💭 TAKEAWAYS
What went well
1) Aggressiveness paid off
I managed to take my chances and stay aggressive throughout the match, and although I did make some unforced errors, I primed myself to be in a position where I was ready to be on the offense whenever I had the chance
What to work on
1) Composure & Decision Making
Although I was hitting very relaxed and was aggressive I think I could have done better to make better choices and stay more composed to bring down my error count

Hi everyone! 👋🏻 welcome to the channel, this is Marcus your Asian Tennis Boy
I’m a full-time musician and part-time tennis aficionado
Background:
I learnt the basics of tennis when I was 10, but didn’t start playing more until October 2021 thanks to the Rovo app which I used to find games; I started playing tennis once a month, once a fortnight, once a week, and as of July 2022 I was playing at least 4-5 times a week.
Objectives:
My current level is a solid 3.5 to 4.0 and my goal is to work towards 4.5 by 2025

Nice video !!! I had fun playing with Alan too. His double BH is very very good !!!

[@AsianTennisBoy]

Thanks bro! Yes his BH is amazing 🙌🏻

[@DonYang73]

M, i hv seen quite many of your videos by now and you do hv the knack for tennis. Your serve mechanics is pretty ok and if you tidy that up a bit with more stability and racket head speed, you would be able to take out many more rec players.

[@AsianTennisBoy]

Thanks a lot Yang! Trying to go up to the next level for sure 🙌🏻

[@nd7434]
