    Thank you for the insight into Patrick not speaking. As a mum of an 11yr old who speaks to no one, the insight is helpful. He wants to be a tennis pro too! It’s hard because he’s judged for not being able to talk to his opponent or make good eye contact to people, so tournaments aren’t very fun currently. Thanks again!

That's one of the highest levels. It would be fun to rub it in their face, but you know the truth. And your fans do too. Loved watching you during that run. Congrats on your success, and hope to see you back on the court or more of this podcasting side hustle.

    The difference between a very talented player, and the one that actually wins the Slam, is a confidence issue. As Patrick says, the fear of losing the very talented player label, if he doesn't win, is what holds him back. A polite way of telling him, that his ego gets in the way. Patrick is very charming, but straight to the point. Loved the interview.

  • @robfrench8325
    @robfrench8325 6 місяців тому +7

    Very insightful from PM. it's a common problem, talented players not trying their hardest for fear of failing (and then being labelled not talented which has been a part of their self-image for so long). Nick said that no one has ever said this to him before but I recall that John McEnroe made similar comments at a Laver Cup a few years back (Nick being afraid of trying etc). The sign that Nick has that talent identity crisis is his on court tantrums. A tennis coach once told me that the real meaning of most on court tantrums is the player communicating to those watching that: "I hope you know that I am better than this - pls do not judge my by how this is going so far". I think that is what Nick does (no judgment, I have done it myself!). Nick appears to be a nice guy deep down and a brilliant tennis player (not just talented), I hope he can let that part of his identity go, he will enjoy the game so much more if he does.

    Around 14 mins Pat outlines some basic Psychology - if you try and fail you have failed, if you do not try you have not failed- here applied to people who have something to lose (a talented identity), the idea they would be the 'best' if they tried harder. Yet Nick has not heard this, suggesting he does not read, study, or even think all that often, or well.

    Heavens, yes! A second serve is taken for granted but it's such a weird thing. You get to start a rally with this massive advantage, yet when you mess up it's like "yeah, whatever, you get a second shot". It would even things out incredibly for people who are less than 182 cm.

    If Nick wants to become the GS champion, he must be ready to "die" on the court.
    In 2009 at AO semi-final against Verdasco Nadal went 5 sets, in the final he beat Federer in 5 sets two days later.
    In 2012 at AO Novak played 5 sets against Murray in the semi-finals to defeat Nadal in 5 sets in the final.
    2017 Federer at the age of 36 played 4 out of 7 matches in 5 sets to win the first GS after 5 years at AO.
    These are examples of champions.

    PM's thoughts on talent (widely shared by others, probably as far back as the ancient Asante) seems spot-on. You could see NK getting a big uncomfy; him not having heard it seems a bit symptomatic of being under-exposed to critical opinions.
    I do think PM forgot to mention that "failure", of course, is not not reaching one's desired objectives but not trying to do so as best one can. However, sometimes not achieving despite repeated good-faith attempts can lead to something like "failure fatigue" (e.g. I had this when trying to break into the South African NGO sector; at some point I realized it's just not worth it to keep trying and I should invest my energies elsewhere.)

    Surprised that he does not consider Carlos to have the most talent, especially since he is such a Federer fan. I didn't understand why he didn't believe Carlos could achieve the same level of shot variety and quality as Federer. Carlos seems more accomplished and a more complete player than Federer at the same age.

      Carlos is incredible but is clearly still missing something the likes of Djokovic Nadal and federer have. He should be dominating this era if he’s as good as everyone thinks he is

    I'm not so sure being a grand slam champ is the be-all-end-all. Sure it'll always be on your resume. But how often do people discuss Thiem, Del Po, Gaudio as champions? Not saying they're complete flukes, but being more than a 1 time slam winner shows consistency thus sustained greatness at the biggest stage (Sorry not sorry Roddick, Federer definitely screwed ya )
    Nalbandian has to be the most naturally gifted. If he Really put in the effort/ cared, he'd have easy 3-5+ slams. Safin & Rios likely not far behind, just my 2 cents. Federer makes it look easy, and has talent but it's far more dedication/ training than people realize. I've heard he practiced specific shots for hours on end
