Hi,
For me, it was Paul vs Rune in Montreal last year. Tommy Paul's relentless returning and ability to neutralize Rune's power with blocked returns was a masterclass. Made me realize I don't always need big swings on returns. Sometimes just getting it deep neutralizes the point instantly.
Hi,
Watched a women's ITF event live - the level between #150 and #50 is smaller than you'd think! The difference was mental toughness in tiebreaks. These players go bigger on key points, not safer. Changed how I approach 30-30 points now.
