The lowest string tension on tour?
Is Adrian Mannarino playing with the lowest string tension on tour? It does seem to work very well for him though. I had the fortune to watch Adrian Mannarino’s practice session with local top player Matthew Asciak today. I also talked to Mannarino about his equipment, injuries and other tennis things. Some of it is […]

The FB group “We are all tennis nerds” is a great place to talk tennis to like-minded people. Amar was nice enough to share some pro player string tensions from Vienna Open.

Great Budget Strings
I’ve gotten requests to recommend great budget strings. There are so many different string brands on the market right now… I am frequently testing new strings of different brands and price ranges.

Artengo accessories and strings – Are they any good?
Ferenc Ferdinand Weisz is back with a review – this time dealing with Artengo accessories and strings. Word over to Ferenc. I have been playing with Artengo racquets for two years, earlier with the TR 990 Pro, and now actually with the TR 930 Spin Pro. During the last few years, I bought a lot […]
Play with softer string setups
I’ve spent one day in Sweden so far and met some local club players. I have one recommendation: Play with softer string setups! The reason I want to urge most players to play with softer string setups is that all the racquets I’ve seen today on the local scene, have been strung with something like […]
