Thanks for this info, from your experience is a say $500 ticket in Row A of sideline lower promenade (309-313 or 329-333) a better deal than $1200 for loge seats anywhere?

I have a friend coming in town and we are considering going to the US Open on Saturday Sept 7 which would be the men's semis. Any idea on how to get tix, are the stubhubs of the world my only option meaning paying $500-1k for a decent ticket? Thanks.

Fernando Gonzalez. Just an amazing player overall considering how much he could do playing 80% of the court with his FH and defending his BH by running around it so much. I saw him live, I have seen a lot of players live but Gonzo's FH was like a laser beam.

You're in excellent shape based on the info you provided as a DI college female athlete. That bf is consistent with good female athletes but how was it measured - calipers, bod pod, or just one of those electronic scales or hand grips? The problem with the scales and grips is that they use an...

Can a 4.5 use the london tour effectively? I own the DC Pro which I love and is prob the exact opposite of this racquet. It's a 100 inch, massive sweet spot, spectacular for spin generation (16x18), and big time serving. The DCP fits my game which is big FH, big serve, but I am somewhat...

You want to make sure you keep your feet moving and take full cuts on the ball irrespective of who you play. When you play down a level or more, the pace/quality of the ball is to the point where you can be lazy but that's where it gets dangerous because it can take a while to get out of that...

Sampras never won the French, wasn't even close to being competitive there except for one SF. He was a fast court specialist so he racked up a ton of USO and Wimb. Fed can win on all surfaces. Nadal is the clay GOAT and if not for him, how many more FOs would have Fed won. I like to give Fed...

Unreal, he still had it. I expected him to get demolished vs Djoker...guess I overrated the hail mary saves Djoker had last year at USO on match points. Djoker didn't have many answers for Fed and was mentally shaken. First time however I have seen Fed utilize the mid range BH slice so...

Fed is about to choke it all away on his serve

Saved 3 bps at 4-1, if he holds, i think he wins the entire match

http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/tennis/wimbledon-andy-murray-match-delayed-1113488 The blue sweatshirt - looks like an adidias one - with the XV - it's the last pic at the bottom of hte article with him stretching. Where can I get this?

Thank you for that

Fed would get his ar$e kicked by Mirka if he agreed w/Simon. But I think the main solution should be to get more prize money into the hands of players. The promoters in tennis seem like slime compared to a lot of other sports. I can't recall where, maybe it was what Tipsaravic mentioned...

seriously...it's over when an up and coming american player like harrison is playing djoker so u get the US player vs big name player combo still gets trumped by sharapova against some no name... espn will air WTA matches, mindless commentary after the match in their wimbledon studio with...

That trigger point book you recommended is awesome. It was amazing when going over the TE stuff in the book to see how it ties to your rear shoulder/upper back, etc. I do the self massage anytime I feel my arm acting up and it fixes things almost immediately. I haven't used the therabar...

1) Australian Open 2) French 3) Wimb 4) USO I'm in the northeast so I've been to the USO a bunch so I might take it for granted where as I have not attended any other GS. I think USO fans are awfu so that is one reason I don't like it. Another issue is that USO courts have a lot of wind...

I just don't get it. ESPN has this awesome coverage of Wimbledon, the production value, etc is tremendous and it's great to see but how the heck are they deciding what matches to air. I am so sick of WTA early round matches. Like this morning, first match is Donald Young v Youzhny...so ESPN...

Yeah Gonzo a great sportsman...he stole a medal from James Blake, demonstrated great integrity there.

Sounds like he's just finally learned a thing or two from Nadal. All Murray is doing is grabbing his back, he's not making numerous trainer requests during key inflection points of matches. He doesn't slow a match down to an absolute crawl like Isner during key points. I like Isner and Nadal...

Why would people who have lean physiques "most likely" be working less hard than those that the lean people consider overweight. Yes YMMV but it's after one puts in the requisite effort and discipline. Most people have no idea how to eat, no idea about controlling their insulin levels, how...

USTA wanted to move Oudin out of the her home area in FL and to NYC cause of the toxic personal environment she had to deal with in recent years. She is like what, 19-20? Beat sharapova in 2009? Got all those deals, has her family structure wrecked, and then has to deal w/that when she was 17...

I think the commentators kept going back to her conditioning over and over again. I dont think they presented Oudin as an incredibly hard worker, pretty direct about the conditioning needing to be addressed.

Just roddick being roddick. At his seeding he is going to be in trouble at every tournament. The past cpl years he's been losing to top 30-50 types like Kohlscrieber, Feli Lopez, etc. pretty consistently. He has no weapons at this point either, serve is weakening and easier to read, his game...

Verdasco/Nadal AO9 - the shot making and athleticism was incredible. Why does she prefer to watch Fed? Fed makes everything look so easy, he is floating on air, killing the ball effortlessly, etc.. I love watching the guy but I think the risk is if your gf is not into tennis and she...

sounds painful still...but i will give it a shot. plus that author has a book on frozen shoulder i may try out too.

You had GE and now TE? Ouch, any idea how you got TE? You have tried a few things right? Flexbar and portable ultrasound? Any idea of how they rank in terms of most effective. My TE has diminished but still there. May try that book. Most importantly, how much does that active...

Gut is timeless, if you look at the modern high end multis they all try to describe themselves as close to gut as they can be. There prob won't be anything as good as gut if the technology now hasn't resulted in a $10 set of strings that plays like gut. Gut maintains tension and will play...

nadal is huge, a lot of these guys are big/thick. the atp stats are in a lot of cases not very current either. nadal is 6'1" and prob 190-195. that is about as big as an NFL cornerback. verdasco is prob one of the biggest/thickest tennis players i've ever seen. saw him in the 2010 uso and...

If you need to lose 20lbs, that is a lot of weight, and the only way to do it efficiently and actually succeed is to plan it out. The diet is critically important but so is the exercise. If I was you, I'd first identify what I eat on a daily basis and the number of calories. Then I'd try to...

I won't ever use poly again cause of the TE i have, mild now but still there. I had mine i think at 62/60 but overall I think if your stroke mechanics are geared towards higher spin, than you may be better off with strings that can give you a little more pop in your shot cause the extra pace of...
