Chanson Pak's stats are unreal for a player at his level. 4.0 level players are better than that. This guy got missed in the system his first self rate 4.0 year and has reaped the rewards by winning easily with no penalty. Goes to show how much the computer rating will protect you.

I am 27-3 on the season in singles and 24-2 in mixed doubles at my 3.5 level. I am however playing up and only 2-6 in singles and 5-1 in mixed 4.0.

I love #2. That's the best one on here so far.

Won my 3.0 match 6-0, 6-1. Won my 3.5 match 6-1, 6-2 and lost my 4.0 match 6-0, 6-2. So I figure I will try again next week. Certainly a different experience at ea. level. I just wished I wouldn't have signed up to play 3.0 again. But I figured it would be my last year since the...

Right-Handed: Hardest serve is a flat serve to the duece court that is wide to a right handers FH.

I can tell you what I do.....But that by no means makes it correct. When serving to the ad site, I do the following: FOOTWORK: I am my left foot at the net pole on the right side PLACEMENT: If I want the serve to go down the middle, I make sure my toss is more in front of...

My best advice is to hit the **** out of it in the upward angle to increase the kick. My second piece of advice is to find a gym where you can work on your back muscles. Develop the lower back, shoulders and upper back......The kick serve does take alot out of you physically with the twist...

Ive experimented with both styles of backhands. I am 27 and was taught the 2hbh as a child, then developed the one hand backhand during a broke forearm season. Now, I hit the 1hbh when I want to hit a winner and a 2hbh when I want to use placement. I still use the 1hbh for my drop...

good STUFF!!! THANKS

My Tri-Cities is in Eastern Tennessee. As much as I would like to be friends...we are miles apart.

I need a chart for matches that shows the FH/BH winners and errors, ect. Anyone out there have a good one?

In my area I have noticed that my slice serve is much more effective indoors or on clay. When I get outdoors, its' more of a placement serve rather than a weapon. Could be an idea place to start looking

YOUR THE REASON TENNIS RATING IN THE USTA SYSTEM IS A JOKE. IF YOUR PLAYERS ARE TOO DAMNED SCARED TO STEP UP AND PLAY SOME REAL COMPETITION, THEN THAT'S YOUR OWN DISHONESTY WITH YOURSELF. YOU WON'T GET ANY SYMPATHY FROM ME OR ANYONE ELSE. HAVE YOUR GUYS PLAY AT THE LEVEL THEY SHOULD...

Chalk me up as a tournament driver. I've become obsessed with the points rating and state rankings at my 3.5 level. I'd drive through hell and back to play some of these guys !!!!

I am a 3.5 player getting ready to play in my first clay court tournament. I have the following: 1. Good speed 2. Hard first serve (flat) 3. Medium paces slice/kick second serve with good placement. 4. Strong topspin forehand 5. Moderate slice backhand 6. Good drop shot 7...

tenn23 - Where are you going to high school at?

We have a winner here. You never have to give an audible signal.

If you have a problem with the USTA taking away the tournament calculations in your final year end NTRP rating, then send your concerns to Marilyn... sherman@sta.usta.com

After doing some research this guy has either gotten bad information or was full of **** to begin with. You can do a google search for "USTA Southern Section 3.05B" and you will be able to pull up the rule he is referencing...

Can you link me to the page where this was found. Im trying to get details on this before I waste $200+ on hotels next weekend.

I am from the Tri-Cities, TN area and have been traveling to NC, SC, GA, AL and Kentucky to play in tournaments in order to achieve a higher ranking. I am trying to make the 1.0 jump from 3.0 to 4.0 because my strokes have come back to me from my past. If this news is accurate that the...

Amazingly enough NOONE HERE HAS SAID THIS ONE "When you hit a rocket ace serve that your opponent cannot get to in a million years and you get the magical (LET) call"

Hmm....just like a used cars salesman....the more you listen to him talk...the lower the #'s get. In another three or four days he will admit to having never picked up a tennis racquet.

I would contact Yaser Zaatini at East Tennessee State. He has a very strong men's program. yaserzaatini@etsu.edu

Like I have mentioned before. Before the start of the season I hold two round robin matches with all of my players. I am looking for 1 singles player and 3 doubles teams. I have a total of 3 other guys who can play singles to fill one spot and 5 total doubles teams. At the end of the...

You forgot the following: 1. Ball 2. Racket 3. Shoes Everything else looks good!!

At your age you should be able to regain your strength pretty quickly. I would suggest working on your footwork and staying in shape while your arm is down. You may be able to work on volleys? Im not sure the severity of your injury, but you should be able to work on footwork and stamina...

The club pro should be able to assist you in finding a partner of equal skill level. If you are really concerned about your game, rent a ball machine and start from there or purchase one. From there, I would move into a doubles scene first and then into the singles ladder should that be...

Anyone know anything?
