What he said. I can't think of any time in the past that one player can qualify for this description of total dominance across all surfaces in men's tennis at any given time except Novak Djokovic. If he wins the Calendar year Grand Slam his position as the GOAT is confirmed.
I always used to find out the county or city rules beforehand. Often Parks and Rec schedule courts for their programs and HS teams have practice hours that are regular. Outside of those, usually we never had to ask permission from a HS coach.
At a College where I was Coach and Instructor I only used my priority on court usage when we had classes or practice.
It's always best to know your legal position and rights, and it helps to know someone at the county Park and Rec. From my experience, the more rural your location the fewer restrictions you'll have to consider.
His mind is his most essential tool. He uses it to sculpt, discipline, and control his body.
His mind is his center.
How does he do it?--------
He has no wasted motion and no excess baggage in his game or his frame. He looks more fit now than ever, something I didn't see as possible since he's been at this level for a while now. At the same time, he doesn't go into mental collapse during a match. His opponents see this and can't believe it, often making them feel hopeless as he grinds them down. Thus, the Roddick claim that first he goes after your legs and then your soul.
Wow, how things change overnight in sports. The question is, is this a temporary run or do we have a new tennis star?
It seems that the old habit of tennis players back in the '50s-'70s to go out for beer after matches and training wasn't necessarily wrong.
Midday matches in high temps and humidity are never a good idea.
This is probably one of the most important elements of his success.
