G.O.A.T.
Of course no one likes losing, but how do you prefer it?
Getting blasted off the court by a superior player? A pro side of this is that mentally you can tell yourself "well nothing I could do, he was just better." A con is that nobody wants to get destroyed.
Self-destructing with UE's and handing over the match? A pro of this is that you can tell yourself "match was still on my racquet," but a con is that it is incredibly frustrating to make errors and lose because of it.
Playing well but choking? Pro: You played well and got to the finish line but just couldn't quite do it. Con: It's choking! You were so close! You had it!
Or more specifically, how do you prefer the last point to go in a loss? Would you rather see an ace go past you for the loss because all you can do is shrug your shoulders and say nicely done? Or would you rather have a chance in the rally to save yourself, but lose it with an error?
