Is the end near for Juan Martin Del Potro?

Written by: Jonas Eriksson |

It’s hard not to feel a great deal of sympathy for Argentina’s Juan Martin del Potro after his management team confirmed that he had undergone another knee operation after feeling discomfort over recent months. Of course, injury is part and parcel of professional sport and one couldn’t spend their spare hours in the day feeling […]

Wilson Pro Staff Tour 90 Review

Written by: Jonas Eriksson |

I had never tried the first edition of the pro staff 90 before, so it was high time for Wilson Pro Staff Tour 90 Review. The Wilson Pro Staff Tour 90 is pretty much synonymous with Roger Federer. This was likely the racquet he used until 2013 when he switched to the Pro Staff RF97 […]

Bio Bubbles For The 2021 Australian Open

Written by: Jonas Eriksson |

The Australian Open was one of the few events this year that was completed successfully before any restrictions were put in place. To guarantee that the 2021 event can happen, they needed to set precautions in place to combat the ever-changing global situation. Thankfully, the organisers have already finalised their master plan with the creation […]

Mantis 300 Racquet Review

Written by: Jonas Eriksson |

Mantis a smaller brand that creates good racquets for a more budget-conscious audience. This is my Mantis 300 racquet review. The Mantis 300 is not only called 300, but I did for simplicity’s sake. It’s actually called Mantis 300 PS III and you can read more about it on the All Things Tennis website. All […]

How Do You Beat Novak Djokovic?

Written by: Jonas Eriksson |

That’s the question right now, isn’t it? How do you beat Novak Djokovic? I thought Bautista-Agut might have the answers, but… Last night at the Western and Southern Open, Djokovic visibly struggled with a stiff neck, he wasn’t moving quite as well and Bautista-Agut was playing great tennis. After winning the first set, I thought […]

US Open 2020 Draw

Written by: Jonas Eriksson |

The US Open 2020 Draw is out. Is it time for another Djokovic title or can we get a new Grand Slam winner? We’re at the semi-final stage at the Western and Southern Open 2020. Djokovic is playing Bautista-Agut (who has beaten him in the past) and Tsitsipas is playing Raonic. My prediction for the […]

Written by: Jonas Eriksson |

There are a bunch of new racquets on the way from Wilson, Babolat, Tecnifibre, Prince, ProKennex, and more! Watch the video… This vlog called “New Racquets on the Way” will likely consist of two parts, because I only talk about Wilson Blade SW 102, Tecnifibre Tfight RS, Babolat Pure Drive (review back on Sep 1st) and […]

Pause of Play at the Western and Southern Open

Written by: Jonas Eriksson |

Today I woke up to a message of a Pause of Play at the Western and Southern Open. It’s a part of the #blacklivesmatter movement. The statement from the ATP, WTA, and USTA about the pause of play at the Western and Southern Open reads: As a sport, tennis is collectively taking a stance against […]

Why you should do tennis drills

Written by: Jonas Eriksson |

I am doing some drills together with my hitting partner and we’re both noticing the benefits. This video deals with why you should do drills. My guess is that most club players just play tennis to enjoy practice matches and tournaments.  They like tennis for exercise and the competitive element. I enjoy pretty much all […]

Tennis Court Speeds

Written by: Jonas Eriksson |

Watching the Western and Southern Open 2020, it’s clear that they have made the courts faster. So let’s talk about tennis court speeds. So why have they made the courts faster and how do tennis court speeds affect tennis? This might be obvious to some of you, but it is worth thinking about. The surface […]
