    Have any pros worked jobs, other than playing pro tennis?

    Is that really Ana Ivanovic's blog?

    I think what usually happens is the pros write out their blog in their most comfortable language, then someone from PR translates (edits, adds proper grammar, adds impressive words...and so on) the thing to make it sound at least half decent. Or, the pro just verbally tells the PR guy what to...

    Complete list of prize money for the open...?

    Hey, Does anyone have a complete list of prize money for the US open...mens? First round losers to champion...? I was thinking for a guy like Ben Becker, this result has to at least equal his winnings to this day for the year, no? Thanks.

    What the hell is going on with Coria???

    Come clay season you will hear more of him. I think his problem is within himself mentally...some people just don't have what it takes to win at a professional level even with an abundance of talent.

    Adidas Barricade IV Men's Shoes White/Blue...look better in person?

    Really? This is the first I have heard of this. Do you do an excessive toe drag, has this been a problem in the past for you? Anyone else have this problem with the 4's?

    Adidas Barricade IV Men's Shoes White/Blue...look better in person?

    Does this color look less "girly" in person? Something about it screams womens shoe to me...yet I still like it better than any other color TW has in stock. Any feedback appreciated. Thanks.

    stringing ???

    I agree, I thought he was strictly talking about immediatley after stringing, not after hitting. Sorry for the wrong info...

    stringing ???

    Usually it depends on the type of stringer and the method you are using. However, I would say 2-4 lbs. is more reasonable.

    03 white compared to 03 tour

    Hello, Has anyone hit with these racquets or know enough to be able to compare them? It seems like the white is a tad more powerful and obviously heavier. If anyone has feedback on the white especially, let me know as I am very interested to see how it plays. Thanks.

    Did I just buy a fake racket?

    I don't see any advantage in making a "fake racquet". Although, not every racquet is made the same, weigh them and if they are noticeably different, ask the store about them.

    Staying with the same racquet

    Hello, To be honest, it depends on where your game is. While most of us here go through racquets like cans of coca cola, it really is important not to change racquets too frequently. Changing racquets should be a thought out process....not just something you come up with in your head one day...

    Returns

    Hello, Unfortunatley, you would not only have to pay for shipping back but would also not be credited for the string purchase as well as the original shipping costs. For example, if you bought a racquet for $160, added on Prince synthetic gut for another $4 and shipping for $8, your total...
