Challenger Analysis, Patrick:

Serving dirty

-

-

The serve. Elegant. Powerful. And at every time and for reverting the same technique.

Patrick: lol no

As mentioned in the movie, he only plays like he wants, in his own style since teen. While every player has a unique sense of motion, as every human has, their serve looks similar.

It’s like walking. Nobody cares about your walking unless you’d have a very different kind.

That’s the thing with Patrick. Normally, you start low, tossing the ball far above the head and then raising the racket behind the head, unleashing a powerful move up to 200km/h.

Not Patrick. It’s as if he slaps tennis history itself with his serve starting with his arm above the head, making it worse with the constant wiggle. And he enjoys every second. Patrick did tennis serve so dirty.

Just to make his statement:

He wants to provoke,

he wants to be special,

he doesn’t want to submit to the rules.

Just being cocky, even after Tashi told him he still plays like in his early days, still relaying on his natural talent instead of classical training and improving his technique.

So, what‘s his point?

playing tennis & being poor instead of working for his rich parents & being rich = his own serve instead of the classical, normed serve

not changing his serve to the common one= not changing (still not over Art/tashi), also being stubborn and cocky as he his with his dirty smirk

I hope you liked it!

Challengers, Art Donaldson:

Tennis Analysis

-> One handed backhand

Left : Mr. Roger Federer

Right: Mike Faist as Art Donaldson

An one handed backhand is one of the harder techniques. It requires more power as you use just one arm, more training and is also considered as more dynamic.

Roger Federer is THE man of the one handed backhand, popular for the slice of his ball and called the “perfect tennis player” due to his elegance on court.

Art Donaldson, coached by non other than Tashi, who works with discipline and perfection as seen in the beginning, also uses one hand to strike. Tashi tries her best everyday to form the perfect tennis pro out of Art.

(She did great. In his early match against Patrick, he also used one hand to stabilize not able to use the extra reach and elegance of this technique)

So what’s the deal?

Shows his discipline through the years of training

the elegance (Roger Federer reference) only a true pro has

Trying to compensate his arm reach & agility (even though his food work is bomb)
