Thank you for your excellent editing (especially slow motion repeats) it gives the viewers a better appreciation of the talent behind shot. The art of serving low and at angles is seldom used but is of great advantage.Sorry to see Rookie at this level as a player, I believe it's more a condition issue than age.

I gotta love Herman. Lol

Great camera work, angles, slomo’s, replays 🙌🏻👌🏻

[@TensFinest]

Thank you so much 🔵👋❤️ I really appreciate your comment

[@DJQuan718]

I swear aging sucks sad to see Rook get left under 10
Good game by Tavo tho

[@abiansacks6622]

haha

[@alejandropreciado1814]

He moves great still. We all k know what a prime rookie would do to tavo...

[@DJQuan718]

@@alejandropreciado1814 Rook is still able to beat alot of players in singles but it's tough to beat guys like Tavo and Timbo now. In his prime Rook is leaving Tavo under 10

[@papasmurf3569]

People tend to forget rookie already under 10 tavo before when he first became a A player ten years ago tavo just starting beating rookie in tourneys consistently

[@ricardomontablan7443]

Top level one wall is a young mans game, Durso knew when he hit 50 it was game over. Trick is to know this and enjoy playing with your peers and play some doubles too.

[@86mustanggt]

I was hoping for a come back like Rookie did years ago against Justin.

The replay action on these videos is fire. 🔥
What kind of phone are you using Tensfinest? Or is that the editing software from the phone?

[@NySuperFly989]

This replay system is dope! You got "PhotoGenuius" beat w that haha Good vid

[@TensFinest]

Thank you so much haha 🔵👋❤️

[@matevosvachyan5494]

Damn, I only started watching rookie play since 06 and from those years to now, I never seen him get left under 10 😔

[@ellington237]

Those same shots are open against all the opponents that Tavo plays, he just has to fight for that position, in front, the way he maintained it against Rookie almost the entire game

[@jasonb2916]

Rookie has such an unorthodox style of playing.

Called arthritis

[@abiansacks6622]

point @ 10:34 good stuff

[@marcouzumaki7819]

This is how you beat the rookie of today? Serve him out the court and angle it opposite way. Don’t do it every volley it’s obvious he would catch on but what I’m trying to say is just to angle the shots away from rook every volley. Make him chase the ball

[@joechrow8341]

Prime to Prime...Rook 21 Tavo 6.....

[@marvinescott4575]

Absolutely

[@donmike2810]

No one touches prime Rook

[@joechrow8341]

@@donmike2810 He had the whole package...But some dont know just how good Buddy really was in his prime with the Blue ball...Watched him completely CRUSH Rook and Emmit in a singles Tourny while they were both in Prime...Buddy was Unbelievable

[@robbynines2445]

it looks like rookie threw this game

[@marcouzumaki7819]

Robby Nines I think your half right. I think he threw the game because he didn’t have the energy or stamina to beat tavo

[@christianguzman6510]

I thought that was a girl...this dudes dressing so tight be confusing ppl
