These three players are a breath of fresh air, they play aggressive no nonsense tennis as well as appearing at this stage to have great attitudes both on and off the court. They really do make the current crop of mid twenty year olds look pretty lame.
As long as they keep him out of the commentary box. His misogynistic behavior towards women is disgraceful, publicly shaming WTA players as well as assaulting his partner is just not acceptable
Any panel beating car repair shop should be able to paint them, particularly if you just want a single color. Also you could ask around and see if anyone in your area does smaller paint jobs like motorcycle restorations, frames, tanks etc.
I've come back from a tweener as I was finding the tweener + poly was just a bit too much. I find the blade 104 very forgiving in terms of feel and plays more consistently over a wider range of ball brands, ball condition and playing conditions. The tweeners I found were much more sensitive to...
I really like my 104 blades. I find you can use poly without any dramas as the racket is fairly flexible and forgiving. The Dunlop CX200 OS gets good feedback as well, unfortunately I haven't had a hit with one.
Adrian Mannarino apparently string his Babolats at very low tensions and doesn't restring very often either, using the same racket for a couple of weeks. So has anyone tried this approach and what was the result?
Blade 104, doesn't feel or play with any of the perceived disadvantages of a larger frame, but is very easy on the arm and is not really string sensitive.
Unfortunately he looked totally clueless in the AO final against Djokovic. He had his chances but couldn't execute at crucial stages, very disappointing. His own best shot the forehand went missing and no real game plan or ability to play the match on his terms.
Things were different back then, it was generally accepted that once you hit your thirties your best sporting days were gone. If Nadal, Fed and Nole had all retired when they reached thirty we wouldn't be having these conversations.
The same situation may very well have happened if the likes of Aggasi, Sampras etc had decided to extend their careers into their thirties. This situation is not peculiar to tennis alone, stars of many sports are continuing to play into their thirties as sports medicine has improved and the...
I would direct all of my shots to his forehand and see if it breaks down as it has done in the past. Would definitely avoid cross court backhand to backhand exchanges
Djokovic can play every match on Rod Laver Arena, nobody is questioning that. The issue is playing in the heat of the day is vastly more taxing on the body than playing in the cool of the evening. The conditions are also faster during the day so players that have a day match followed by a night...
Surely the Tournament referee or the players association has some say in the way the tournament is run or are they just there for show and do what they are told!
