Roland-Garros…A Look Back

Image

How did Roland-Garros come to be? Why is it named after an aviator? In what year was the tournament first held? Who are the legends of the game to have inscribed their name on the Coupe des Mousquetaires trophy?

Way back…

Tennis Radio, a New Frontier

Peter Freeman and I just co-hosted a new radio show called Tennis Mind that is the brainchild of Jason Lampione.  I'm sure all the hard core Tennisopolites are familiar with Peter and Jason from the site.  Here is the unedited version of our maiden voyage.  We need to iron out a few technical kinks, but all in all, it turned out to be a really fun show.  Our major guests were former professional tennis player Jeff…

Tuning Your Racket – A Revelation

As a tennis player and coach to World-class athletes, I have always been a big believer that when it comes to tennis and most other skills, it’s the Indian and not the arrow. That is to say a “hacker” is a “hacker” no matter what racket they are sporting, while on the other hand, a real player can hit with a broomstick (OK, I’m exaggerating, but you get the picture.) In fact I would say that in general I am an extreme pessimist when it comes to new equipment that is supposed to…

Toast to a Tennis Player on Titanic

The Titanic departed Southampton on April 10, 1912, with Richard WIlliams and his father, Charles, on board. (F.G.O. Stuart)

I hope you still have the same passion for the game as you did when you first started, but be wary of the day…
