Gilles Simon was called to the tournament after the No. 1 Rafael Nadal announced he will withdraw the tournament due to injury and fatigue. The 13-time Grand Slam champion, Roger Federer had an injury on his back and withdrew a couple weeks ago at the Paris Masters to rest and prepare for this final tournament. However his lack of serve in this match against Simon and his interminable errors, gave the French an easy way to achieve the victory. Federer had 50 unforced errors compared to 38 from Simon, and the Swiss serve was more slow than usual, that gave the Frenchman an advantage in the game. Although, at the beginning of the match, the Swiss seemed comfortable and ready to play as he defeated the Frenchman 6-4 in the first set and was winning 3-2 in the second set. Nevertheless Simon got back on track by breaking some points and minimizing his errors and at the end, the French played almost perfectly in the last two sets and Federer finished with fatal errors. The Swiss expressed t …

I once heard John McEnroe say that it is very different to learn to play with a wood racket and get handed a high tech racket, than it is to learn to play on one of those rackets. He couldn’t have been more correct. It was natural that the new technology in rackets would lead to the big serve first, followed by the big groundstrokes. Sampras epitomized that change. He forced the game to a new level. Then Federer arrived and was unbeatable for over 3 years. The game had to leap again and it did. It took time for coaches and players to realize that the same technology that gives power to the rackets has also increased the ability for accuracy and variety. The string manufacturers got into the game and before anyone had realized, players could do amazing things to a ball. I watched Federer hit a shot that must have curved 2 feet, intentionally. Anyone ever see Laver or Conners curve a ball? Now it seems that the court people have added their input and the courts have been slowed. No one, …

Check for the battery life: Battery life is one of the most important factors for consideration when buying a tennis ball machine. You can either go for the standard electricity or the built in rechargeable batteries. Usually the built in battery operates up to 5 hrs on a single overnight charge. Check for the oscillation capacity of the machine: Entire game of tennis is based on beat and the cadence of the ball.

Tennis elbow is very common and also very treatable. In the game of tennis, tennis elbow is generally caused when a player uses bad body mechanics or incorrect equipment weight/sizes or a combination of the both. Basically if you play tennis regularly with a racquet that is too heavy for your arm and you strike the ball using incorrect technique you could cause a repetitive stress injury. Technically, the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) defines tennis elbow as a degenerative condition of the tendon fibers on the outside of the elbow. These tendons are responsible for anchoring the muscles that extend or lift the wrist and hand. AAOS statistics show that while it occurs mostly in patients aged 30-50 it can and does occur in all age groups. As many as half of athletes in racquet sports (tennis, squash, racquetball) are affected - and there is not usually a specific trauma reported that sets off the symptoms. That means it can sneak up on you before you ever figure out yo …

Overall, tennis has been a very tempting sport. This has often kept the instruments of the game at the backdrop. Even they have been very important in letting the game prosper as it has. Imagine what the stars would do without tennis racquets or balls or even tennis bags. You would never imagine if not being told, that a tennis racket holds a world in itself there are so many points to ponder. Professional racquets come with a thin beam width. This offers greater range and flexibility to a player even as it adds to the quality of drop shots. These give greater control over shots. These racquets are also ergonomic in nature.

First, before you make a solid commitment to either play or coach tennis there are some things that you should know first. Many who may not even be attracted to the game of tennis itself are still intrigued by the history of it. Tennis or at least versions of tennis can be traced back to ancient Greek civilizations. Many of those cultures enjoyed the sport for literally centuries. Of course, it is unlikely that they called it tennis as that was not dubbed until 1874 which is also when it became a common game worldwide. First the French tool a liking to it, then the people from Portugal, then England, and from there it flourished. The game of tennis is played in what is called a “court.” The dimensions of this court are standard 78×27. Normally a tennis court is made of a clay like or concrete playing area that is required for the game to be played correctly. The court is literally divided in half by a net and one player is on each side of the net. Each player holds what is called a ra …
