    Slam runner up vs Masters titles?

    I don’t usually remember 2nd place, even Grand Slams. I would rather win a Masters 1000. Something to be said about completing a tournament and finishing on top.

    Sinner accepts settlement with WADA for 3 month ban

    Already losing interest in tennis with Big 3 era ending. Want to like Sinner. Just don’t believe his story. Suspect he has world class doping schedule. Maybe just got sloppy and got caught twice. Who knows what else he’s taking and just hasn’t been caught with. WADA probably accepts that they...

    Wertheim Removed From TC

    Unfortunate for a private conversation caught on Hot mike. If all of us had a private conversation accidently recorded and aired to the public..... every one of us would likely be suspended or fired. Just some perspective.

    Which pro player playstyle would be best to emulate at the recreational level?

    Would actually copy Chris Evert. Simple back to forward , low to high strokes to minimize mishits. High percentage tennis. Consistency over power...... kinda like what recreational players can realistically copy and be successful with.

    What is your recent satisfying victory, due to tactical change ?

    I was struggling in a doubles match and our opponent suggested jokingly that I switch racquets. I had an identical racquet with different strings, so I switched and played much better. We ended up winning the match. My partner and I had a good laugh afterwards.

    WTA Tour player with bunionette causing me to stop playing. Looking for a pair of shoes that will fit.

    Have you contacted various shoe companies and see if they can make you a custom shoe last. If so , you can sign on with that tennis shoe company.

    Your best visualization teaching tips

    I visualize trajectory of ball coming off my racquet, shape of ball flight, and actual target….. and not think about mechanics. Surprisingly feels more natural and connected to my shot.

    Constructive criticism on shadow swings for new player

    I like your enthusiasm. I like to shadow swing as well, just for fun. Suggest you come back with another video of you on the tennis court..... hitting your shots. Can give you better constructive criticism.

    Serena Williams

    Serena and her coach got caught coaching. Ramos was exactly correct. Serena still tried to bully Ramos and was obviously lying her *** off. She tried to rattle Osaka with her tantrums ala McEnroe...didn’t work. Tried to look like the mature person trying to quiet the crowds....too late ...

    Serena Williams

    Serena saw his thumbs up gesture...getting coaching as usual. Her coach admitted coaching happens 100 % of matches. She loss focus and could not let it go. Naomi Osaka showed tremendous focus and finished off a distracted GOAT. A little sad for a young 20 yo girl having her winning moment...

    Miss kick serve long when nervous

    When I hit long and can't make the adjustment that day, I just take 1 step back and hit my normal serve. Inches out becomes a serve in the box.

    Getting the funk out of athletic wear

    Stopped wearing dry fit , polyester clothes years ago. Awful smell from tennis clothes have long disappeared. Wear only high quality cotton. May get more damp, but no longer have to deal with polyester smell.

    PK Redondo Mid-Plus vs. PK Kinetic 5G for TE help

    I have played with the Redondo and the kinetic 7G (extended version of 5G). Nothing softer, more solid than the redondo in my opinion. I use multi strings and keep tension < 50 .lbs

    X1 Biphase

    Also disappointed with poor durability (compared to other multifilaments I have used). Strangely starts fraying quickly on crosses. Will have to go back to gamma TNT2 17L for now.

    Should I just quit?

    One thing I try not to do is decide who should win (high ranked player, low ranked player, talent, etc...) before the first ball is struck. Once I start playing, I'm just concentrating on working / playing to get the job done.

    Yonex RDS 001 90 Mid

    Sorry for the no response. Just happened to recheck my posts. No experience with BLX, K-factor racquets. Did not like the n-code 90. Not very maneuverable and had a "dull" feel to it.

    Who believes in the "Right and Privilege" mentality?

    I think you're thinking too hard on this. Just get the bag and enjoy. Dress up, dress down, big bag, no bag.....I would spend less time trying to figure out how to fit in and more time figuring how to get better, so i can enjoy the game

    Upgrading from an original Pro Staff

    Loved my Prostaff 6.0 85's. Never able to really find a racquet that could replace it. Just finally made the transition to a Pro Kennex Redondo 93. Actually like it better than the Prostaff.
