So many new rubbers because of the new ball and professionals do not change anything, it is quite doubtful this type of marketing....

Just out of curiosity, have you guys ever had 1 of those days where you played so horrible and missed like 90% of your shots? I have had days like that before.

The other day during when we were training, one of the players was off to the Junior national championships. I played her, lost 11-9 but irritate it took me so long to start attacking but overall played well. At about 5-6 we lost the ball I brought back another but she wouldn't play with that...

Hello players, I´ve been thinking for a while, what will happen if the ball weight will be increased by two of three times. I think it will make the ball harder and increase the contact time. But also it could reduce the speed, because of the higher mass and increase the spin, since the contact...
