    Babolat Ballistic Polymono 17g

    I have 2 reels of this stuff and have never strung with it. Can someone give me input on this string? Is it stiff? Does it lose tension fast? Compare it to something else. Thanks in advance.

    NCAA Men's Draw

    Ole Miss will work A&M! Stranger things have happened but I wouldn't count on that. UCLA can upset Ole Miss however. That's my two cents. What do you think Wake Forest chance are against Baylor?

    New Ohio State Player

    I wouldn't sleep on Virginia this year! I would say they are the favorite along with UCLA. They just won the ACC tournament over a VERY good Wake Forest team. Watch out for them.

    USTA ratings cheater in Greensboro, NC?

    No I am not but again that's not the issue. The issue is why is he allowed to cheat and everyone else isn't allowed to? I do know Shawn and he isn't a jerk as far as I know and I have played on lots of teams with him and even against him. You are entitled to your opinions as am I. Do not lose...

    USTA ratings cheater in Greensboro, NC?

    I don't see where the problem is. The guy Payne has cheated or whoever filled out his self rate form has cheated period! It's cut and dry and an injustice was done and as soon as the first person caught it and southern tennis was made aware of it he should've been gone end, of discussion. What...

    USTA ratings cheater in Greensboro, NC?

    Absolutely, a grievance was filed by a mixed doubles captain. Email responses from his college athletic info department were forwarded, with the grievance, as well as his record at #1 doubles and his partners name. He is 42 years old and by guidelines should have been no lower than 5.0 his first...

    USTA ratings cheater in Greensboro, NC?

    Tarheel this guy CHEATED point blank! There is no grey area, the first question you are asked when you self rate is did you play college tennis. In his case he did play college tennis and that should've been the end of it. The next question is something like was it a division 1 school and in his...

    USTA ratings cheater in Greensboro, NC?

    I just think that allowing a guy like this to cheat is wrong and sets the wrong precedent. The USTA has rules for a reason but I guess they are more like guidelines than rules if one can get by but the masses cannot.

    USTA ratings cheater in Greensboro, NC?

    You are correct and I did check. He played 2 singles and 1 doubles at Virginia Tech in 1987! He had no medical appeal and was self rated. Going by the USTA guidelines he should be no less than a 5.0 but for some reason was allowed to play as a 4.0 even though he had 3 grievences filed and no...

    USTA ratings cheater in Greensboro, NC?

    I just heard that the Southern 4.0 team from Greensboro, NC had a guy playing singles that admitted to playing Division 1 tennis at Virginia Tech! I was also told that Southern tennis was informed this and even grievences were filed but he was still allowed to play as a 4.0 at Nationals! Holy...

    We won the National eastern mixed championships in San Juan 2006. Pretty easily actually. North Carolina won the 8.0, senior 8.0, and the 10.0 national championship! Not bad for a small state. The 2 8.0 teams were from Winston Salem.

    I think what is confusing is the difference in a 4.5 from the Northeast and a 4.5 from the southern section. The southern section contains far more and as a whole better players. I played in the 8.0 national championships and played a 4.5/3/5 team from the Northeast and the 4.5 guy was FAR worse...

    I apologize if that sounded condesending. I am serious about the 3.5 rating, maybe we have alot of high level players but its true. Our 4.0 league has many players stronger than these guys appear to be.
