銀派 or Silver Pi. The theory is that the imaginative circumference of your swing path should equal the value of pi when divided by your swing diameter. Once you achieve that, it'll produce the miraculous effect of silver bullet for your stroke. Wearing jewelry made of silver with the symbol...

For Hayata to go, Ishikawa has to go. The problem boils down to the doubles. Both Ishikawa and Hayata are left-handed, making it naturally difficult. In case of Ishikawa/Ito/Hayata, they will essentially be limited to Ishikawa/Ito and Ito/Hayata for doubles. In either case, Ito will have to...

WTTC 1997 is an important tournament statistically and historically as it was the last time we had 2 European finalists in men's singles in the era of 38mm, 21 point, hidden serve and speedglue. It also signaled the decline of the European golden generation. Overall, the stats for 2000s are...

If anything, the stats actually indicate there has been a sharp decrease in long serves. Players still serve to the short center the most, but serves to the short FH has increased. WTTC 1997, Men's Team QF & SF, Wang Tao, KLH, Waldner, Persson, KTS, YNK...

Turning pro at 18 when it used to be 14. There goes 1 Olympic cycle.

The Diamond tier events will be vital for Ito. She's in the lead right now on the World Tour Standing, the top 15 of which will be invited. At this rate, Ishikawa, Ito, and Hirano will go. Looking really grim for Hayata.

Some stats. For Sydney Olympics, Waldner served long 34 times out of 60 total in 3 games against LGL in the SF. In contrast, he served long 10 times out of 90 total in 5 games against KLH in the F. http://www.chinatyxk.com/editer/doc/2006841739512920.pdf
