@@jeromep4148 IMO he could have come in more, but it was good to see him venture into the net more than usual. the footwork was much better than it has in the past too - i kind of think when he was able to hang in there on those baseline rallies (i think old less split-steppy timing Winston wouldn't have been able to), sometimes he did too much. but its amazing to see the improvement! thats all from my armchair commentary today.. great match!

He is ranked 5th in the nation...I would say he is already great. If your definition of great is a 12 yr old beating a good adult player, then he already almost did that here. His future career will depend on his physical growth and his athletic ceiling. A lot of high ranked juniors are technically sound but their athleticism has a ceiling. We won't know his ceiling for a few more years.

@Tennisbull-match-statistics Рік тому
Great match, guys. Stats vise Winston won 4 more points (55 vs 51) with 3 less unforced errors (28 vs 31) and 1 more winner. Interestingly, Adrian had more breakpoints (12 in 6 games vs Winston 7 in in 4 games). But both won 4 break points each. Winston won the short rallies by 14 points (33 vs 19) and Adrian the medium length rallies (20 vs 10). I love Adrian's forehand 5:33 and how he kills weak 2nd serves 5:46 I think Adrian is a great match up for Winston, would love to see a rematch for a pro set

@mjmenzies Рік тому
Winston, I have been watching your game for years. The improvements you have made recently with the help of Coach Karue have taken your game to a new level. Your serve is improved; your backhand is more consistent (still a bit flatter than I'd recommend for your game style); your sense of court awareness and timing gives you so many more tactical options during the point. If you pardon the armchair coaching, I really believe that a more deliberate split step on the return of serve as your opponent makes contact with the ball will put you in a much more offensive posture that puts your opponents on their heels immediately, especially with as much spin as you impart on the forehand wing. That and maximizing your depth of groundstrokes can easily raise you to 5.0. Keep it up, good sir!

His assessment of the game, at the end, was super insightful, and fair. No excuses. And wow, both of them could hit. I wasn't planning to watch the whole thing, but I got riveted. And, by now, 5 months down the line, I figure Winston couldn't touch him anymore, ever again. Probably 8-3 Adrian by now. By this time next year, 8-0 every time.

Great set, and very evenly matched although when Winston came to the net or flattened it out his power showed. My only suggestion for Winston, a few too many run-around forehands caused you to get stuck in the backhand corner. Your backhand is very solid just play a BH neutral ball and recover to the middle. Karue has definitely made an impact, your level is WAY up!. Coach Mark

@yangjianhunt Рік тому
Adrian's definitely solid. I feel he may have lost patience in some of the long rallies and tried to get a quicker winner rather than grinding it out. Winston's forehand is solid especially after a few games it seems he found a good feel but then in the last few games he seems unable to push the ball deeper to the court. Backhand is tentative. Service today is great! Better control with full release rather than being tentative. Really enjoyed this match!

Winston, you're really upping your game! Only thing I'd suggest is that if you're gonna run around your backhand to hit a forehand down the same line, you really need to get back to the center of the court instead of praying that it's a winner. Several time, Adrian anticipated the shot, then simply cross-courted into an empty court. Great fun to watch, though.
