James Blake suffers another thrashing defeat
Luck also goes side by side with hard work because luck always plays a significant role in each and every aspect of life. In the world of sports a good luck sign is always needed and required when it comes to winning and losing. A very talented player James Black does not seem to have luck favouring him and his career seems no less than a burden for him these days.
Despite of being immensely talented James Blake is still unable to perform and deliver; his ranking has been facing a constant downfall, Blake has been facing a continuous problem with his serves and the current bad form of Blake is making him more frustrated and angry which is definitely not a good sign at all. It seems that the American tennis ace has lost all the charm for the game after getting thrashed in the first round of the tournament for the sixth time.
James is currently at the 117th spot of the ATP (Association of Tennis Professionals) tennis ranking. Just one year ago the 30 year old American Tennis player was considered as one of the best tennis players from America but these days all of his efforts are going in vain.
In his most recent match against Ryan Sweeting, Blake tried his best but all of his efforts did not pay off well. His serves were poor and inconsistent and he missed all the break point chances. After the match he was asked by the media about his current situation and his retirement from the tennis world. James Blake expressed his thoughts in sheer disappointment and said that he is very upset with the way he is performing these days. Blake seemed very uneasy and down while talking about his poor form. Later, he added that he is not happy with the rest and everything regarding his career is making him uneasy, eager and frustrated.
He said it is a very hard time for him as he wants to win everything in life but his bad luck is making him more disturbed and numb. Blake admitted that it is not the end of his career as he still wants to play more and will try his level best to improve his form as soon as possible.
It is to be remembered that James Blake is considered as one of the best forehand players in tennis. His style of playing is aggressive and he has the capability of crushing any opponent but these days he is missing the right winning chemistry. His career’s highest ranking was 4th in the world in 2006 which is a very vivid proof of his ability and calibre. He has been facing problems with his form but his strong will and determination will surely help him grab the perfect winning form back.
His recent defeat from Ryan Sweeting by 3-6, 6-3, 6-4 in Washington D.C at Legg Mason Classic has definitely demoralized him but players like James Blake can never be considered out of the game. This American tennis ace is struggling hard to get his lost glory and hard work is the only key to his success. Blake has won just 7 matches out of his recent 17 matches. His defeat against Robin Haase at the Wimbledon was not less than a sudden shock of embarrassment for him.
The recent defeat has put a question mark over James Blake career. His future form will lead us to understand whether he will keep struggling to get back to the winning track or not. We can only wish this struggling star good luck because it is probably the right time for him to gain what he has lost in the tennis court. Considering James Blake’s bad form it is not difficult to assume that the glory of this tennis player might fade forever.
