....and OUR tennis suffers.... sorry.

so, i was just watching the tennis channel court report w/ justin gimelstob (who i don't really like, but that's another topic) and they started talking about jack sock. the most important thing that justin said he should do is follow the ryan harrison model (not donald young) in that he needs...

i agree. i have not met him, but just from what i see on tv he seems to have a negative attitude. but he has learned this behavior as well. too many challenger level guys have this disposition on the court as well as off, and it rubs off on you if you're around it enough. it seems for...

I like Federer but I hope Denis wins this match. First against a top-tenner. LET'S GO DENIS!!!

i don't think nadal would have ever made it to no. 1 or won any slams without the babolat technology.

kaley cuoco from big bang theory used to be a nationally ranked junior.

stosur for the women.... and not just because they wear shades.

my favorites have been arnaud clement and janko tipsarevic.

Made it thru??? Sock plays Tim Smyczek in a qualie final tomorrow. Pretty sure you have to win that to make it through to the main draw.

So... Jesse Levine and Denis Kudla received wildcards into the 2012 Delray Beach main draw and Jack Sock is grinding through the qualifying. If you read my thread about Jack Sock and wildcards a couple of weeks ago I was suggesting Kudla and Levine deserved wildcards more than Sock. Evidently...

i know, right????? i posted another thread on here earlier this week about this. the big deal is... how long is too long? if you win matches you will get to the top 100 wild cards or not. look at isner. took him about 6 weeks to go from 800 to 200. sock received a wild card last week to...

it just seems to me that sock is using wildcards too much and has been doing so for awhile now. last year he was wild carded into delray beach qualifier. got beat by sweeting 64, 60 in the second round. it will be interesting to see who gets wildcards for delray beach this year.... anyone...

jack sock is not a bad choice, i agree. i just think that there may be better ones. my point is, why 3 tournaments in a row? obviously jack is applying for the wildcards. spread the wealth around a little and let a few other americans get some as well.

Jesse Levine. Denis Kudla.

isner's form was clearly way above his ranking and deserved the wildcards. i think this is generally not the case.

Isner began his professional career in earnest in the summer of 2007. With a world ranking of no. 839, he needed wildcard entries into the main draws of every tournament, even at the Futures level.[5] He won his first tournament of the fall, the USA F14 Futures, beating the top three seeds...

isner also went to college and i'm not opposed to helping out some top players as they come out of school at age 21 or 22. isner also won about everything he played in his first 2-3 months out on tour. but if you want to be a "player" at 19 and not go to school, play the futures and qualies...

i just want our young players to focus on becoming excellent players instead of trying to become stars. if you have good results, you will be a star. or you can go the route of kournikova.

i was glad kudla (who came through qualies) beat sock in the first round. and i know sock is maybe somewhat injured right now. i also heard jesse levine say in his interview after his challenger win in dallas that he would have liked to go play san jose but couldn't because he had to play the...

correct me if i'm wrong, but there is a reason you can get points for playing qualifiers but not for losing in 1st round of main draws.

i realize the mixed title is pretty much why he is getting them. looks like he might be headed to a stellar career as a doubles specialist.

i'm new here. hello to all. i wanted to talk about something on my mind and hopefully get some responses. first, i like jack sock. i think he has some real talent and can produce some good results eventually. but i'm not sure if getting wild cards to one challenger/tour level...
