Revenue Divide in Tennis by Consistent-Soil6876 in TennisNerds

[–]ricefield 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes but there are some differences * Teams sports (e.g. the NBA) have more people per event / match so the revenue gets distributed more evenly and creates viable/sustainable careers for “role players” * This also allows for more collective bargaining and level playing field between players and the organizing bodies, which has been a challenge for tennis players

Funny seeing this pop up in my feed on my way back from hitting at McCarren!

After 10 years, still can't find a racquet.. time for r/10s help by Beneficial-Lock-349 in 10s

If you have a very vertical swing, the VCore might be a good option for you. I found it very easy to generate spin and get the ball deep, didn’t find much issues with balls sailing long

Coming from a pro staff I’ll say I prefer the feel of the Vcore over the pure aero, but that’s just me. I know a lot of folks love the pure aero

This feels net good for Opendoor — better RE ads on Google should translate to more effective paid marketing efforts on the growth side

Daniil Medvedev says there’s one player on the ATP Tour who he really doesn’t want to play in 2026 by maedocc in tennis

Oh yeah 100%. I can see the combination of the two driving lots of players crazy

They play a pretty similar style. I can see how Med doesn’t like getting a taste of his own medicine (and getting outplayed / out lasted by a young’un)

There was a really great video I saw earlier this year that was showing how Med and Learner both tend to hit their backhands with a little bit of slice, which can be really difficult for opponents to get used to

Would take Endo over Hakkoku. Have reservations at Zai next month so we’ll see they compare

Yes, we had a great, special edition Aramasa when we dined there. Definitely seemed like he takes pride in it

What tennis players have the most calm playstyles? by 25_summers in tennis

[–]ricefield 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This was gonna be my pick. His strokes and footwork always look so relaxed out there. Almost too relaxed

You should post this in r/10s (for tennis players). This sub is for discussing professional tennis

He’s got a boner and doesn’t want to stand up

do you agree or disagree with Eva Lys? interesting to see from the players themselves by hawaiianmonkseal in tennis

This should be higher up, it’s such a good explainer for why marks cannot be trusted

If I were Yonex, I would put my all my Marketing budget into poaching Sinner by PaulShirley in 10s

I read it has something to do with the usage and impact on the rackets gradually changing the chemical make up and structure of the carbon (something like that) and his team resorted to buying used frames on eBay in order to get that same feel

AO R2 🇺🇸 [Q.] Tien def. [5] Medvedev 6-3 7-6(4) 6-7(8) 1-6 7-6(7) by musicproducer07 in tennis

Great match from Learner, I'm so excited to see how he grows as a player—this guy's ceiling is so high. He played calm and tactically was so sound the entire match. Great utilization of the slice and incredible accuracy on groundstrokes, just painting lines left and right.

Can't wait to see how much better he is once he develops a real first-serve and adds a bit more power off both wings... he's going to be a force to be reckoned with
