    Their last one in RG was problably one of the best matches I have seen. Zverev owning Rafa for 2 sets (if I remenber well) but still losing both of them + the injury just when I belived that Sasha was flipping the match . Tough demo of how tennis can be brutal

    Rackets that play similar to Wilson Clash 100

    I’m with the clash but not planning to change due to comfort. Out of interest which string are you using ? Not sure the racket you describe exist !

    Yonex ezone 98 2022

    Yes and no, I’m about to go back to the Wilson Clash despite my love for the Ezone 98 I have the ezone in vs/rpm now and it is better than full poly … but might not be enough

    What makes Rune so good?

    I have seen a few of his matches completely My view is that he plays 80% of the match like shxxx, with very average level and attitude, but still blasting "hot shots" from time to time.... this give the opponent 0 rythm and probably enters into their heads ... and then he starts to take it...

    Soft polys for tennis elbow

    I had similar problem; 2 options I have tried If budget is not an issue / you don’t break in less than 10h gut/poly should be the way to go - You keep amazing spin, great power and excellent touch (this is what I use ; the price is ok as it is much cheaper than physio ;-) ) 2n option might...

    Alcaraz, Sinner, Rune: who has the most upside & why?

    Alcaraz amazing but already suffering from injuries - I hope he can find a solution as he is really amazing to see Rune great as well but less variety and without change of attitude won't last Sinner already proven track record over a couple of seasons , 2 things to fix -> he woule be my...

    Replacement for Pure Aero VS

    Very strange I have a ezone 98 and what I like about it is if I miss I know why it also magnifying serve , FH. and 1hbh it has very low launch angle

    Zverev on Medvedev re the toilet break at 4:3 in the third "He is one of the most unfair players in the world."

    I took the match from this point and according to the TV speaker, before that M had a clear positive momemtum with Z going downhill. After this break, Med got broken -> if anyone was bothered by the short pee break, it was M Z should challenge himself and learn from this ... `outside in view...

    Can you compare comfort vs. PTP ? Thanks !

    Yonex ezone 98 2022

    I have played again the 2 racket side by side (similar match outcome) I think the ezone give me more confidence as if I don't hit well, I know why and what to correct. The PA gives me more depth freely (and net clearance) but doesn't give me a clear feedback on what I'm doing well / bad and...

    Buying almost 20 yr old (but unused) racquet ok?

    I don't know but I would stay away, plastic /. grommets might not keep properties for that long If you're short on cash go for a used racket

    The "String your Poly at 40" challenge thread

    The "String your Poly at 40" challenge thread

    Thanks for sharing your experience Where would you position Ezone 98 ? I played yesterday with a dead HGS on a PA 2023 and I liked the launch angle, the plush feel, the fee power … my Ezone with element 1.25 at 48 resulted in much lower net clearance I wanted to try HGS 1.20 at 40lbs (or...

    Yonex ezone 98 2022

    A few weeks later - I have hit maybe 30/40 hours with Ezone with HGS 1.20 , Element 1.25, Xone and PTP 1.25 (all copoly at 22/20kg) Decided to play it in // with my PA 2023 strung with HGS at … 14kg (? - strung a while ago and dead string) Serve - Ezone gives me more free power and comparable...

    ATP Masters1000: Miami Open 2023

    Zverev (17 break point against Danil) , huge serve, heavy strokes... might be still penalized by movement as he's not there yet I would love to see him at the top before RG to make him a serious contender there Note: I'm not a fan at all but I must say that having the opportunity to see him...

    Yonex ezone 98 2022

    Went for PTP again today. Quite OK, not too much thinking about the string. Some arm soreness tonight after these 2 sessions... might have to stick with Element (or go down to 1.2 PTP ?)

    Yonex ezone 98 2022

    Stringing done for both racquets ! Played today with PTP Will be playing with one of the 2 tomorrow… PTP experience was strange (1.25 21/19kg) At first I really didn’t like the string… I was expecting (from my last experience with PTP in VCore 100 2022) muted comfortable string I found it...

    Inconsistent backhand slice

    I really like this video. Which one is easier to master Federer or Djoko style. I'm more on the Fed side right now with a few things to change but maybe easier to fully rebuild my swing to match Novak's Any ideas ?

    Yonex ezone 98 2022

    I rated it as not arm friendly due to some forearm light pain with HGS at 21/19 kg (not the case with PA Team) but I'm still using it and had no issues with Element (could also continue with HGS maybe at even lower tension but I'm not a massive spin user so Element will do the job)

    Yonex ezone 98 2022

    yes, that's the plan... but for now I'm Xone vs. Hyper G I tried Element and liked it I know have to restring the 2 racquets to compare Element and PTP (both 1.25) Maybe this week end, most probably the following
