Ferrer the silent winner
Barcelona. The tennis world moves on. Fognini beats Nadal after a spellbinding performance, then loses miserably to Andujar. Hothead Klizan is playing his best tennis in a while and will pose a threat to last year’s winner Nishikori. Or will he? Tennis is “on the daily”. Time jump. Cilic wins US Open in 2014. Has […]
Nadal in need of a new coach
You can still give him golf tips though, Toni. Toni and Rafa Nadal are the old ball and chain. They’ve had more success together than most teams in the world of sport. Still, after Rafa’s painful loss to Fabio Fognini today in the third round of the Barcelona ATP 500 tournament, a lot of people […]
Yonex Ai 98 review
Maybe the word “review” is not a fair statement when I’ve only played the stick a few hours, but here are my first impressions of the highly reviewed Yonex Ai 98. First of all, it’s very easy to get used to. It moves briskly through the air and is still remarkably arm-friendly which I don’t find […]
Wilson RF97 Autograph Review
I’ve been playing a lot of racquets lately, which is not a great strategy if you want to focus on your game, because too much attention is given to how the racquet plays and not how YOU play. Anyway, it is really important if you’re serious about your tennis that the racquet feels good in your […]
Testing Yonex Ai 98
A lot of players choose their racquets based Tennis Warehouse reviews. This is not a stupid idea, since I think their reviews are usually quite spot on, but it’s obviously a good idea to test the racquet yourself before you commit to a particular model. After all, a new tennis racquet isn’t cheap. If you […]
Djokovic wins Monte Carlo Masters
After his win against Nadal yesterday it was obvious that Djokovic would be the favourite to win the title in a match-up versus Berdych, against whom he has a 18-2 record. In the end, Djokovic defended his title from 2014, but it was tougher than most people would have predicted: 7-5 4-6 6-3 in a […]
The New King of Clay?
Djokovic beat a good Rafa 6-3 6-3 in Monte Carlo yesterday. Will he rule this clay court season or will Nadal be back to haunt him in Roland Garros? Please comment below!
ATP Monte Carlo Madness
What else can you call today’s matches in Monte Carlo? Well, madness is maybe stretching it a bit, but there were some killer match-ups and some unexpected results. If you were a betting man, it wouldn’t have been a bad idea to place a bet with William Hill tennis betting on the flamboyant Gael Monfils […]
Nadal Testing New Racquet
If you follow the excellent forums on TT Warehouse (the thread about Nadal’s new racquet), you’d find that Nadal seems to be practising with a new, blacked-out racquet. It’s not just a regular Aero Pro Drive Original in new paint, it actually has a different drill pattern in the strings. Will be interesting to see whether […]
