I know of at least one man that has literally brought Federer to his knees. Marat Safin at the 2005 Australian Open semifinals.

Not even an inkling of shame if he announces retirement on centre court at Wimbledon.

Didn't know age was a variable. Just wanted to give you an example of an athlete coming back from a torn meniscus within a month since you said you've never seen an athlete do it. Bennett also had an ACL tear the season prior to the meniscus tear. Unfortunately, he suffered another ACL tear that...

He had already torn his ACL the season prior to the meniscus tear. I could see why another ACL tear on top of those injuries would be career ending.

Michael Bennett, wide receiver for the Georgia Bulldogs, suffered a torn meniscus 10/5/2013. He returned to the field of play on 11/2/2013 with 5 catches for 59 yards. Math would suggest returning in under 30 days is possible for a torn meniscus.

I emailed league coordinator and he is able to play since we still have 3 matches left. Like you guys said, he needs to play in at least 2 matches to qualify for playoffs. Thanks guys.

I have a buddy that didn't know if he would be able to play USTA adult league in Atlanta this summer because his wife was due to give birth at the end of June. However, she had the baby a few weeks early and things have settle down. Does anyone know if it is still possible for him to renew his...

Anyone know if the red/black wristband Ryan Harrison wore at this year's Sony Open is available to the public? It looks like this http://m.zimbio.com/pictures/F2AAU-2drV0/Sony+Ericsson+Open+Day+4/GYq2LcDqDqm/Ryan+Harrison

I keep it simple: creatine & whey protein pre and post workout fish oil for the joints I get the rest of my nutrients and vitamins from a good diet

What your trainer recommends for your workouts is called a pyramid set scheme. One of the major advantages of pyramid setting is staying strong while engaging in activities that require muscular endurance. My other suggestion for losing weight and increasing endurance during play is getting the...

Your goal is to lose fat and get in overall better shape. While training/working out is important to reaching these goals, an even more important aspect that most people tend to neglect/ignore/hate/don't really give a rat's arse is nutrition and diet. No matter how hard you train, if you don't...

If I am not mistaken, Tomic went undefeated in Hopman cup singles including a straight set win over the current #1 Dojokivic, but he has yet to beat a current top 10 player in an ATP match.

This kind of reminds me of the days when ppl were calling the djoker cocky and arrogant early on in his career. I'd say he backed up his attitude. Now can Tomic do the same?

John McEnroe should have been added to this FB chat.

Not sure if someone has posted this satirical facebook conversation amongst some ATP and WTA players. Even if someone has, it deserves another post. http://tenngrand.com/2012/12/13/tennis-players-react-to-nadals-return-on-facebook/

After two weeks with BHBlack 17, strung at 58lbs main 57lbs crosses on PDR+ cortex, playing 3 hours 4-5 times a week with 4.0 and 4.5 players (they rate me as 4.0 while I rate myself as 4.0 doubles and 3.75 singles with mostly eastern forehand and two handed backhand) First week Power: 9/10...

Immediate-serving with PDR+ Grew-groundstrokes and volleys with PDR+

If you think the PDR is powerful, the PDR + is like a cannon. Basically, one needs to string at the higher end of the recommended tension range to control the power, and using copoly strings is the way to go imo.

I usually hydrate before matches (this does not mean chug a ton of water right before a match, more over a span of time). During matches, I periodically drink a sports drink along with water. Basically on every switch over, I take a couple sips of the sports drink followed by a few sips of...

You facetiousness gave me a good chuckle. What you said about "forcing you to muscle the ball" is very true. I had this problem for awhile until I finally wised up and switched to a lighter more powerful racket.

Lol, they would misspell the last name of the lone asian player from USC (it's Nguyen not Nyugen). I believe he clinched the national championship for USC in 2011.

While we are on the subject of strings, I will give my two cents. For those of you on a budget, I say give the tourna big hitter black a try if you like co polys. TW has them for $89.95 a reel or $8.95 a pack. String has decent power/control and really great spin (topspin, sidespin & underspin)...

Tennis-warehouse offers a recommended ntrp rating on many of their rackets, which people can use as guidelines when purchasing a racket. All joking and sarcasm aside, if you are a beginner/novice (1.0-3.0), you should probably look for something else before going for the prostaff 85s or tour...

Babolat grommets and bumper guard installations, talk about sore fingers.

If it still slips after you have thoroughly cleaned it, then it might be time to get a new one. I have a gss clamp and have had no problems with it. I usually clean it after about 5 string jobs. The gss clamp is also the one master racket technician, yulitle, recommends and he does not steer you...

history of the pure drive Here's a video of the pure drives from past to present, starting in 1994 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Se4mEPwH34

A fun match between two great players. Also, this match was from the China Open not an olympic exhibition. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKGq_u98cT4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_FuV7coDVF8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ka7YNxKT2gI http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxAgb8zpI0I...

5 set classic showcasing both players' serve, sampras's volleys, and fed's forehand.

which of fed's coaches helped refine his forehand the most?
