Okay, so I’ve been messing around with this thing called the Fernandez score lately. It’s a way to kinda grade how well someone is doing, especially in tennis, but you could probably use it for other stuff too. Let me tell you how I got into it and what I’ve been up to.
It all started when I was watching a tennis match with my buddy. We were arguing about who was playing better, and it wasn’t just about who was winning more points. We were talking about style, effort, and all that jazz. That’s when he mentioned this Fernandez score thing. I got curious, so I did what anyone would do – I hit up the internet.
Turns out, figuring out how to keep track of a game, especially scoring can be a little tricky. I dug through a bunch of articles and videos. Some were super complicated, full of jargon I didn’t get. But I found a few that were pretty straightforward. They talked about how the Fernandez score isn’t just about points, but also about how you play the game – your strategy, your hustle, how you handle pressure.
I started by trying it out with some of my own tennis games. It was a bit messy at first. I had to watch how I serve, then how I keep scores. I made this little checklist for myself:
- Serve: Was it powerful? Accurate? Did I mix it up?
- Return: Was I aggressive? Did I make my opponent move?
- Rally: How long could I keep the ball in play? Did I go for winners?
- Defense: Could I get to tough shots? Did I give up easily?
- Mentality: Did I stay focused? Did I get frustrated?
I gave myself points for each of these things after every game. At first I was just doing 1, 2, or 3. It was kind of like rating myself on each aspect. Then, I added up the scores to get a total Fernandez score for the game.
After a few weeks, I started noticing patterns. Like, I realized my serve was pretty good, but my defense needed work. When I got tired, I’d start making dumb mistakes. The Fernandez score was showing me where I was strong and where I was weak, not just in terms of points, but in the way I played.
I even started using it when I watched pro matches. It made watching way more interesting. I could see how the players adapted, how they handled different situations. It wasn’t just about who won, but how they played the game.
I tried to explain it to my friend, we use it to improve our tennis game. It was kind of fun, actually. We’d give each other feedback based on the score. It wasn’t about being mean or critical, but about helping each other get better.
My Conclusion
This Fernandez score thing is pretty cool. It’s not perfect, and it’s definitely subjective, but it gives you a different way to look at a game. It’s about more than just winning or losing. It’s about how you play, and that’s what makes it interesting to me.
I’m still messing around with it, trying to refine my system. Maybe I’ll even make an app for it someday, who knows? But for now, it’s just a fun way for me to track my progress and get a little bit better at tennis.
