Being from the West coast and having lived in the East for quite a while, I am of course bias whenever it comes to what NCAA college team I like best. First of all let me mention some local teams here in the Philadelphia area, that really deserve a ton of credit. Temple, Penn, Drexel and of course Villanova all have outstanding programs and athletes. Now when it comes to my favorite player on the NCAA…

not a gravity.
The Gravity Pro is my primary racquet, I was a massive Wilson and Babolat person before, but Head is now where it’s at for me. So let’s talk about the balance of power and control.

Most coaches will tell you that you have to learn control first, as you can always generate more power later. That is why most shots you make as a beginner end up just bulking up your enforced error percentages. This racquet will not come with a ton of power right out of the box. You will need to train, and trai ..read more

I think it is fair to say that Roger Federer is the G.O.A.T. of tennis. Now, by all means I am no expert on the subject, and anyone who has been reading my posts can vouch of that.

It is important to estabish good habits early, and as I said before, a coach is instrumental in teaching you how to be a (good) player. A great coach will teach way more than that. It will be much harder to fix bad habits in the future than create good ones now, that is why I highly recommend taking a few lessons, whether personal or group lessons. You could also pick up cardio tennis classes at your local health center. In cardio clinics and group classes, the advantage is you will learn from each other, on top of getting pointers from your coach. Personal lessons will be more tailored to you ..read more
