I forgot to mention on the strategy section that I was planning to lose 19 points in a row to start the match. That was critical 😂😂 awesome tournament, Winston. Happy new year everyone, we'll keep pushing the content to the next level in 2024!
How did you feel you were moving in the early games?
Man was out here playing 5D chess, damn
😂😂😂
You gotta put the pressure on yourself to play better😂
He was just flawless early on and he takes the ball so early it's hard to adjust the timing of the footwork. That's why I looked so slow
Govind's frustration when he went for too much on the return up 0-30 on Karue's serve just shows the respect they have for each other. Govind was up big, but knew Karue wasn't going to lie down
And he turned out to be exactly right, so it also shows he is smart and humble.
It literally could have changed the outcome
Yeah, also with the “YOU’RE DISGUSTING” after that tweener
Definitely the highest level non official ATP match I’ve seen on UA-cam. This was great. Players like them make the game look so easy and shed a big light on how good the top players on tour actually are. I would love to see Karue and Govind watch this back and provide play by play commentary for us to learn more.
Sorry guys I messed up the score in the 2nd game. Govind won all the points in that game, not Karue
That's alright bro, we forgive you. Just glad the camera didn't overheat this time.
blatant match fixing. incoming $50,000 fine from the ATP. also, the "pro" can't get a ball in to save his life. what is this
Looking for this comment.
Insane match with awesome angle. Both hit the ball so clean and effortlessly. Govind's slide helped him get to almost every ball until Karue played behind him to force errors.
Amazing how he would get to pretty much every ball and not miss the defense/squash shots and put them where he couldn't be attacked so easily. Pretty impressive!
Govind never misses a ball! Karue showed real grit in making his way back.Thanks Winston for facilitating a thrilling match. 😊
This tournament was fun to watch. Content King Winston. You are doing great things for the sport. Keep going 🔥🔥
thanks Nik!
Let's get coach Nik in on the next tournament. The coaching feedback and match analyses will be 🔥
@@payamirani5298 hopefully, Winston will make a senior version of this tournament 😂
😅 @@IntuitiveTennis
Govind's movement is elite. My goodness such a fluid mover across the court
Best match of 2023 on the Winston Du Channel! Thanks Winston!
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is some of the best content I've seen on UA-cam. Thank you Winston and all participants/sponsors.
I´ve said it beforre and I'll say it again: This is much more entertaining that regular matches on TV. Thanks Govind, Karue, Winston and everybody involved in creating this match/tournament. Having said that, I really thought Karue was on his way to getting bageled, glad he grinded it out. Much respect. Govind, you are a monster. Hope to see you on the ATP your soon! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all.
love to hear that this is more entertaining than tennis on TV!
I agree
This was really great guys but come on.. that cinci final last year was INSANE lol
@@vitaliyburlaka691 not every single ATP match, but a lot of them and definitely all WTA matches
Probably because it's edited
The fact tht Karue came back from 5-0 to win the match is crazy. Karue's resilience is insane.
This finals matchup and the entire tournament was top tier. The way Karue fought back was inspiring. They both hit the ball so cleanly and Govind took the balls so early. Just WOW!
Two Things:
1- Karue's ability to play great tennis in the worst moments.
2- Govind returns every ball.
This was insane quality with changes of momentum. Loving the content from these players. Thank you so much Winston, Karue and Govind.
This is for Karue & Govind, easier to send $$ here!
Awesome thanks so much!
By far highest level match on the channel, thank you winston for keeping us entertained throughout the year look forward to some amazing content in 2024 🎉🔥
i think we're gonna get a tiebreak unless govind gets injured or something. i think both players have a similar playstyle but i might give the edge to karue on serving and govind may have the superior movement. i think whoever wins this match is the one who does better off the groundstrokes today, and based off experience i will give that to karue. 7-4 in the tiebreak
Who are you in disguise?
@@blazer6576lol. Right?
called your shot
IF this was truly written the day before the match. IF.
@@ayokay123 it was :)
Gov missed 3 returns he got his racket on in 8 return games. It wasn’t the level that shocks me like it does every single time. It’s the ability to make good solid returns and barely miss at all. Karue had to work every time he served which is mental for someone like his
This watch was on the "highly anticipated" UA-cam premiere list for me. I am enjoying all the personalities on these channels, including Clay, Hermont as well as the up and coming D1 players. Happy to be a subscriber to all of you guys.
Glad you like the personalities!
HUUUGE Applause!!!!!!!
Govind's read on return, taking balls on the rise, and speed is absolutely unreal. Karue's clearance over the net is just a little bit low and he gave up too many close points because of it. He's awesome, but I'm a bit surprised he managed the comeback. The biggest advantage Govind has is his ability to do the splits, which kept him in a TON of points here. If I was coaching a new kid, I'd admonish him that if he can't do the splits, forget about getting to the top. It's that important and it's only gonna get more important over time. Djokovic should be a lesson to everybody. Awesome match and would love to see these two battle it out again! Two very likeable opponents.
What are some of the good ways to work toward better splits? And what about working on safe sliding skills?
BOTH. Tons of videos on how to work on splits, but safe sliding skills are a different topic. Practice on clay, I guess?@@Jade-ms2ys
Winston, thank you so much for organizing this. The tennis was amazing! Karue and Govind, it was a real treat to watch the two of you playing at such a high level. Karue's cleaning up the unforced errors, playing serve/volley to give Govind a different look, and staying calm under pressure was a real lesson in how to compete. Hats off to the three of you! THANKS!!!
Excellent, excellent match. Certainly proves Rod's adage: "you're most vulnerable when you're ahead....never let up"
A couple of notes below but fun to watch Govind and Karue battle. I remember doing forehand technique analysis for Govind back in 2015 in Boca at USTA player development. It turns out he didn't have an "ATP Forehand" at that age/time so I made suggestions on how to implement it.
1) That return of serve to go up 6-3 0-40 on Karue’s serve was critical. Govind called himself an idiot for going big line on that when he didn’t need to. Had he gone up 0-40 there it would have been over. He just made a poor tactical choice against a good opponent and he paid for it.
2) Govind’s cardio wasn’t up for the the job today. Karue plays aggressive and takes the ball early, but Govind can counter like a mad man. Unfortunately for Govind that knee has probably played a huge role in his ability to be “match fit”. My guess is his cardio is very limited still and that cost him here.
3) Karue has improved his forehand and serve tremendously since college. He’s a better ball striker now than he ever was then. Thank you internet/video for that post improvement.
4) Technique is important and Karue has demonstrated that with his serve, forehand, and backhand. What’s more important once you have all of those things though are “intangibles”. Govind has intangibles in spades. The ability to return and apply pressure against great quality serves. The ability to chase down balls and make a guy hit 3 or 4 winners on you in a point. The ability to control ball aim and depth off of really aggressive deep balls from Karue. That court coverage, speed, reaction time, and hand control apply pressure in a way that makes players feel like they have to go for smaller targets. And most players fail when they feel like they “have to do more”.
5) Karue hit a couple of critical "body 1st serves" at Govind because going wide or T wasn't working well. He mixed a few of those in at critical times later in the match and got short/weak returns on some really big points.
6) Karue had to break Govind's rhythm with serve and volley because Karue was getting beat off the ground, especially in the first 5 games. Karue knew he couldn't beat Govind off the ground so he had to mix it up. Well recognized Karue.
7) Govind regularly trained at the USTA facility in Carson California. He practiced there for years with the top juniors and pros in the country. He’s essentially played against and “seen it all”. As good as Karue is, Govind has seen it before.
8) Hats off to Karue for coming through, he stayed steady the whole time, but Govind’s “intangibles” we’re definitely getting to him mentally. Karue made a good comment about the bigger you hit to some guys the better they play, that’s 100% true. Certain players lock in and play better the more pace that you give them, they use that pace against you. Against them you’re often times better off taking pace off and increasing spin, giving them less so they have to do more of the work.
Good tennis all around boys. Keep it up.
-Jason Frausto
Great analysis. Is it sustainable physically to slide so much in hard courts throughout college and then pros? I feel like those joints have to give in sooner or later.
@@elchanclascocina I don't think the sliding is the big problem with joints unless it's violent in the way you impact the court. The main issue is playing so much tennis on hardcourts 6 days a week 4 hours a day from the time you're young until you're Govind's age. The body wasn't built to run around on concrete like that. Unfortunate to see the injuries in so many young players these days but players are overtraining and spending too much time on hardcourts.
-Jason Frausto
Great analysis thanks Jason. Only thing I’ll add is that govind was playing on a couple hours of sleep which didn’t help his endurance for this match
Get in the gym, start squatting. If you don't look jacked like Winston you can forget about tennis when you're older like me. I'm in the gym under the bar for each day I'm on the court. Haven't had to pull out the knee sleeve in a while thankfully. Kneesovertoesguy and Mind Pump and Starting Strength are good programs
@@K4R3N Yeah, the issue is my ratio of tennis/gym in days per week for 3 years was 4/0.. so after 18 months of never playing without the knee sleeve, now I'm doing at leat 4 days a week at the gym and... 0 playing tennis, as I'm rehabing the knee. Learned my lesson, hopefully I'll be able to play again in the future!✌️
This is one of my favorite matches of the year my friend. I am very proud of both players giving it their all, and being able to laugh at critical moments. “The guy hasn’t missed one F ing return” that was a classic line and so true. Thank you Winston for putting this together and posting this match. I wish everyone here a Happy New Year and may GOD bless you and protect you. Great job fellas!
Sitting in the hospital watching as my wife recovers from emergency Christmas Day surgery. Thanks to Winston and the guys for such a great match to help me get thru the day 🙌🏽 happy holidays
sorry to hear that but glad to provide some entertainment!
@@WinstonDu you’re doing a great job my dude 🐐
Best wishes for your wife's recovery!
@@BassByTheBay appreciate that!
Donated to the gofund me.
Thanks Winston for organizing and good luck to both guys on the ATP tour.
Thanks so much!
That was a pretty unbelievable matchup. Really impressive game on both sides, with Govind just absolutely covering all of the court and returning like a beast and Karue coming up with great tennis when it was most needed. Minimal unforced errors (more once they were tired) made this really enjoyable to watch. Thanks @WinstonDu for putting this together and sharing it with the community. Good luck to you both going forward.
EPIC. This was more entertaining than most ATP matches for real. Insane how Karue turned it around. He really up leveled his serve at a critical time. Govind so freaking fast, mad respect. Well done Winston, freaking hell.
This was world class, beautiful hitting and grit by both. Another excellent tournament by Winston Du, your star is rising.
Thanks Andy!
watching this on repeat. such a good match. incredible footage. thank you winston, karue, and govind.
Karue under pressure was insanely good. Insane serves showing up at the most important moments :)
Karue’s backhand is something 🙌🙌🙌
I think if I showed up to a match and my opponent won 19 points in a row I would walk into traffic.
Instead Karue settled in and got...more confident? More relaxed? wtf. Took it in stride and took the match as well.
There are a lot of ways to highlight the difference between high level athletes and us weekend warriors but this one is going to stick with me for a while.
Great tourney, great final, great players. Glad I could watch the innagural Boxing Day Bruins Beatdown here on the channel. Cheers.
Incredible match. Great perseverance on Karue's part not to spiral down being down 5-0. Felt like Karue's backhands down the line were amazing weapons and penetrated well.
I was so hype watching this. Was rooting for govind. Felt like he ran out of wind at the end. But props to karue for the grit. I would be mentally broken at 5-0 ngl. I need to work on that but how.
That was a ton of fun to watch! Thank you for taking the time to set up the tournament!
It was REALLY fun to watch two players who move great and prepare for the ball. Their bodies never looked awkward, and there wasn't a shot on the court that they were afraid of hitting. They didn't run around their "weak" wing, because they don't have any. They may prefer one over the other, but they'll hit a line from either wing. Really fun!!! I wish them both well and tons of success in 2024!
The hitter versus the mover. Usually the player who forces the other player to cross over in playing style to play his or her game will win the match. Karue has such a natural placement attacking game that even when he is off a little he still seems to prevent his opponents from getting comfortable enough to attack. Govind amazing leg split ball retrieving on both wings! Karue devastating side spin inside out down the line backhand winners! Great match guys! Thanks for putting on the show!
Govind overwhelmed Karue at the beginning with his explosive movement and shotmaking. Once Karue found his groove from the ground, and with some clutch serving, he was able to wear down Govind. A great match from both sides.
probably the most entertaining youtube tennis match ive seen so far! Thanks for hosting and can't wait for the next one!
This was some of the most enjoyable tennis I've watched. Great sportsmanship, pragmatic answers and responses to each other. Best of luck to Karue and Govind. Karue's backhand is silky smooth. Thanks Winston
Govind defence is soooooo good. His sliding scramble forehand are so good!!! Karue mentally so good!!
Most anticipated match of 2023! Way to finish the year! 3mins till we watch
Govind's quickness and Karue playing a bit nervouss at the start had me thinking this might be a route.. really enjoyable, well done
The best match I’d say so far in the history of the channel.
Great come back from Karue. Incredible high level from Govind at the start.
Hope them having a great 2024.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Govind is so freakishly good at the extreme end of his reach!! Its maddening to play against someone who doesn't just get everything back, but looks so comfortable doing so at full stretch constantly!!
There’s this guy Djokovic I think his name is. Freakish when at full stretch.
@@frankfurter7260 Yes govind is mini novak
it's weird that i watched more of this than the last open but it's just so much more interesting! the angel of view, the interviews, the editing that compresses all the waiting and walking. it's somehow a better product than televised tennis. congrats! i think i've been watching since you had less than 1000 subs. onward and upwards! it'll be really amazing if you're able to get prize pots of this format. maybe do a rather flat distribution of $.
love to hear that!
Dayum, what a match, with a surprise ending.
Thanks for the content Winston.
Happy holidays everyone🎉
This was a literally epic finale to a beautiful tournament, but really, I just love the vibe of all of Winston's videos - great people competing and having fun together, thank you so much Winston, Karue and Govind!
Insane match. Well done Winston! Karue's quality really shone through as he fought through the deficit early on. Govind's returns were again world class, just got outplayed by K's strength and accuracy towards the end. Full respect to both players, congrats to Karue. And Winston, take a bow - you put together a superb tournament. Looking for a bigger one next year!
I think Govind might have an edge on pure talent / athleticism but Karue has an edge on strategy, focus and the mental game. I'm guessing that Karue's experience playing at a pro level has given him a chance to develop these skills that Govind has yet to see still being in college.
Govind has played on the ATP before. Even got to a higher ranking at 339 than Karue.
Awesome match.. and the game where Karue was serving at 3-6 was HUGE. Great play, attitudes and sportsmanship both!
Karue hit a rough opening, but WOW Govind also played GREAT. I loved the way he handled deep balls, taking an offensive shot from what most would have been a defensive position.
What a great match, I was waiting for this! Thanks for arranging Winston and to the players for the entertainment. Best of luck to both players for the future!
Govind is a monster player, will definitely enjoy watching his progress. He has amazing pace, serve, return, gets everything back. At 5-0, I thought Karue was cooked, but he found a way to take away Govind's relentless rhythm of painting lines by hitting deep, heavy balls, and changed his pattern of play. Great win Karue, will be fun seeing Govind on the tour as well.
This was awesome and super high level from both guys.
What impressed me most, was Karue was being completely outplayed in the first 5 games but he slowed his game down and used his experience to claw his way back into the set.
Govinds game is so explosive and he's so sharp and quick onto the ball that he must be very difficult to play as he rushes you so much.
Thanks for putting this tournament on Winston as it was awesome.
Happy Newyear guys and here's to an amazing 2024🎉
I started playing Tennis last year, immediately i entered Uni. I want to be this good so I can represent my Uni once and maybe win some medals 😅. I loved this series❤
Love seeing these top college players like Govind go at it! I watched my (and Winston's) CWRU Spartans take the D3 title this year and was also exciting to watch!
Tourney was great! Learned so much even as an intermediate player. Love seeing strategy and post-game analyses.
Great match. I had no idea Lenny Kravitz was so incredible at tennis.
The content is getting better and better. Insane level in from both, especially in the beginning from Govind! Congrats to all of you and keep it up...
Great tournament and superb final. What a battle that was. Couldn't see how Karue would recover from that start. Well done all the players and thanks Winston for all your time and effort.
Wow!! What an incredible match, can't believe Karue came back. Top quality tennis from both of them, fantastic entertainment Winston, hats off to all of you!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you for posting! Very fun and etertaining match! Both Karue and Govind play awesome..
Awesome match! Loved the quality of this match. Great comeback by Karue!
Winston, this was some top tier content. You couldn't have asked for a better final for this tournament. Keep climbing Winston! This is one of my favorite tennis UA-cam Channels. Your matches and vids are always high quality.
One of your favorite UA-cam Channels - let's go!
WHAT. A. MATCH! Thanks Winston for hosting and filming this!
WOW! Both were incredible. What a heroic comeback
Wow! Epic match! Great comeback from Karue. It's almost as if when Govind said "I only had 2-3 hours of sleep", that he was mentally telling himself why he was going to lose the lead and eventually the match. Amazing how mental this game can be.
Love your channel Winston. The whole tournament was great. Congratulations to both players for an exciting final.
Winston great video. I like the tournament structure as well. The camera angle is perfect and love that you talk to the players during the games. Very insightful. I like the post match break down as well. Honestly its more entertaining than tennis on TV. Congratulations
This was a masterclass in movement and timing. Just brilliant from both players.
The D in yonex percept 100 stands for Dense because it's strung 18×19 pattern.
Man this is one of the best match I've seen on UA-cam. Way to go Winston and thanks to Karue and Govind for making this happen.
I watched this match for the third time! Remarkable match. Both players are so cool, humble and talented! Unreal comeback from Karue. Govind is extremely quick and consistent. Thanks for the entertainment
Best match I’ve seen on your channel hands down. Wish them both a great career on their tennis journey
wow, great playing - both of you. And you never seemed to lose sight of having fun too. Admirable.
This was a GREAT match!!! Loved seeing Karue bring it back! The commentary at the end was very educational. Thank you for this!!!
this was such an anticipated tournament!!!!! it was incredibly fun to watch. Did not expect the results!!!
Amazing to watch this level of tennis with the pre- and post- match commentary. Would love to see more at this angle!
Would also love to see some more in-depth post-Mach reflections from both players maybe a day after they play the match
Good battle and a reminder of how tennis can run in peaks and valleys for each player.Karue did well to just keep plugging away and Govind to balance himself as Karue was coming back. Both really evenly matched overall and crazy good level of tennis. Thanks as always Winston for all you do to put everything together for the channel. Happy holidays all. Be safe this New Year.
Great tournament, Winston. Amazing comeback from Karue, both are great players.
Great content & great match. Well done and good luck on the tour guys.
epic match from both!! ** love the sound of the ball striking in this arena **
Watched the whole tournament. This final was nail biting. Gave me Federer vs Joker vibes. Well done guys!
Best game so far, it was great, had me hooked all the time, great content!
Govind had me scared, just for a second, that @MyTennisHQ was done for...but then I remembered...it's Karue...it's gonna be a match. Great job to both! Putting so much respect on pros at any ranking!
Awesome video I enjoyed it so much 0-5 2 match point comeback from Karue was amazing KARUE THE GOAT.
Best video you’ve posted! Well done and amazing playing!!!!
Superb match, great resilience from Karue, outstanding athleticism from Govind.
Man! One of the best matches i've seen on the channel.
At first i think karue was overconfident with his "good to go" mid power shot and govind was countering it with bombs, he was really confortable with that speed and owning the match. Then all my respects to karue's mental strenght and experiencie, he didnt loose focus and keep up with the score, i think that demoralize govind and gave him the match finally. Awesome match, i learn a lot everyday with this kind of matches!
Outstanding match. Loved the banter. Incredibly entertaining.
Watching this was like a gift that keeps on giving
Man, can't believe I used to watch Karue on those same courts back when I was at UCLA, it's been ages. Nothing feels better than playing on stadium courts! Great video, Winston.
the best match on this channel so far. can't wait to see both of you on tour.
First, the match: just unbelievable quality of play with a vantage point that gives you the feel for the speed of the game. Ridiculous ball striking on both sides, and Govind’s court coverage is just insane. Was fun to see two very flat hitters go at it, but you could see the lower margin for error on both sides with such low net clearance (would be fun to see either of these guys up against a super spinny Rafa-like player). Secondly: with tennis this high quality, it’s a testament to Winston’s production value that I still really really enjoy watching his 4.5 level matches :)
Just an outstanding match! Best match I've enjoyed since Wimbledon 2023 final😅
Awesome Match thank you Winston, Karue and Govind! GG!
As im watching this match the tennis channel is showing an old match between Murray and Kokkinakis. I find myself watching this one almost exclusively and enjoying it that much more. Loving this one.
Love to hear that!
