Facing The ATP World Number
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 жов 2023
- Today I test myself against Billy Harris , who is currently ranked world number 282. Of course this is just a practice set and billy could only slice as he had a challenger coming up so don't take the result of the set as an indicator of the tennis level , but I hope nevertheless you enjoy!

Even though Billy couldn't play at 100% this match really does indicate your growth as a player, you stayed mentally tough despite missing those opportunities at 5-3 and 5-4 and overall played a pretty high standard, keep grinding. 💪
Good job Felix, I really like to see you make points when it matters most .
It is insanely sad that just to be a professional tennis player one needs mad skills, yet has to struggle so much financially…
Djokovic is looking into this problem...In all honesty, i don’t see why people pursue this career in the first place.
So much risk regarding injuries, as the game pleads for incredible overall endurance, fitness and luck in order to stay fit and healthy. Avoiding injuries is very hard and commanding.
Aside from this huge issue, you need bunch of money in order to even consider pursuing going pro.
So all in all, this game is very unforgiving and weird with how complicated the pro tour is.
@@stfustfu7765 The ATP has released their safety net programme, designed to guarantee a certain income level for the top 200 IIRC. However, they’re also deleting a bunch of 250 tournaments from 2025 which is a step in the wrong direction…
Because its fun. Theres no rush like playing a tennis match (or any sport) and hitting crazy shots and making it really physical. Tons of adrenaline and there just arent feelings like it. Sure, why not pursue another sport, but if you're good at something, then you're good at something. The unfortunate reality is that unless you're able to be in the small minority who get to play main draws at slams, you won't have a very fruitful career, and then what are you left with? Coaching skills? It's brutal but I totally understand why people pursue it@@stfustfu7765
@@stfustfu7765 Yes, whilst Federer and Nadal support the ATP lmao. Amazing how people think that they are the nice guys and Djokovic is the bad guy when Federer and Nadal are actively trying to stop tennis players from getting paid more.
@@stfustfu7765 they do it because they love it.
Rematch for sure. Fantastic match, Felix. Strokes look really natural and fluid
Improved greatly since your last match against billy, keep improving!
Wonderful content as always. Billy is on a roll now and is one to watch for sure! Great tennis! Your level have improved so much this year, Felix!
Fabulous interview with Tennis Nerd. You make sooooo many good points about the state of the game and how it could be improved. Really impressed by your knowledge, insight and ideas.
Great video and again, love your analysis and wish you all the very best Felix! Your page is inspiring for me as I guide my young son through his tennis journey 😀
just incredible to see you improving, fantastic technique, loved it, keep it up!
Wow getting to watch Karue and Felix's new videos on the same day is pretty nice!
Great result... also great insight on the grind of the tour..
you often compliment other players' serve yet you yourself have a fantastic serve motion, better than most of your opponents!! Great Stuff :)
Some great points in that match! Really good video.
Good luck Billy Harris- I hope you make ATP100
Living our dream out there man
He just beat Bautista Agut damn, now all players want to be in your video for luck😂
W FELIX, videos keep getting better it’s incredible, and dont get me wrong the tennis is following the videos
It’s amazing how you can beat someone that destroyed you a couple months ago. It really shows how much you have improved, if it keeps going like this we might be watching the road to one grand slam title
To be fair he only sliced he’s backhand and was definitely not trying most of the time
Yea felix has improved a lot since his latch match but I dont think their even close to the same calibir yet. He only sliced the backhands and seemed to not being very serious. While felix was playing like a real match and still went to a tie break.
Grand slam? Lmfao
@RH_Core chill out a win is a win.
@@Codabcul09 bro felix himself in the description said dont take it as an indicator of a tennis level
Way to get the set w that ace there! Awesome!
Your serves are really good and hard keep up the good work
Very very very very impressive. Did I say very impressive?
You've come along way and there is a ton still left in your abilities.
Well done ma man.
Cheers!

Let’s go buddy let’s put some hard work in come on. Mamba mentality!
FELIX THE LEGEND
I always say, the men and women in the top thousand are all so good. Some better than others, but they are all amazing athletes, and all play so well. Enjoyed the video. Thank you.
Great practise set Felix and win against a very high calibre player! If you can tske this form into your futures tournaments then top 1000 isn't far away!
Well definitely look forward to the rematch.
Amazing video thanks 👍
Great video 👏🏼 bring back the sleeve lol 🔥
Felix one thing i was telling you at your self believe more stronger than when your opponent was known your weakness so still positive for your self believe and beat the opponent
I think he played Josh Berry (a comedian/impersonator) on All Things Tennis channel a while back?
Good memory, yes Billy did
Amazing match!!
Hey Felix lots of luck in Glasgow tomorrow ❤❤
Here we go 🔥
Well done 👍
Saw Billy at Tennyson Brisbane International a few days ago. He must have been a hitter and he will be competing in AO Qualifying Draw
If you play him again ask him about the money that he makes on the challenger tour. Or maybe even make a full video talking about the costs of the tour and the prize money
I think Billy's best shot is his double handed backhand. A loss of a big weapon for Billy, but an entertaining practice set nevertheless.
I think you should play the US Open Qualifying. pretty sure you will have a large crowd to watch you here in the USA.
What do you think about the nike vapor pro 2.
SUPA FELIX
What a nice camera angle, don't get a chance to see this on TV.
Youve got it
What was that handshake at the end?😂
Djokovic v Shelton like?
keep improving
Duuuuude ! Just the fact that you can go toe to toe with this athlete, although in a diminished way, if a great sign for the future ! KEEP IT UP ! GOGO !💪
Maybe it's just me, but I thought your serve was better than Billy's? With him only hitting slice, he's limited, and the outcome would have been different, sure. But still, it was an interesting match. And you can maybe pick up on some other areas where you can improve too. I'm curious to know what YOU think of the matchup, and where you might want to change anything. I'd also be interested to hear what Ash might see in the match.
who is your favourite tennis player
There's still a lot of room for improvement until you can win an ATP 250 event considering this is a practice match you need to be more critical under pressure and at 5-2 40-0 you were too close to the net for the smash, but good effort and you got the W so well done
How fast do u serve? 😮
Cool
mans boutta beat bautista agut or what?? lets go billy
quality
well, he just beat Bautista Agut, so the use of backhand slice was worth it!
Sad thing is unless you're in the top 150 or so, you can't make a decent living as a tennis pro. Ranked 282 you are probably losing money.
You said for the rematch with tennis hq and you didnt play him again
😮
Why they take all the time taxes from won money and not after all the earning minus expenses are balanced like it is done in any other type of business?
content trickle
I don't understand. Didn't have make it to the 3rd round of Wimbledon qualifying? He should've won $36,000 pounds for making that round, no? How's that Challenger final the biggest score of his career?
Of course I wanna have a re match!
1/8000 likes 👍👍👍
first
lol, he didnt even try to return your serves and you press your fist
Wow, that was great. You stayed humble too, which is great to see. Felix, you're hot! Will you marry me? ♥
I think Billy agreed to only slice as a handicap for Felix. I don't think he was saving it for the match, I think Felix is just saying that to save face. I would like to see Felix play him normal and if you lose, so be it. If you lose with someone playing with such a severe handicap, it makes you feel more defeated and if you win, you feel bad because you had to win when someone wasn't at their full potential. I would never play anyone with a handicap as it makes you feel bad either way. You need to just play someone at full strength, win or lose it's worth the learning experience. You won't get better if someone disables their game for you. That is just pity.
that makes no sense. why wouldnt felix wanna play him normally if he could? clearly his opponent sliced for his own sake
@@Andreabay90 Because he got destroyed by him their first encounter and he wanted to have a chance. Winston Du has similar handicap sets, it's not uncommon for players intentionally trying to balance out skill level. I'm not bad mouthing Felix, but just an honest assessment. I do like Felix, but I want to see him level up and playing people with a handicap isn't going to help you do that.
The thing is Billy Harris also mostly slices in his matches. If you've watched him in a pro match, you'd know that's one of his biggest weapons and allows him to set up his net rushes, volleys. It's as much as a handicap as playing against Dimitrov or Evans and they're only allowed to slices
Not that severe of a handicap, I’m a 9 utr I played my friend who is an 8 in a match I had a huge blister on my left palm so I could only slice, I won 6-4 6-4. Once the blister recovered we played again when I could hit my two hander and I won the match the same score, 6-4 6-4. So this “severe” handicap you’re talking about doesn’t necessarily even change the outcome of a match or a set.
On the same note, I do agree with you that the opponent is better than Felix, the rankings don’t lie.
Hello (Can I get a Pin)
Nein
Bruh
Uhmm why can he only slice. His injury is not your issue. That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard to save your arm. That's a 30 yrs ago mentality w an injury
A win is a win… guys can make excuses all they want… Billy lost. FYI that whole “saving his wrist” thing is a built in excuse in case he lost… Rafa, Novak, or Fed would just play…
Great tennis felix
Keep it up and let’s keep racking up those atp points
