Yoshihito Nishioka’s Racquet
The Japanese 21-year-old Yoshihito Nishioka stood for possibly the biggest upset in this year’s edition of Indian Wells so far (on par with Pospisil beating Murray?) when he defeated Tomas Berdych 1-6 7-6 6-4 in a thriller of a tennis match. Nishioka is one of the shorter players on the tour with his 1.73 meters above […]
Indian Wells 2017: Federer d Robert
After Murray’s surprising loss to Pospisil, you started wondering if there were more upsets in the pipeline in the 2017 edition of Indian Wells.

Noah Rubin’s Racquet
Another young, big-hitting American is Noah Rubin. He runs fast and swings fast, but is maybe not the most versatile tennis player in the world (yet). He uses a Head Instinct pro stock mould with the pro stock code TGT 297.1 strung with the ever-popular Solinco Hyper-G 16L. I’m unsure about the exact specs in terms […]
How to cure racquet buying addiction
This post says “How to cure racquet buying addiction“, but I must admit it is a bit click-baity for you racquetholics, because I haven’t found the cure! It’s just too much fun to try new frames and when you can sell them second hand to other racquetholics, it doesn’t hurt your wallet as much as […]
