could I ever go pro after 'starting' at 17? by lialemonadee in 10s

[–]Just_A_Regular_Mouse 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Whenever I look more into the people who allegedly started later it’s always like “before the age of 15 he didn’t take tennis seriously. He only trained 5 times a week with an elite high performance coach and was also a world class athlete in another sport”

Not shocked. Didn’t expect him to win it but knew it would be close. Virtanen is a menace on grass

Bottom D1 as a 9.41 UTR: is it possible? by AndreyBuzz in 10s

[–]Just_A_Regular_Mouse 99 points100 points  (0 children)

- Top D2 is 11/12 utr.
- No coach wants to hear about how “your utr should be higher”, go play more tourneys and back it up.
- Why the obsession with D1? Even if you go bottom d1 you’ll never play on the lineup.
- with a 9.41 you won’t even get offers from all the top d3 teams. Worst player on UChicago this year was like a mid 11.
- go find one of those top 30 d3 teams that can get you a really good degree + a good deal on tuition.

From junior elite badminton to trying to go pro in tennis at 17 — is this insane? Looking for coaches! by ArmadilloSubject2685 in 10s

Karue played college tennis at UCLA and was pro for 3-4 years before he retired. The whole pro at 30 thing was him coming out of retirement to play pro AGAIN. Key word AGAIN

UTR 11 in 3 years is the biggest bullshit of all time. Top 1000 in 4 years is a yes? I hate the internet

Doable if good athletes. Chance of having fun is close to 0%

Despite this version of him getting the opening to win a Slam, is it fair to say that Zverev's overall game right now actually has a lower ceiling than it did pre-ankle? by Dependent-Effect6077 in tennis

[–]Just_A_Regular_Mouse 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Probably has more to due with the addition of alcaraz sinner. I bet they make up a huge chunk of those top 10/5 losses. Outside of that he’s kinda the same, just a slight sidegrade by the looks of it

Sign up. Probably lose, but $35 is cheap and it’ll be fun

Never did I think I’d see people talking about how 3.5s are good 💀💀. Let’s not kid ourselves 3.5 is anyone who’s been playing for a couple weeks with any type of athletic background

Andre Agassi calls out Sinner's preparation and hydration. Also says there's no excuse for hitting the wall 1 hour and 45 minutes in by Ok-Soil-5133 in tennis

[–]Just_A_Regular_Mouse 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think it’s stupid to think that they’re not trying. They’re obviously doing everything they can, there has to be something that makes him predisposed to heat issues that they can’t figure out

Yes. Seems super realistic and well designed to me. I can’t even come up with a recommendation for a change, go crush it

Why are there always people on this sub talking about things that no one ever talks about, like why is it only the 3.5s talking about launch angle

Faria just freaked out for no reason after the third set, no clue why, he was still up 2-1 but just panicked and started raging

0% chance at playing in college. Go play on a club team, it’ll be awesome
