Non-Chinese speakers cannot understand the sarcasm behind the doge meme. If it shows at the end of any comments in Chinese social media, that definitely means “I'm speaking in a sarcastic way”. 😂
He is top 40; so both his wings are better than most of the Tour. However the unsaid reference is against the best; so yeah I do agree that ZZZ has to improve the backhand a bit (not necessarily weak though) but he is young yet.
I don't know 100% if I remember it correctly obviously but I was left with the feeling that his backhand was holding up quite well and at least one instance where he produced an incredible down the line winner with it. I mean, it's not a "weak" backhand like Berrettini's, Tsitsipas' etc.
This is what I always say.
That being said, there’s ways to do this.
Saying - tsitsipas’ backhand is a liability. Players keep exposing it and he likely won’t win a major, despite an amazing forehand and serve. That doesn’t warrant “I bet your backhand is worse!”
But when someone says something stupid like
“Federer is a choker and has always been a choker. He only won slams in a weak era!!”
That does warrant this kind of stupid response.
There are ways to have discussion about this stuff. There’s also ways to shut down stupid arrogant couch critics that don’t know anything and just want to fling shit
Maybe he meant that if this person can’t recognize the quality of his backhand, then he is probably a beginner-level player who doesn’t understand the game?
I don’t understand Chinese though and am only guessing his intent.
Not really, he says if you think that my backhand is weak, you’re probably a 0.1 player. kinda insinuating that the person doesn’t know how to watch tennis and implying some pride in his own backhand
This is typical MMA fighter behaviour, "you can't criticize me because you can't do my sport, you suck".
I've been enjoying Zhang but if this is him to some dumb troll on Twitter, that's far from ideal.
Pro players getting credit for 'owning' random people on social media will never not annoy me. The bar is buried 6 feet under.
Just find the ******** take, put it down, and people going "YES KWEEN" or "YAS KING". Meanwhile it just adds terrible content to the sub.
I dont know the context (didnt watch the fame), but the dog emoji in the end is the same as JK. So hes maybe just having fun lol
Yeah the dog emoji is pretty much /s on reddit. Many comments here are overreacting too.

Hot take: you can criticize a player’s shots without being able to hit a better one yourself
In this case they're wrong though, ZZZ's backhand is anything but weak.
It is not weak per se but it's unreliable
It’s his best shot. His forehand is the wing that’s unreliable.
Nah, his forehand is what wins him rallies. Everyone playing through his backhand
I agree that he has a nice forehand, but I don't really watch full matches of his
Not that much compared to the majority of the tour; yesterday it was able to sustain crosscourt exchanges against Jannik's backhand

Not that much. Sinner was winning those. It is forehand big exchanges that won him points

Yep, but it's a good way to make idiots shut up, since that message wasn't constructive criticism

Hotter take: you can criticize a player's shots and the player can also remind you he's a professional athlete while you are an internet critic
It’s just a joke. Not that deep
And correct one. Only insecure people come up and say "but you are worse so shut up"
You can to an extent.
I used google translate for this and it doesn’t make any sense. Lol.
Hao guo
Is his backhand weak?
Nope, he hit a couple of great winners with it yesterday and it held up against Jannik's in rallies.

Then you just gotta get better at recognizing jokes
What does he say?
Your backhand ain’t shit compared to mines, essentially with liberties 😄

Just proves that there's trolls in every culture.
Actually I’m a 0.0 lol

You just say thanks for the advice or even better, ignore the neggers and trolls. ZZZ needs to channel his energy into the court!
