    How many TW Posters does it take to change a light bulb?

    can't believe no-one mentioned Marius Hancu suggesting some websites to help prevent lightbulb related injuries - seriously thought, Marius' stuff is appreciated

    1.0 Serve?? Really??

    lol - that guy has a nice looking serve! great flexibility in his shoulder, good knee bend - full extension - how could ANYONE think that was a 1.0 serve?? would anyone with a 1.0 serve bother filming it? lmao

    How's this for a training programme?

    i agree that sprinting is good for fast movements on court, but longer distances are also good to gain endurance...so i guess both should be done to an extent my friend played a very high standard and said he used to train 2 hours a day on court plus gym each day when he was in full training...

    How's this for a training programme?

    day two? it's the same each day, except throwing in a run now and then, and doing court drills whenever possible...is this programme going to make me into a machine, or kill me in the process btw?

    How's this for a training programme?

    First Tournament facing number 3 seed....

    hey - unlucky mate - so far, this year, i have lost 2 singles matches out of 18 and 1 doubles match out of 7 - all three losses were 0 and 0 - kinda strange - i guess, i just stand no chance against guys that can really play good luck in winning the consolation!

    Open Level Tournaments (Again)

    i want, firstly, to win matches, go through rounds - obviously, i want to win tournaments, but as i am unlikely to win most things i play, my main objective is to win some matches

    Open Level Tournaments (Again)

    yeah - i know about juniors and unforced errors :-) - i just counterpunch and rarely take an aggressive option, and often beat guys who hit far more winners, and have heavier shots, simply because i hang in the rallys long enough that they make UEs lol i've heard that the easiest way to get to...

    Open Level Tournaments (Again)

    Open Level Tournaments (Again)

    yeah - i plan on playing some next year - i just need to know what's the best to do to get ready for this change...i mean, there are LOADS of juniors that can dismantle my game, and so, i'm guessing the adult division is even stronger...

    Got fever, recommend me playing tomorow?

    just to say - i know i shouldn't have played - but the last few days i've felt absolutely crap, and i've been in bed most of the time, but i had a matchplay event today (2 3 set singles matches against similar level players) and i somehow managed to win both my matches - i was slow, had bad...
