tennis

Simple question. Was just curious how many posters actually play vs. how many don't play but are fans. I see people post that tennis doesn't have a non-playing fan base so I am interested. Of course, I assume most here would search tennis forums out as players, so maybe a skewed base. But let me...

Does somebody know how to make highlights in HD?

Just got over with my daily workout and found this video on YouTube via random swipes and clicks... One of the best yet not famous fed interview.. He talks about his game development all the way from childhood onwards... About his thoughts on his game, what he thinks has made impact on his game...

I'm late but how does he do it? I mean he is a giant but you need to keep fit to be able to serve bombs and run the to net. He's 40 next March also lol, theoretically speaking that Jordan Thompson beat Andy Murray when he was Number 1 then Karlovic beats Thompson, does that make...

Wanna see me some tennis equipment porn. Show us what you got!

So I'm pretty new to tennis, but just wanted to discuss racquet swing weight to power ratio for your personal game style. If you're a strong athlete and heavy hitter, wouldn't it make sense to grab a racquet that's lighter in weight? If swing weight creates more power through the ball, wouldn't...

This USO was crucial for Rafa in his quest to overtake Federer. Now the difference between them remains 3 GS, the same since 2014. I know Rafa can still win a couple more RGs(at max) and maybe eke out a USO going ahead, but I don't see him catch Federer, here on. The field is getting tougher and...

I will take "The mummy" for djokovic And "Thor" for del potro. Your picks???

Yesterday, almost 2 hours after I finished serving and hitting some shots, the back of my hand started to ache at night. When I was serving and hitting rallies there was no pain at all and didn’t notice anything. The next day the aching was gone but now there is some pain with some very specific...

This Open could be a big tournament, if Rafa manages to win, and he's got a great chance of going deep with the draw he's had it'll be the first time ever he's within two grand slams of Roger. The way i see it, if it happens is one of two things: 1) Roger finds early 2017 form and wins another...

Looking if any of you have any reccos for functional tennis workouts at the gym (or outdoors), with/without weights, resistance bands and medicine balls. Any videos of pros doing specific workouts would be a big plus! Thanks!

If you see a guy in a neon shirt not switching when he should be and/or setting up his partner for the other team with floaty balls...it wasn't me, it was my evil twin, Jesley Way...we were switching out between points.

Someone who has flown under everyone's radar is Lucas Pouille. Watching his game he is silky smooth from the back of the court, able to hit winners at will off both wings. I think the result against Nadal is just the start of things to come for him, he won Vienna last year and has already been...

Hi guys, I came across this fun site earlier this year which should provide some healthy competition to these forums and a nice break from all the trolling. This is tennis draw challenge! All you have to do is fill in the entire draw from day 1 and the person who is the most accurate picker is...

It's world cup time and our ATP pros love it Lol :D what a great picture. What team is Fabio supporting here?:p

I'm thinking of getting into tennis, so I got out my parent's old racquets. I'm wondering if anyone knows anything about these specific ones. Value, opinions, etc. Also, can a beginner use these? https://ibb.co/hLzVCo

Hi, I’m a big Stosur fan. But this year has been very frustrating to watch. Not because she is not winning much anymore. I don’t care if she wins titles or not. But it is bad to see her playing with so little confidence, because she is actually a nice player with good sportsmanship. I would like...

So, I have this beauty which I have had in the family for almost 20 years now. I really want to try this racquet out but upon closer inspection, I fear that the present grommets will just break the strings. Is there a way to get grommets similar to it? Do I need to contact Yonex about this...

Hey guys, it's Michael, a 17 year old tennis player hitting a few balls. Feedback appreciated

Okay, so here's the deal. A few weeks ago I started work in a tennis pro shop. I do court and facilities maintenance. It's at a popular yacht club in the area. Yesterday it was raining, so a good bit of the work I would have had to do wasn't doable. When I got there, the trash cans were all...

Hi everyone, I’m a USPTA instructor and whenever I get asked what my job is or what I do for a living I’ve always been curious about what other instructors/pros reply with. For those of you that are certified and talking to someone who knows nothing about tennis what do you tell them when they...
