Because many of the guys he's been playing lately would still be able to smack that ball deep into a courner. Standing on the baseline is always risky at the top level.

@farood5 You got it. I really enjoy this type of instruction. More to come for sure.

I think that was excellent anticipation by Ito and poor execution by tomic.

tomic should have gone down the line not allowing wide open court.

@ucharecords Right. I think Tomic felt he had to guess BUT down the line would have kept the ball in front of him where he could've cut down the angles a little better.

Sometimes we have to guess what our opponent is about to guess ...
