Hitting the full throttle Pure Drive type of serve is more hit or miss with the Ntour 105, but topspin (and any other spin serve) is VERY reliable.

I can't believe there isn't more love for the Ntour 105. It's definitely not a players racquet, but for a tweener it's tough to beat. It gives you the accuracy of a mid, but the more generous...

Best 102" - 105" tweener?

I own the 300 and like it overall. The problem is unless I string it to 65, it has too much power to keep my ground strokes in. After the tension drops a few pounds, I have to restring it again. ...

Henman hasn't played any of the top players so far - which is the only reason he's gone this far. It's been as tough on him as Bush's stint in the national guard.

Is it just me, or has Henman had a creampuff draw? Must be to keep all those Brits tuned in to the bitter end.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to Hewitt/Federer. Hewitt has a real chance.
