DT is also posting in the Adults League section with stuff like this:

Instead of giving the player the benefit of the doubt on a close call I will call them out in important matches.

I will try to upset my opponent by upsetting his rhythm, intimidating him with my intensity and determination to win.

I will use any form of gamesmanship within reason I can to win.

I guess he's reasoning that he might as well go out in a burst of flames, at least until he comes back under another username.
 
I am not sure the OP has been completely honest. The 5.5 and 6.0 level of men's tennis is such a high level it is hard to find players. Also, I don't think a player in such a game would be surprised at how aggressively they attack the net. Topspin posted a video claiming it was the OP serving. I have spent hundreds of hours studying the serve and compared the video to a 5.0 player with a less than average serve. There is no way someone with that serve can play with 5.0 players, let alone 5.5. That is a 3.5 serve.
 
Coaching32yrs, OP is a known troll. You've made some good points in this thread but I wouldn't bother with the OP let alone take him seriously

I am not that guy in the video. What can I say, I am willing to prove I play at that level but I wont reveal my identity.

The only way I can think of proving it is by mentioning info about players that is not on the internet and I would only know from playing them. Somebody here will need to however know these players or colleges to confirm that what I am saying is true.

Maybe Ash_Smith knows about British University Tennis?

No, have not got a clue what that is. I know about the main strong universities and the guys I have played against/ seen play.

First answer these questions honestly Ash.
1) Do you think am I am qualified coach?
2) Do you think I play university tennis in a European University?

^^^okay

1) Whilst you clearly have some knowledge of tennis, you may well be a coach in some capacity, although some of your comments lead me to believe this is not the case or you are very new to it.

2)You could, I have no frame of reference other than the video that may be you posted under another username and the fact that you say you do.

I know BUCS league tennis pretty well, but other than that around europe i don't get involved, even though "we" manage the GB university team for the University Games Tennis.

It's very easy. Make a video of yourself hitting. At the beginning or end of the video, speak into the camera and say something like, "I am DefensiveTennis from Talk Tennis." Nothing else aside from revealing your name will work.

Yep, and he wouldn't even have to show his face. He could wear a mask, or try using the youtube face blur tool... it'd be easy to do.

But it won't happen...
