    Will there be an unexpected French Open winner in 2024?

    Hasn't Tommy Paul also won RG as a junior? On form he can be a dangerous contender as we saw at Indian Wells.

    Mariano Navone racquet?

    Crazy specs. Can't even think of a racquet that comes close to it in terms of the specs

    Played again today and came to the conclusion that the Blade 98 v5 18x20 just isn't for me. I just can't get the ball deep with spin which is probably due to my technique. I tried leather grips, different strings and tensions. Big shame as I wanted it to like the racquet. Good thing is that the...

    How can Sinner become more popular?

    Finger behind the ear after winning a point Argue more with umpires Pick fights with random fans Random tweeners and underarm serves

    Well the spin was really significant. It could be due to a higher launch angle, but I could really see the ball bouncing way higher than any other racquets I used. My hitting partner noticed it too

    I played with a Prestige Tour 360+ (18x19) lately with a leather grip and that racquet gave so much more spin than all the other ones I tried, even higher than the FX500 Tour which is a 16x19. You think that racquet is about 6 points HL or not? It played pretty good on the first time I tried it...

    Why is it so difficult to just play with one racquet. I recently bought some Blade 98's V5 and after using them for the first time I played really well. Forehands were really good, but after a few months I don't have the same feeling on my forehand anymore and my service has also plummeted. I...

    Could Rune be next for Ivanisevic?

    Could see it happening, but I don't know if Goran want's to coach Rune when he knows he can be sacked at any time if Rune loses 3 matches in a row. Maybe Goran wants to coach someone like Dino Prizmic if he gets some more ATP point. Same country so that could help

    Matches that ruined players

    Yep. Terrible to see as a Dutchie. Guy has some mental problems which hold him back. I think he should talk to a sport psychologist

    Matches that ruined players

    Botic vs Rune Munich 2023. Kicked something after that match as well which injured him.

    Blade and Shift Roland Garros 2024

    The new paintjobs look pretty cool on these racquets. Wonder when they will be announced

    Players that give no rhythm

    You see him as a player who gives no rythym? I see him more as a player who keep on hitting deep. I agree that a player who doesn't give rythym plays with a lot of power on some shots but then is able to hit a dropshot on the next point

    Players that give no rhythm

    Tommy Paul said before his match against Ruud that he wanted to give Ruud as little rhythm as possible. A player who does this regularly is Bublik, but are there more players with a play style like this or are we really in a era in which everyone just hits hard from the baseline?

    Zverev/Tsitsipas: Who’s got the bigger chance of winning a slam?

    I know that, but doesn't a racquet get mofe clunky if it gets a bigger head size. Maybe he should just start learning a 2HB. Only way to get a GS

    What are you currently working on?

    Finding a forehand takeback that works. I have a bit of a Sinner esque takeback where my strings face the back fence before hitting, but the ball goes about 2cm over the net which is really risky. Trying if I get more depth using different takebacks

    Tommy Paul hitting some heavy balls

    Played a really good tournament here. Looking forward to seeing him play on clay as he is a junior RG winner.

    POLL: Rafa fans & non haters - how likely is it he plays during the clay season?

    The fact he put on his Instagram stories that he is playing on clay makes me think that he is targeting a comeback at probably Barcelona. I reckon it will be Madrid, Barcelona, RG and Olympics. A retirement will probably be next unless he wins some tournaments and gets the idea he can compete...

    Cracked or not?

    Well thats not good news. Hope it doesn't break while stringing

    Cracked or not?

    Could very well be. Just noticed my other Blade 2015 has a similair line on the same place

    Great. Thanks

    Cracked or not?

    Yep. Got two of them for €60 in total, so a pretty good deal. Might just keep this one in the bag and use the other just to be sure haha
