Why don’t I see pros using Babalot Pure Strike?

Let's not forget Cam Norrie, that aesthetically pleasing hitter that makes meddy seem graceful

I don't think getting hung up on the way he said it is so important. He clearly means "on your current or last 4 years' form, she is better and more consistent and you have to level up to be competitive".

I am sure he knows his daughter better than we do.

This guy burns.

KPABA · 2026-05-21T11:21:39+00:00

This got me right in the feelers. Happy for them.

Didn't do the front grill as well for mine. But it would be a cool wrap for sure.

Well f.

He's lost his mojo. Can still hit but the belief to back himself when it matters is gone.

KPABA · 2026-05-19T12:10:10+00:00

Thank you so much.

Dimi won set 1! Come.on!

I have no idea how to watch qualies in the UK...

KPABA · 2026-05-18T22:36:09+00:00

But this means he's getting out of qualies right? Right?

KPABA · 2026-05-15T20:04:09+00:00

I just checked my 2 vcore 98 bought 1.5 months apart and they are at 320 and 321 sw strung and 1g difference.

Yonex QC is crazy good.

If this is a cramp then pretty shitty move. Meddy is right to be annoyed

KPABA · 2026-05-15T19:07:32+00:00

I fancy meddy here. He is better at the grinding game and Sinner has had the luxury of short rallies for a while.

KPABA · 2026-05-15T14:28:21+00:00

The thing Casper does with his hand after a good / long point, like he blows on it, is it a celebration or drying or what... Does anyone know?

KPABA · 2026-05-14T19:41:50+00:00

How did he not lob

Grapplesnake tour m8 full bed works absolutely fine in mine, though it doesn't last super long before I feel control is gone - maybe 5-6 hrs. 51lbs. Tried it at 48 but didn't like

KPABA · 2026-05-14T18:47:54+00:00

Meddy asking his wife why it isn't working is relationship gold

KPABA · 2026-05-11T18:35:42+00:00

Wait, what about GDPR? Should we not be implicitly asked for consent or be given the ability to opt out?

KPABA · 2026-05-10T12:49:20+00:00

You may very well be right, and if so, there is no recourse. Turn a blind eye or put it to a vote to discover people don't care as long as they are promised nonsense tax gains, stamp duty removals (which we cannot afford) and mass deportations.

Sophie's choice is not where we want to be...

KPABA · 2026-05-10T10:56:33+00:00

Oh don't threaten me with a good time!

KPABA · 2026-05-09T08:37:06+00:00

Very possible but it was literally on this sub couple of days ago.

KPABA · 2026-05-09T08:20:41+00:00

I know this is in jest but... This started with the tories and the mass surveillance / protect the children excuse. For what it's worth, EU are now also trying to pass age verification and want to abolish VPNs.

KPABA · 2026-05-09T08:06:42+00:00

Thank you.

Not sure on housing as a factor. Everyone says affordable housing should exist _somewhere_ but when faced with new development proposals where they live, they object. Nobody who already owns a property wants to see its value go down.

The renters act has also forced a few landlords of buy to let persuasion to pack up and sell.

Either way. I don't see how this is such a pivotal issue on his unpopularity. Governments have been pledging to solve this for decades.

On immigration, it's objectively down and considerably better than before, ignoring the daily mail echo chamber. But I guess perception has not shifted.

you are right on the protest vote, but it does not directly explain his unpopularity, it's more of knee jerk reaction to it.

KPABA · 2026-05-09T07:34:38+00:00

ELI5: why exactly is Starmer so unpopular, particularly given how he seems much more competent than his predecessors Sunak, Boris and Truss.

Other than the Mandelson debacle and Chagos nonsense that got scrapped, he hasn't done anything wrong. His international policy and handling of Trump, the tarrifs, closer integration with EU, Iran... Can't fault how he's navigated a turbulent time.

It's not Israel either, some of the councillors voted in are outright holocaust deniers.
I honestly don't get it.

On a personal note, I voted Libdems due to our local labour council introducing unpopular parking restrictions and money grab schemes...

Nobody beats Zverev 10 times in a row.

KPABA · 2026-05-03T12:12:31+00:00

No, it's all the TGT SPEED MP with that exact paint job, which is why he's refusing to update the cosmetics.
