They were both playing very well! And I think the guy in black is not a pusher. I would call him more of a counter puncher/baseliner who has a smart change of pace. His strokes especially his backhand is too strong to be a pusher. Good video!
If someone ever asks me "How good are/were you (broken down Sr bracket now) I'm going point at white shirt(your bro). This match is me vs an ex small college non scholarship #5 guy before he had kids and put on 20 lbs. When he was fit I could not get through his defense and his counter-punch would overwhelm my net game. This is what playoff caliber 4.0 ball looks like. Sectionals would feature black shirt and up.
Lawrence is playing again? Thats cool. Tough loss for my team that night. It's good to see people that played back in juniors playing competitively again.
@@lawrencechang3783 ya mainly saw your brother Jonathan at the various tournaments since we progressed to supers at same age levels. Your dad and my dad always got along while at the tournys. Seems so long ago haha. Glad you picked the sport back up and playing well!
I think I've been struggling with nerves. I'll definitely start focussing on deeper breathing. I think my main fear is being in a position where the match is on my serve and I get so nervous I double fault to lose the match. I know that's happened to every player out there. Even Djoker. He double faulted the final of a French Open against Nadal about 10 years ago. But I think you need to get out of the mindset to try not to mess up rather than to be locked in to win the point. Anyway, good video.
It's cliche but in addition to deeper breathing, you can try to focus on the present. If you're worried about a double fault, start that game with a faster 2nd serve as a 1st serve to make yourself more comfortable. If you're feeling good, you can hit a regular first serve on the 2nd point of the game. Yes, find a way that works for you! Thanks for watching!
Yeah, it's funny, you can see the silhouette of Changbang's compact strokes there, ready to handle Soderling forehands and Isner serves, and then his opponent is looping in 4.0 balls.
Your brother is very good. I'm interested to know why you progressed to such a higher level when he grew up with the same genetics and opportunities as you.
Thanks! I have a heart condition so I only played tennis for a few months in juniors. Picked up tennis again after college after new medical technology came out.
Great match. Your brother did well 👏 Though I don't think it was 4.0 NTRP at keast 4.5 NTRP I guess. Your brother's opponent has a great footwork (5.0 NTRP one). But your brother's serve is defenitely 5.0 ntrp level. Good coaching from yoy 🎉
Thanks. I’m never sure who wants to watch highlights versus full match so I thought a shorter video would be better. I’ll see if I have the full match for you.
This is one of the better 4.0 matches i’ve seen! great playing from your brother
Thanks!
Appreciate it! Thank you!

Good video!
Yeah sorry, you’re right! I meant counter puncher. Thanks for watching!
I am really impressed how the black shirt player kept his balance with every strokes. Decent 4.0 match! Appreciate to both players!
Thanks!
Thanks for watching! Black shirt’s fast!
Black shirt is a really good counterpuncher and he moves really well, your bro did a great job playing so patiently on the long points
Great match!
Both players are very strong for 4.0!
Thanks!
Yes!
way to close it out Tennis Dad! he was a steady and fit pusher so kudos for grinding out the win!
Thank you! :)
Thank you for doing this video.
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the inspiration. You guys are younger than me, but I do need to try my first USTA league as well.
You can do it! Thanks for watching!

like your illustration
Great job to your bro! Man my ocd of seeing that ball lying there at 40-15 would have driven me nuts and I would have for sure lost the point haha.
Thanks! Haha same!
The level of this match is oretty high, closer to 4.5 than 4.0 IMO the only thing really missing is the ability put balls away at the net
Thanks! I avoid the net at all costs.
Yep, off the ground they could hang with low tier 4.5's but white shirt is too slow and neither showed off 4.5 level net skills.
that definitely feels like 4.5 play
It was solid!
I was also going to say is the guy in the black shirt is a counter puncher! Congrats to your brother on his win!
Thanks!
My bad, I meant counter puncher. Thanks for watching!
does your brother use a eastern or modified eastern forehand grip? it looks different from your grip
I don’t know tbh… I feel he hits a little flatter than I do.
Yay Tennis Dad!
Thanks for the support!
Who knew he could play 👀

Sorry, not sure I remember you, but I only played 2 ZAT tournaments growing up. Never even made it to champs :(.

Definitely would've paid some good money to watch tennis dad live
Glad I am entertaining to watch!
You’re welcome.
Your brother' strokes have nice easy tempo and pace!
Yeah, it's funny, you can see the silhouette of Changbang's compact strokes there, ready to handle Soderling forehands and Isner serves, and then his opponent is looping in 4.0 balls.
Thanks!
Excellent composure to recover in the beginning. His backhand is 5.0 until he takes his left-hand off; then 2.5
Haha, yes, but my slice is not too good either.
Hahaha. Thanks for watching!

Gg Chang bro congrats
Thanks!

Thanks for watching. I like to take some credit for his serve. You can watch my serving tutorial if you haven't already :)
Great game! What racquet is your brother using here?
Thank you for watching! He is using my old Head Prestige 16x19. The model is from around 2016.
what's his training like since he has a full time job?
He plays a few times a week. Mostly on the weekends. Some weekdays he will workout a little. He plays Thursday league during the season.
why does ur brother have the exact same strokes as u lmao
lolll i guess it's because we're twins?
awesome match, would you please not cut out points?
Thanks. I’m never sure who wants to watch highlights versus full match so I thought a shorter video would be better. I’ll see if I have the full match for you.
Are you his coach??
He gives me tips from time to time.
@@lawrencechang3783 ah I see.
wow, this is like a soap opera. next year, he tells us he was adopted by Angela Jolie and Brad Pitt.
Lmao
LOL!!!
If he is more of a 4.5, he is sandbagger and hopefully he get's dq'd. If he played college he is a 4.5. If not he can be 4.0.
Didn't play college or high school. I would say I'm a 4.5 indoors, but outdoors is a different game!
This is 2.5 at best. Here where I play, any of the 3.5s on our team would easily destroy these two players
Yeah clearly they're beginners /s
I don't think this kinda clickbait comment will drive any more traffic to your channel, but I guess it was worth a shot.
