The 1st part where they just rally with groundstrokes is incredibly satisfying to watch, especially as a recreational tennis player who knows how hard it really is. The consistency in their movement and groundstrokes is unbelievable and beautiful to see. They make it look effortless.
This is one of the best tennis practice videos in both quality and sounds. It's long intense rallies and plays with exceptional popping sound, great for ASMR and sounds to chill to
This court level view is simple the best experience to improve your own game. It‘s amazing how clean they hit the groundstrokes and without any effort again and again and again. It looks just so easy how they get the speed on the ball!
Thanks so much for these video . Highly appreciated. The camera angle is great. We don't get to see these angles many times on TV and sound and clarity are awesome. These clips will hep so may around the globe. Specially as a coach myself. Thanks so much. God bless you.
Nole always standing and hitting "straight", super relaxed yet more "imitable" by human tennis beings unlike Roger or Rafa who are woowww but so hard to mimic. So much to learn from him. A pleasure for my eyes and neurons to watch him hitting, especially his fh for me. Instead I imagine see Medvedev hitting fhs and just turn you tube off right away.
When Djokovic footwork is ON he is untouchable. The reason he didn't win in the first half of 2018 it's because he needed time to recapture his court coverage form; once that is achieved he easily becomes the best player in the world- and a nightmare for the opposition... because everything comes back 😵
tennis is the most simple and easy looking game and equally hard to play, thats why they say dont go by the looks. people literally think even they can do it lol and im like, ever been on court with a racquet?
@@chloeharvey5684 Of course. Tennis is so difficult because it requires a player to be good at so many different things: hand-eye coordination, endurance, ability to change directions, speed, flexibility, and mental strength. The pros make it look easy but in reality, it's incredibly difficult. If just one thing about your technique is off on a shot, you will hit the shot out or in the net. As a recreational/club tennis player myself, I have personal experience lol.
it is his gameplan and his mentality that hides the beauty and effectiveness of his technique. He always wants to play defense from deep behind the baseline even though he has one of the best backhands in the world and a very strong forehand as well. It is not the fault of the viewers that they can't appreciate his groundstrokes when they are happening off camera at 50% power.
He has a good backhand for sure but I feel confident Nadal's two hander is second to Djokovic. Nadal can do way more damage with his backhand. Zverev has a powerful backhand but not much variety in it (spin, short angle). Something Nadal and Djokovic both have.
@@wcpyrojunkie3747 I would definitely agree, not to mention Wawrinka and Theim are probably really close too but Nadal’s backhand, in my opinion, is better after djokovic.
Here you can see that both players are using circular rotation, NOT linear momentum, to strike the ball with power and efficiency. Producing a good tennis stroke is only possible with a circular swing path, not some imaginary linear swing path introduced by many coaches that does not exist! Forget about misguided beliefs such as "brushing the ball," "hitting through the ball," "moving forward," and the "windshield wiper" as many coaches falsely suggest. Focus solely on striking the ball with a circular rotation and swing. They are pushing their legs very fast off of the ground while keeping their torso and arms relaxed, and this generates the thrust that allows them to swing the racket quickly and forcefully. In essence, the legs/hips are the only engines of the tennis stroke, and the torso and arms are merely followers. Meaning, the movement of a member of the "kinetic chain" is forced only by the preceding member of that chain. The thrust of the legs/hips forces the torso to rotate, and the rotation of the torso forces the arm to swing freely and quickly.
Dihos thing thou is that u can varying ur trajectory by getting more loop that means more brushing and hitting through the ball is a linear trajectory nothing wrong with these terms
Those are convoluted terms that do not describe the tennis stroke. Simply think of striking the ball. This is only possible by rotation and a circular swing path. "Hitting through the ball" implies a linear swing path. We are definitely capable of doing this, but it requires much more effort and less efficiency, so why would you? Linear means that you are pushing the ball, which does not give you anywhere near as much power as a circular swing. Contrary to popular "methodology" imposed by coaches, there is no linear component in the tennis stroke. By explosively using your legs/hips to thrust the torso into rotation, it forces your arms to swing freely on its own, thus naturally forming a circular swing path. "Brushing the ball" is a terrible way of explaining how spin is produced. Spin is produced by the point of impact of the ball at a point above (topspin) or below (backspin) the center of mass. Friction has less to do with it than this. On your topspin shots, you are still striking the ball, as you should be. The angle of your swing path would be dependent on the trajectory of the incoming ball. For slice however, you are simply deflecting the ball by absorbing the opponent's pace. Still, think of your typical groundstrokes (forehand, backhand) as striking the ball!
firstly, its the camera angle that does not allow you to see either how they hit through the ball or brush it. secondly, the advice of your coach depends on the actual student and his personal mistakes. you should not compare yourself to these top pros, they use everything, the rotation, linear momentum, and the wrist follow through to the max. so if your coach says you need to brush the ball then most likely you hit flat strokes etc so the best thing you can do is to try your best to do what the coach says and not to try to prove him wrong by watching youtubes )
early on Zverev was hitting with more pace, and I was wondering what was going on. later Djokovic started whaling on the ball. I think that is something the always defines the great players, they seemingly always have another gear
this may be an unpopular opinion, but i kinda like sacha he has a solid play style and he doesn't seem to be a bad guy. I know that he is a bit of a narcissist, but we all have our flaws, right? even djoker showed a temper on court earlier in his career.
Interesting but if you keep watching you’ll see that djoker is that 5% more consistent and that’s why it’s almost impossible for him to lose in BO5. As long as he extends the match he wins
wishing all the best to Ally Z! Hoping he takes the "next step" at one of the next 5 Majors. (SF or Final.oO at least, beating one of the big 3+ (Stan is the +) in a grueling 5 setter).
Good eye. I had to play it 2x to catch it. Given the speed and size I’m going with the shadow from an airplane. During the tournament - subject to prevailing winds - they route planes away from the tennis center but this practice was before the tournament when they don’t.
No, Zverev used a Youtek speed mp that had a head which the gravity line was inspired, he uses something similar to te gravity but more customized and more weight prob. On the other hand Novak use a 95 head, 18x19 pattern and really heavy spec. Most players don't use the same model or specs as the paint job shows.

By far one of the best practice videos on youtube. Good job sir.
Yeap I agree. Did not see anyone else can play such stable and long rally with Djokovic during training.
watching tennis from this angle really makes you realize how monstrous the top guys are
It doesn’t need to be a top guy. A random guy on the tour is good enough to impress you.
He ain’t lying
@@BradleyChung D1 players are enough to impress me
Novak is so clean with his strokes. Every shot he hits builds up to the next shot. Amazing tennis
I love the cheer for the trick shot when the consistency is 10x more impressive.
lmao people are sheep that's why
This is therapeutic for me.
Djokovic's groundstrokes are smoother than butter
Djokovic has the most beautiful two hander in the history of the game. The court/stadium is beautiful. Novak is the king of hardcourt.
Not at all!!!
mrbobevans federer
@@chasenograles2616 he has a one handed backhand. their comment was only talking about 2 handers
@@pouryavali3493 who has a better 2 handed backhand then?
Yeah, Djokovic has a wonderful backhand. Other great two-handers for me are Murray, Nalbandian, and Hewitt.

Yes. But keep in mind they are using very heavy raquets and great strings that are helping a lot too.
@@pierrelombard3631 they're looking more for control than power. the power they generate it themselves
@@benjaminsharp959 yeah but still 360g racquets with insane plow through
Agreed. Court level is far superior to overhead.
@@pierrelombard3631 its bc they practice 10000 hours bro
djoko is so consistent. he hits between 20-30 shots before he makes a mistake.
Very relaxing to watch Djokovic play relaxed
They both hit with such incredible control. Masters.
Two of the great backhands in the history of the game
More like best backhand in one player Djokovic
Sonny Lim Don’t rob nalbandian of his title
These guys really focus on fundamentals. Some other pro videos it’s seems to be a contest of who can hit the ball the hardest. Great video!
Best Two handed backhands... Simply stunning

Textbook the way Novak keeps racket away from his body on that backhand. Makes it look so easy.
Fantastic.
zverev is incredibly strong but novas fluidity is sublime .amazing session overall .
These guys can go one or two levels higher than this when they play an official match! It's amazing
Novak will hit 50 shots before he makes an error. Amazing. Thanks for the video
Thank you for posting and excellent video!
Who is watching this since the coronavirus messed up our regular scheduled program?
Very satisfying and relaxing
We will have a great match tonight between these these two top players. Hopefuly Novak wins again
More people at their practice than at most R1 matches.
17:48 greatest returner of all time xD
just badly played, but this one is possible if the situation is given
@@systemabc3989 I know, I was just joking.
Was a good kick serve by alex

These 2 are on fire
Just mesmerizing to watch how good their reflexes & accuracy is?
They have good potential hopefully they'll be able to make it pro one day
Beautiful view.
This is great! Great Video, Quality and Players!!!! Love this Keep it up !!!!
Zverev groundstrokes are too powerfull
WTF SO MANY PEOPLE HARD TO IMAGINE IN 2020 SIMPLY UNBELEIVABLE
Lmaoo
Zverev's forehand was so good back then.
If I had a forehand half as good I could beat everyone in the state of WA
Freaking amazing control by these pros, tennis is a humbling sport when most people can't rally 5 decent hard shots.
true as god

Great video and great job!

I think Zverev's groundstrokes are rather unappreciated. They are very aesthetically pleasing, like Roger's.
it is his gameplan and his mentality that hides the beauty and effectiveness of his technique.

I just love how fluid Novak's groundstrokes are.
Check out the final of cologne 2 2020. If zverev keeps playing like that, his groundstrokes wont be unappreciated for long haha.
Lol
Nobody talks about zverevs backhand, for me it is the second best two hander in the world right after Djokovic

Please miss one, just one ball!! Amazing
if zverev had the mentality of djoko. he would be unstoppable
Wow... never seen machines from the future since Arnold.
