Can I Beat A 5.0 In Japan? // USTA 4.5 vs JPN 5.0 // 4K60fps

Hello,
Today I am playing against David, his visiting from Japan for a month and I got a chance to play with him
This made me slightly sad looking back at this I was just producing too much unforced errors and I let to many break points go.
David - about a low USTA 5.0
Me - low 4.5 (UTR 7)
Match condition
Sun is facing upper back right of the camera
3-5 mph wind
Faster than a typical hard court
Somewhat slippery because of dust on court
Thank you for watching :D

@leemelvin6514 Thanks, I try to just cuz I don’t have a coach and his game is simple and efficient.

[@thunder2ray242]

The serve is very Novak esque

[@Dipwawd]

Great game indeed

playing since 2023? 1 year?

[@calvinfong8888]

4.5 don’t miss too much

[@nking99t]

where is you based? the level is a bit overrated, especially David's serve can't be a 5.0 in other places. are both of your rating official/computer rated?

[@jimgoddard3957]

I think Japan 5.0 (diff scale) is about equivalent of a US NTRP level 4...I"m a level 5 in Japan.

[@mejartomlinson7065]

Diego Schwartzman's serve during his prime 2019-2020 was big pile of shit. Some 5.0 are better than him. But he still won 67% of his ATP matches in those 2 years.

[@nking99t]

@@mejartomlinson7065 that’ s because his height. 170 cm in Top 30 is very rare case. 😅Don’t use rare cases to represent majority. If your serve is not good, you gotta be super good in other aspects.

[@trex1448]

Dude your forehand is too attached to your hip like a ping pong shot. Moving your contact point in front of you wil let you hit through, crush the ball with more power instead of pulling at it at your hip.

[@williambergamot1342]

you are technically better than your opponent just too many UFE from yourself, also would like to see you step into your first serve more and make it more of a weapon

[@yvztennis]

Yeah, I overcooked a lot of balls this game, also what do you mean by step into my first serve? like jump into the court more when I serve? thanks for watching also I appreciate it.

[@williambergamot1342]

@@yvztennis With your ball toss it's often quite behind yourself so you're almost doing a type of kick serve/second serve on your first. If you throw the ball more in front of yourself, you can follow through more with your body which should give added power/force/momentum. 👍

[@yvztennis]

⁠@@williambergamot1342 yeah, I’ll start doing that again thanks for reminding me.

[@JV-py3lg]

4.5? 🤔

[@yvztennis]

Yeah who let that man cook

[@thelonelydekuscrub4817]

It seemed like David was making some bad calls at least in the first game

[@yvztennis]

Yeah, he might have those were close balls but it’s alright everyone makes mistakes from time to time.🙏

[@thelonelydekuscrub4817]

@@yvztennis That is true I know I've probably made some pretty bad calls as well without realizing

[@MTechnikM]

if this is 4.5, then im 4.5.

[@HankHell41]

Seems like the ball isn't bouncing as much as it should

[@skysail8888]

4.5? U kidding right?

[@pizza_god_brawlstars]

Lol he played like one

[@felixzhao6909]

45 seriously, I saw 30 is better than that

[@andrewsmith-lt3sx]

This is not 4.5> level tennis. Was too many unforced errors and neither player has a game plan.

[@amn6303]

your forehand looks like sinners but with a bigger takeback

[@yvztennis]

Sadge, I’m trying to go more Djokovic style🥲
