Wow amazing angle! Really shows how lethal Shappy’s slider is. Gotta be a nightmare trying to return that thing.

@@user-jj1vy7ss7c He's a lefty tho. That's why he looks great vs Shappy but gets thrashed by Kyrgios.
This angle and quality is insane, I love it. These guys look like absolute monsters crushing the ball like that. Way more so than on TV.
Two of the most aesthetically pleasing players on tour playing against each other. Amazing.
?? haha, what ?? maybe the ballet and those tights they wear would make your weekend. 🥱

take your meds brother
@@lifeisroblox Tennis is in trouble, PickleBall is like Elon Musk compared to Tennis (the Democratic Party led by genius Brandon)
@@TimTheMusicMan what.
@@TimTheMusicMan he means their style of play is very nice to see . Same thing wit Michael Jordan and all the great ones
This is the most beautiful tennis replay I’ve ever watched. I’m a big fan of Shapo.. followed by Dimitrov. The quality and angle of the video is superb!! Damn!
Thank you for taking the time and effort to record the full match and to cut out the parts between the points, this was incredible
Denis’ first serve is filthy. Seeing it go up to Gregor’s shoulders in some cases is just wild. Can’t see that with most highlights. Great content thanks for sharing!
Most armchair commentators say that Shapo has a weak serve. Shows how much they know.
People compare Dimitrov to Federer but man there's a HUGE return gap. Federer's chip return is world class, while Dimitrov is shanking it all over the place. Don't think Fed gets enough credit for how insane his return is.
Federer chips or slice back his backhand return too much in his early career. used to work but he had to change that approach as he was getting pounded on weak returns.
@@claus1225Dimitrov slices the return back way more often
That's ok, the amount of credit Fed gets for everything else ("omg the best volleys ever!!") makes up for it
are you serious? his backhand returns are considered the best of all time but thanks sm for the positive energy
Federer and Dmitrov both have one handed backhands. I think the similarities end there
Great viewing angles and perspectives to analyze techniques and strategy from these top pros.
Shapo has no strategy just bang bang and the point is over
@@boriskostic6964 Just look at the first 1.5 minutes, it's some bizarre game now, void of strategy, placement, touch, s/v, its all speed and watch the ball, move over, next, high tech rackets and strings that are doing most of the work, thus permitting players with less skills than the players from the 80's and early 90's to be able to compete, and what person in the audience wants to watch this, fast serve, point over, move over, fast serve, point over, move over. Standing 10 feet behind the baseline is wimpy, where is taking the ball on the rise, inside the baseline, it's gone. There are 13 year old's weighing 100 pounds today that are serving in excess of 100mph, haha, the game is ruined, you can't mess with a game like tennis, there is no room, the court is very small, golf is the same with allowing new tech equipment, , the only two sports that allowed the change in equipment, what a shame, the audience doesn't even know what tennis is.
absolutely..
Amazing footage. Having this Court level better distinguishes the gap between an average player and the pro tour. Absolutely insane
They are brutally fast as hell...!

@@TimTheMusicMan "old man yells at cloud"
@@TimTheMusicMan - You do make very valid points. The racquet & strings have changed the game significantly. There probably should be some change to the dimensions of the court , especially for men's tennis. However, I must contest your assertion that skills have diminished, quite the contrary the skill levels of the modern era dwarfs the previous generation.
Make no mistake, these modern players even with wooden racquets will demolish them.
@@cloudsmith7803 As the technology used (rackets strings) becomes ever more advantageous to use as a weapon, the requirements of the user become less, as the technology carries the user for them, therefore it becomes a handicap for the user. When the user applies this advantage, they are performing at a certain level, due to the application of the technology. It's like someone in a self driving car traversing around a race course, they are simply sitting and the technology is getting them around the course, a golfer uses a new tech driver and drives the ball 250 yards, birdies the hole, hand him a wood driver and he drives 180 yards, bogies the hole, a college baseball player uses an advanced composite bat and hits a 450 foot homer, using wood in the MLB, the ball travels 370 feet and is caught for an out. These are all facts, the players you are seeing in tennis now, would not be this level using the original technology, the technology is assisting them, Tennis is ruined due to this, Golf is less so as golf is 7,000 yards, where tennis is a mere 82 feet long, this is the stat that separates tennis from other sports, it's an extremely small surface, you can't mess with this surface, tennis sold out to the manufacturers and marketing companies.
i love this!! such a great match up! thanks for posting
Shapovalov's backhand gets a lot of deserved attention, but his forehand is a monster as well.
I don't even get how he does his jumping backhand serge returns
Thank you for videoing and posting this amazing footage! At .25x, there were so many nuggets of tennis form to glean!
Thanks for the upload! This angle and capturing are amazing! Shapo’s left wide serve at the ad court was crazy!!
This is a great angle. I wish they showed this angle on tv, but if they do, I wish that they would give you the choice of which side of the court to watch. So you can see the player you want, or you can see the one serving or receiving etc.
They should offer all 3 views just for variety sake. They probably already got all the cameras in those positions already anyway, so why not. Especially if it's steamed online and you can easily set up multiple concurrent streams unlike cable, pay per view channel or something like that where they license and show only one broadcast.
Love this video,thanks a lot!
thanks for this!
Crazy awesome stuff! Love it. What a great angle to see the velocity.

This is the best angle for tennis, the angles n spin really come to life, thx for share!! Yes, better than TV.
thank you so much for the video.
Super vidéo ! This is what I a looking for. You see technics details and the pressure they can feel on each shot and what they re trying to print in the game.
Amazing videos, keep up the good work!
Great quality on the video! Great editing as well.
awsome angle! ty!
Let’s gooo love your videos
loved this angle!!!
insane footage!
Fantastic! Way better than TV.
This is great!
great video thanks
Wow....best court level highlights ever! You should definetly do It on more matches .
Thanks Nathaniel! Just posted a Jannik Sinner match and working on getting more out. Have a bunch of footage but the editing is taking some time
thats how tv matches should look like
More tennis should be filmed like this on broadcast matches. Ridiculous that it isn't. I think it's holding the sport back a bit. People can't see the intensity. What's the point of watching if you can't appreciate that?
hermosa tecnica la de ambos, y excelente angulo de filmacion, gracias!!!
Wish they would show matches on TV from this angle, it's wonderful.
Love the pov
Thank you for your high quality video. What a wonderful game between them. I am a big fan of one-handed backhand players because I am a one-handed backhand player. Thank you.
what an awesome angle to get that authentic live feel. Best angle to watch if you want to learn to play this game.
I would implore anyone who wants to see the best men’s and women’s tennis players in the world to make their way to Cincinnati a couple of weeks before the US Open. As a native of Cincinnati who attended this tournament 40-50 times, and played jr and collegiate matches there, it’s a tournament that is incredibly fan friendly and a great experience for the entire family. Entire areas are dedicated to family friendly activities, yet they also cater to the adult, with wine tastings and theme parties. Kings Island, world famous amusement park, is directly across the street. I swear, I don’t work for them.
*one other super cool thing to do; Qualifiers take place a week before, and the grounds are relatively empty. You can sit wherever you want, it’s totally laid back, and you’re right on top of the players.
Great comment and thanks for sharing your experience - that's amazing that you've been to the tournament so many times! Many other fans that I talked to had been to multiple other big tennis tournaments and grand slams, yet still said Cincinnati was the best fan experience!
Splendide !
Gawd damn this angle is insane
Yep. No lie. This is better than TV. Thank you.
My two favourites along with Stan now that Fed is retired. Shapo & Grisho are a great match-up for a one handed bh loving tennisnerd as myself. Some great points here. Perfect technique and athleticism by both. If only they were more clutch and consistent...
wow great view
OHBH is always fun to watch
Super quality and angle! Like a virtual player.
Big hitters! Shapo may not be consistent but his game is entertaining
Yes Yes!! I can WATCH the ball all all the time! Much more enjoyable.. feel inside the court
I could watch tennis all day from this angle
Great vid. One suggestion I would give is it would be better if the camera was fixed so that it isn't moving side to side, but otherwise great footage, thank you for sharing!
Thanks RigMaster for watching and the feedback! I’ve contemplated a fixed camera angle but I find that the players go out of view when running side to side since there’re so close up. I do use a gimbal to film so the video is much more stabilized than holding the camera by hand. If the consensus that fixed angle is better to watch, I’m all for shooting the next videos in it!
Dimitrov has great anticipation of what shot is coming. You can see him moving the correct direction right before the ball is hit.
exactly and together with endless hours of training....
What camera did you use to record? Thanks for the great video!
Thanks for watching! This was filmed on iPhone 12 with a phone stabilizer
Love the color and design on Dimitrov.
awesome camera angle
This video quality is crazy... It's like I am watching an HD movie
Best angle ever 👌👌👌
Court level!
Just wow camera placement. I would start watching tennis again if the TV (stream) quality was this high.
I was there absolute madness
My dream is that federer matches were filmed at this angle and are unreleased.
Shap's one handed backhand is the best among today's top players.
court level view😊
Shapovalov has a lot of firepower... especially that leftie serve
best ever
What camera and lens was this shot on? WOuld love to know
Love Dimitrov's outfit.
Great angle
Amazing video. Even watching them at slow motion speed is awesome. I noticed they both launch with their legs apart....Why is it that taller players like Zverev and Kyrgios launch with their feet placed together when they serve? Personally, I feel jumping with feet together puts less stress on the knees and gives more stability and power when jumping towards the ball.
You're talking about platform and pin-point serve stance. In Pin-point you can get more power and less control, for platform it's vice versa. But at the end of the day it comes to what are you most comfortable with.
@ATPTOUR - Can someone please tell me why we don't have this angle with real coverage? Asking for a friend. This is the angle WE WANT.
Can’t agree more!
shapo has the only shbh that's immune to being bullied by the double fisters
Battle of the underachievers. I swear both these guys look like gods gift to tennis yet are notorious chokers also. It’s kinda funny actually.
You're right. This is better
Great angle, but the constant floating movement of the camera is distracting. Tournaments need to set up cameras on tripods here so fans don't need to.
So nice to see, twohanded Backhand shouldd be forvidden
do you have any more Cindy videos coming? they are too good
Yup I’ve got a bunch more on the way! The editing has been taking a while but excited to post some great matchups in the coming weeks. Thanks for watching!
@@ptso let’s goo
What racket is Shapovalov using?
Beautiful tennis with both single handers. Grigor you were the chosen one! What happened?

This is the best angle for tennis period, all tournaments pls do this
what an angle... of this camera.
miles better than tennis tv
love these court level views
Nobody has ever called a double handed backhand elegant or beautiful. It's one of the reasons Federer stands apart as one of the most, if not the most, graceful players of all time. A two-handed back-hand looks like you are using the racquet as a club. It's also really an off-hand assisted forehand so that the player actually has two forehands and no backhand. I really admired Bjorn Borg as a kid but it was more than way he handled himself on court. He was different in many ways but I wish he never popularised the two-handed backhand. When he did it, the two fisted backhand was still uncommon, now the majority of kids are taught this as the "normal" backhand because many of them lack the strength and timing to consistently hit a one-handed backhand.
this is the way tennis should be broadcasted. not sure why all the big tournaments dont have this angle as an option. one comment thought, those scores in ur video are annying, should be a much smaller text in one of the corners.
how come no one is there?
beautiful stroke. unfortunately we have already seen the last GS winner with single backhand. again pretty stroke but zero chance to win GS in today's game. cant handle the spin and match the consistency of two hand backhand
이랗게보니 진짜 살벌하네 ㅎㄷㄷㄷ
0:29 why did they have a 70 year old ornery librarian record the "out" call instead of someone pleasing?
Lmao…Librarian kicking you “out” of the library
Damn, those Woo Girls are annoying af.
Other than that, great video! :D
The HD, the videography, and "production values" are over-the -top. I was losing interest in tennis because of poor video quality as well as decline in sportsmanship. I'm now interested to learn whether such high-quality video's are going to become the norm or not in tennis..
I want a blacked out Vcore 95 lol
This is unbelievable! Can’t believe Denis has any fans
No question whose backhand smokes the other.
this angle really reinforces how shit i am at tennis after 20 years of playing
Who ever tells player to show your punch after each point destroying them mentally. Don’t do that once in a while okay but every point no!! It harms players more than helping.
This is like tennis porn.
Dimitriv has copied Federer serve, backhand and forehand lol . Even his serve return look same
When money is on the line it all turns into mediocrity and 0% innovation. That's why we have the same shity broadcasts than 50 years ago in every sport and that's why a guy with some skill can produce a far superior footage. Well done, sir.
Thanks, made my day!
This is so true in all parts of business. No one wants to risk the gravy train! All innovation comes from the outskirts of what was then the "mainstream".
