    Ask me anything about being a professional tennis player

    Hi Filip, I wonder if you could give us some commentary on your fitness regime. Obviously tennis player need to train to be strong, not big. Does this mean you do a lot of sprinting? What are some of the common exercises and type of running routines that you do? I know Murray for instance...

    What does it mean to have intensity?

    My coach recently told me that I need to bring more intensity into my matches. What does that mean though? I dont think it means angry - because that seems like that would be detrimental to how well you play.

    Alternative to Kobra Tour?

    4.0 player. Big groundstrokes, lots of spin. Don't go in much, and just a spin serve first and second. My coach suggested that I switched frames because he said "He didn't like the shape of the ball as it left my frame". Does naybody have a good suggestion of a good baseliner's racquet...

    Pain when raising arm

    Whenever I life my arm up for a serve it seems that the muscle right behind my armpit (teres major?) hurts incredibly badly. It only happens when I raise my arm past my shoulder. It just started hurting one day when I went served. Any hints to what the problem is? And solutions?

    Why the seemingly unanimous support for Tiger at the Masters?

    Because fans evaluate him as a golf player. Nothing else. Anyways, it's not your place to judge someone elses personal life.

    my brother playing like a sissy

    Basically this is correct. He is plays in a group lesson with the top varsity players, but doesn't play enough tournaments. He usually goes to a "no pressure" match play and does pretty well. I think he plays pretty well because he can use the pace of the good players. steak

    my brother playing like a sissy

    So, tryouts for the tennis team were happening and I happened to come early to pick him up. It was out of four games and I saw him play pretty well, and after being up 3-2, he started playing really passively. He wasn't hitting with any pace at all, and was hitting right in the middle of the...

    You are stringing too high. I actually string 46-48. The reason it takes a while to "break in" is because you need to make the tension drop.
