He's a tennis director isnt he? Crazy
I think that model is from 2012. About 10 years old.Has anyone seen him play and beat Sock? I haven’t found high quality pictures yet but he was playing a babolat with the very old white and red buttcap. Anyone know what it is? Funny to see.
edit:apparently a nearly 20 year old pure drive
No, he is a real estate investor. He played tennis for Princeton, set records for the Ivy league, then went to Harvard Business School and decided to go into real estate in Florida. The latest news blurb indicated he'd ask for more time off from work to continue to play in this tournament. Sock should retire.
Sock needs to improve his fitness.
At best, Sock should go full time on the doubles tour. He's 30 years old and he is no Federer/Nadal/Djokovic...the sun is setting. He should be looking for his best opportunity to teach tennis, preferably a job that doesn't have any backhand lessons.
That’s correct. Not quite 20 years yet
. That’s the standard 2012 pure drive with the weight at 3-9. I used the roddick version for 3 years. Its my favorite pure drive that I’ve used.
Yup, another guy with an incredible forehand and absolutely no backhand. Physically you cant run around your back on every shot for ever. You have to be so fit and so fast to do all that running. Eventual your movement will start to decrease as you age and it will expose that backhand more.At best, Sock should go full time on the doubles tour.

I get the distinct impression from all I've heard about Sock that he never committed to what it would take to be a top tier pro. I think this is pretty much the opposite of Stevie Johnson who just doesn't have the ability. Sock has coasted along on a cloud of talent and now that he is getting older, the cloud is dispersing.
That’s what happens. Age catches up to everyone eventually.
