- Rematch vs Minh! Our first video here: • Tennis with Minh - NTR...
Minh won first set 6-3, we were tied 6-6 in second set when court time ran out and we got kicked off. My serve and volley worked well, otherwise made too many unforced errors off the ground.
Minh: gray shirt
Tim: black long-sleeve, blue warm-up
My camera: Sony a6000 mirrorless
My tripod: MeFoto Roadtrip Classic (carbon fiber)
My racquet: Head Graphene Radical Pro
My strings: Luxilon 4G mains, Wilson NXT or Sensation crosses at 55 lbs
Minh has such an interesting variety of shots. He has those big loopers, but also can do more standard groundstrokes.
When a wall consistently beats 5.0 players, the wall is a 5.0. There is more than one way to hit a ball and to win a match. What you don't see in the NTRating are strategy, the mind, grit, retrieving skill, guts (be more aggressive or defensive on big points), endurance, etc. Many talented players with beautiful strokes underestimated the Wall and end up loss the match and thinking the Wall was just lucky.
4.5 player (Minh I suppose) has a totally crappy serve, and 5.0 player is totally incapable of capitalizing on that. A real 5.0 player would crush with returns 3 out 4 serves of Minh and literally break every single of his service games. 4.5 player is a sub-average 4.5 pusher. 5.0 player is nowhere near 5.0 level of play. He does have nice court coverage and net play, but his serve is weak, return abysmal and ground shots too weak (no penetration at all).
@@perakojot6524 post a vid and lets see how you do
Gotta love the comments haha people saying you’re a 4.0 and others saying you’re a 5.0. Great playing man.
Richard Fincher right?!! Everybody’s an expert here😆
love your style Tim! Always nice to see someone who knows hoe to handle the net :)
thanks Jakub!
Came back nicely from that 6 straight games against you from 3:3 to 3:6 0:3. Would be nice to see maybe a set with all the points. Would tell much more about the strengths and vulnerabilities (like are those not seen point forced or unforced errors or even quick winners).
4:13 This point is amazing as well as inspiring!
Hey, Tim I know this is personal but I was just wondering what kind of job/career do you have? Also not sure where you live but I would love to see an match between you and Andrew from iRacer3 I believe he's also an 5.0 anyways great match.
Has a similar thought, would be a great match! But I think they are on opposite coasts
Andrew isn't 5.0. He is 4.0 and gets through matches by being a wall.
false
Nah. Andrew is a 5.0 wall for sure. Match outcomes dictate ranking. Everything else is opinion really.
Andrew is definitely 5.0 lol
It was great fun to watch!!
Also - love Minh's backhand, this passing shots at O:40 and 2:11 are exquisite! He has such full motion on backhand - it looks like one-hander wannabe :D
Awesome play! You should post a match with all points included! No edits!
I just discovered your videos during quarantine, and I've seen they're only of 2018. Why did you stop making them?
New video dropping tomorrow! Took some time off
Darn, this requires another rematch! Hope you guys can find a court where you can play for 3 full sets if needed.
Nice to see a 4.0 vs 4.5 on youtube.
Minh played much better in this rematch. Lot of variety from both of you guys.
Luv the net game brougham!!!
hello tim, last time i message you a question about your radical raqcqurt. Your answer is mp. This video shows your racquet is radical pro. Do you change your racquet?
Asia Lefty no I use Pro. My mistake last time
What happened at 3-all to 5-3 Minh?
Minh has a funky forehand, but damn, what a backhand
Minh has nice top spin shots. But all his back swings are too big. He can benefit with using compact back strokes and not being late.
Every point had a great rally
Home grown tennis form?
That opponent; dude must have extra wrist bones!!!!
dat gasquet forehand from minh
squatting helped it go over
Lol you are 5.0 not 4.5
chrisak49 thank you haha but I personally don't think I'm 5.0 yet
I guess I can't tell difference in levels. To me, besides the technique and form, the ball itself is played very skillfully and looks a high level. If someone was to transplant a pro with perfect technique and form , in place of these guys( only for aesthetic reasons) , but the ball still played the same, I would think it was a pro match. The ball is hit very good, but the strokes don't look effortless and balanced like the pros do.
Except for the serves. The serves are lacking.
what kind of obnoxious people wont let you finish your set? smh...these kind of things bother the heck out of me
Where is this
Would like to see him find a top 100 pro female to play. That would be interesting
They will destroy 4.5-5.0 guys with no big weapons. WTA top 100 girls have UTR above 12. Equivalent to good D1 college guys. My 15-yr-old daughter can beat most local 4.5 guys
@@Meidongwang Most likely but it would be interesting to see. And humbling. I'm between 4.0 and 4.5 and I'm sure all D1 college girls would smoke me. Forget about any pro level ladies. Still, fun stuff
@@Meidongwang I'm a strong 4.0, and there was a 5.0 woman in our mens league. I never lost to her.
4:26 lol
Arhhhhh not first!
Great match. Seemed like you won most of the highlight points yet lost the first set. Aka lost via unforced errors... Minh played better today than last time. More aggressive on passing shots. Your volley has improved dramatically Tim! You still throw the ball behind you on your serve and land to the left and no into the court. Takes pace away from your serve and makes serving and volleying much harder.
You only got 599 other subscribers to compete with now!
jun ma thanks for the tips. Ball toss was awful the other night, no control. Practically Jun level with all the retosses
Great player man! Very fun to watch! If u guys have a chance, swing by my channel, i just uploaded a tennis vid!
Dude you guys and these ridiculous Looping balls ! There is a time for that but a real player with a flat straight ball and net game will keep serious pressure on you .........just sayin
Good God my eyes...
tim would beat andrew
check his recent videos, i wouldn't
I admit that he looks good on the recent ones it's just that in a lot of his matches he makes a lot of dubious shots to the middle of the court or very loopy shots that are attackable if you're a decent 4.5 player.
Andrew appears to be slightly more consistent. Both are 5.0 players with great consistency and mobility (USTA level). They don’t look like ATP players and some people say that’s 3.5 tennis. I would say most legit 4.0 players will be bageled by andrew or Tim
Andrew's serve isn't that good
LOL OK 4.5. I guess you can't even compete against college level player since 4.5 is just not college level but rather semi trained. Yea, you guys don't look like you can play college level at ANY level.
That was sarcasm btw.
Neither of them have any power. Full strokes sound off
4.0 tennis!
lol
You can start judging when you have over a 5 UTR lol
Andrew Gross just an honest observation
How long have you been playing tennis? This is obviously better than 4.0 tennis. Anyone can see that.
Andrew Gross you are only seeing the highlights! More than half their points are not shown which suggests they are pretty awful. These guys may be able to compete at a 4.5 level, but no way are they 5.0!
