Last week, I played a guy I am very even with. We had not played in over a year. This time, he thrashed me.
Did he have a great day? Did I have a bad day? Have I lost my game? Has he reached a new level? All of the above? Who knows?
I did not dwell on it, and did not read deeply into it, besides identifying a shot I need to drill again.
If he raised his level, I was genuinely happy for him.
This week, we played again, and the score line was reversed. I beat him by the same score as he beat me.
I did nothing differently. Neither did he. Little changes in a week except randomness and distribution.
Tennis can seem crazy!
Let's hear your experiences with significant short term reversals, how you dealt with it, and what you attribute that to.
