      Chronic Pain most have some good pain meds to play those long rallies. The opening game had 6 deuces and was 18 points long - that's like winning a super tiebreak 10:8. I checked against my 200+ match database and it was the longest opening game ever!
      If you look at the match chart you'll see that at 3:3 Chronic Pain just ran away with the match. He won 9/45 points and the next 9 games in a row.
      I really like his game style, he plays very patient, defends well but can hit winners from the baseline and also converts well at the net, winning 10/14 there.
      Maybe his nickname isn't because he has chronic pain but he is a chronic pain to play against 🤣
      I hope we see more of him in 2023

    Wow, I really like CP’s game overall. His serve form is very smooth. I like the way GG hits through his backhand, but it looks like he tired out after the first set. I feel that fighting to win that first game set the tone for CP to get the victory. Thanks for posting.

    Really high quality match. GG kind of mentally gave up in the second set unfortunately. You can tell CP has a ton of match experience with a very polished net game. Maybe the best overall volleying and overhead of anyone I have seen on this channel. Would like to see TT vs CP...that would be a very good match.

    CP has a terrific all around game! Very enjoyable to watch and nice demeanor!
    GG has the game to challenge him IMO but got down more mentally than physically.
    Not to say the result changes, but these courts are pretty slow which I think favored CP and hurt GG.
    CP can correct me if wrong, but I think he has been bumped to 5.0. If not, he’s definitely bordering on it.
    I’d sit front row for a TT vs CP match!

    If this is 4.5 then I understand some of the comments questioning the 4.5 rank of other players on the channel. The quality looks very high. Rallies are long and by no means soft. CP has the more solid game still. Great match.

    Is this a competition to see who manages even one game without foot fault? While GG steps on the white line every serve, Chronic essentially has his entire foot INSIDE the blue area! Nobody bothered to call even one foot fault in this "official" USTA league match?!

    @alwaysprepared Před rokem +1

    Feels like the match should have been closer but Pain was just more consistent overall.
    A couple of observations. Pain foot-faulted a lot, not that it mattered much. Big Shot seemed like he was letting the ball get behind him on most forehands which affected his consistency. Also, he never took a split-step when returning serve and also didn't on some other shots, as well. He's quick enough that it didn't hurt him too much, though....
    Would be interested in a rematch...

    Both very scrappy players, able and willing to play long rallies. GG looked fairly gassed in the second set and started making many more unforced errors as he felt the pressure to but the ball away early. Chronic Pain has excellent ball placement and was often dictating points, forcing GG to play on the run and hit those loopy backhands that he could easily put away. It’s possible he should’ve been trying to get to the net earlier or trying to bring chronic pain in to the net so he could pass or lob him. Both player’s service game could use some work-they seem to lose a lot of forward momentum by falling away from the ball when they serve
