could clearly see him listen carefully to what he had to say.

Shapo has a flamboyant style. Its effective. But he ALSO needs to be able to grind, and play HEAVY. That means to be able to hit with heavy topspin , deep into the opponents backhand corner. He has great weapons when he flattens it out, and his serve has great power. But, I'd prefer it if he took a little off the serve, and placed it better. Above all else, I would want to see consistency in his team, and focusing on a clear improvement plan, based on analytics. The flashy play is great for highlight reels, but wins matter more for his career.

I think Youzhny comments are fair. Remember Denis had a serious knee injury last year. I think unfortunately Denis personal life more important than tennis right now.

An insult from an ex-coach is not a "confession". Shapo is constantly injured. That's not a sign of someone who just needs to work harder.

I don't like to watch him playing, one season in like 2 tournaments he could flourish until quarter or semi, but then the rest of the year and next year he is just better to play in challenger or stay away injured, he is kind of players who just like to hit big not smart, people says think smarter not harder, he is playing harder not smarter, like to WOWing audience, kind of same of Tiafoe and alike, there are players just play to entertain themselves and audience but not to capture titles, many times they lose even to players lower rankings or less levels than them.

No perseverance and discipline.

his shot tolerance is terrible. not a good returner of serve. and mentally very weak i remember aus open 2022 he was playing the best tennis of his career and lost to rafa in quarters in five sets... he was struggling for months after the loss. sam when he lost to djokovic in wimbledon in straight tie breaks... again not to be found for months...really talented player but obviously as youznhiy alluded not puttin the work

It's a real shame, Dennis is a fantastic player and a lovely young man. Dennis has to sort out his best way forward to start being competitive again, nobody can do that for him. We can all have opinions but it's up to him, his decisions are the only ones that count. Good luck Dennis ❤️

Sensational title with not much to back it up, poorly made video worth nothing (no wonder so few subscribers).
