Crucial Point & Games | ATP

/in , /by

With Badge starting, here’s a timely reminder that some points are more important than others in match play.

In tennis, the latter stages of any game and any set, especially from the ninth game on wards, are critically important due to the unique scoring structure and the psychological dynamics involved. This phase of the set is pivotal for building or maintaining momentum.

And let’s not forget the drama of tiebreakers!

Here’s the links on the Tennis Whisperer site to cover these key stages and games, ensuring you’re well-prepared for these crucial moments in Badge.
