I've been teaching tennis over 30+ years, and like a good & honest car mechanic which is nearly…read moreimpossible to find, a dependable & CAPABLE stringer is no different. Passionate tennis players are quite fussy about their string jobs, this is why the G.O.A T - Roger Federer brings along his private stringer Ron Yu (feel free to Google, no BS!) to Grand slam events, this shows how important a good string job is, and not all string jobs are equal. At Grand Slam events, they got their own official tournament stringers to service all players, but why bring & having to pay, Roger is a smart dude! https://www.cbsnews.com/news/roger-federer-us-open-meet-the-man-who-strings-roger-federers-tennis-rackets-ron-yu-2019-09-07/ While playing, I ran into GC-Stringing Service folks, a few minutes of chat, I already knew the dude knows his stuff. Finally, my NXT string which was strung by an amateur (probably cheap labors teenagers) by my local tennis center, in a month, two strings broke at the top of my racquets near the grommets. A typical breakage happens near the center of the racquets as the topspin strokes, whether forehand or backhand, as the brushing actions bring two adjacent strings together. If not spread them out from time to time, this stresses out the entire string bed putting extra pressure on others parts, just like if your hurt an ankle, you'd compensate by loading on other foot; and over time, this creates aches & pains on the other one as well. GC string uses the latest string machines on the market, they employ the world's most technically advanced, tension precise, expensive ($17k!!!!), and rarest (less than 100 in the world) stringing machines - the Yonex Precision 9.0 - as a momento. The Yonex Precision 9.0 is the only machine permitted for use at the Australian Open and almost no Tennis Pro Shops worldwide have this machine! The results are simply amazing,band at the pickup, he will take the time to explain what he'd done & other recommendations to enhance your racquet's playability. He's very thorough, and keeps dialogues ongoing, so you ALWAYS know when to drop off, pick up, and what & where to pay! In summary, from a seasoned tennis coach, I highly recommend GC-STRINGING Service to any passionate tennis players everwhere. Do not go to Sports Basement, etc, go to a TRUE pro! You bought your Ferrari, now have GC-STRINGING put on a good set of strings (tires) for your racquet, that will definitely enhance your chance of enjoying tennis, and even winning!

While…read morehe seemed to be able to hit and would occasionally win some matches, we know his fundamentals were lacking in every aspect. We've thus searched high and low for a place that provides systematic, well-structured instruction and has major focus on fundamentals. We learned about Brookside Tennis Training from a tennis friend who spoke highly of their solid training and were instantly amazed by how their philosophy aligns with ours and knew that we are at the right place. The team led by Steve utilizes Great Base Tennis Education curriculum. The dedication to every detail of the fundamentals is truly something I'd never seen out there, as most places would jump to tactics that mainly aim for quick win once kids can hit. Here the pros put in every bit of effort to help the kids build up and cement whatever it needs to become a real player down the road. Programs are rigorously tailored for different levels. In clinics there are 2-3 coaches working with divided groups, so every kid gets sufficient amount of attention and practice. While the clinics can heavily focus on technique-based drills, coaches do an excellent job incorporating fun points play to keep kids engaged and challenged. Our son started off in Development but soon moved to Challenger starting this May. Less than half year in we are seeing him not only making significant progress in his technique but also becoming disciplined and motivated on and off the court. He used to like "playing" tennis, now he is enthusiastic and loving this sport full-heartedly. Brookside Tennis is definitely the place for any player who wants to bring their game to the next level.

The Mubadala Silicon Valley Tennis Classic is a WTA Ladies 500 level tournament starting about 3…read moreweeks after the conclusion of Wimbledon and is the unofficial/official beginning to the North American hard-court season. It is located right on the campus of San Jose State University next to the football stadium. I believe the tournament was formerly called the SAP Tennis Classic played indoors at the SAP Center where the NHL's San Jose Sharks host their hockey games. But now here at San Jose State, being outdoors in early August, there is nothing like it! The weather was 90 degrees, but because of no humidity, it felt like 75 degrees. Quick little tidbit...I am from South Florida and there is so much heat and humidity and afternoon rain showers, yet here in beautiful San Jose, California...the weather was simply perfect without a cloud in the sky! I believe moving this tournament outdoors to San Jose State was a brilliant idea. This last summer of 2021, lol, yes, I attended every day of the tourney starting from Monday August 2nd - Friday, August 6th and skipped the last 2 days being Saturday and Championship Sunday. Overall, let's just say...I had quite a FUN TIME throughout the week watching the best tennis players in the world practice and compete! What a joy to watch such talented athletes! For these 5 consecutive days, it was truly memorable. I rarely hung out and watched any matches in the big stadium court. I basically stayed on the 4 outer courts and watched the players practice and train all day long. For the first 3 days of the tournament...they did feature 1 of the outer courts with doubles matches. Just a side note I'd like to mention...there is truly nothing like a professional tennis player working hard on the courts all day long to achieve their lifelong goals. They start playing when they're small children. I believe tennis is the most difficult/discipline training of any pro sport in the world! The best thing I was excited about was getting up close to all the players. I maybe took selfie pictures with 25 of the participants. And I must say this right now...even with the pandemic going on this past summer of 2021, (masks were optional to wear if you'd been vaccinated though they don't check you, they go with the honor system) the players were SO FRIENDLY and when I asked to take a picture with them, they happily obliged! How cool. You would think that their health could be in jeopardy getting close to strangers, yet all players were cordial and were okay with stopping for a moment when entering or leaving the practice courts to stop for a selfie. Here were just a few of the top players I took pictures with... - Daria Kasatkina - Madison Keys - Elise Mertens - Dayana Yastremska - Elena Rybakina - Amanda Anisimova - Yulia Putintseva Ticket prices were cheap. On Monday they were $20 for pretty much general admission and by Friday they were up to $33...all worth it to watch world class tennis. I arrived here each morning at 9am when they opened the gates and stayed till the last day session match ended around 5pm - 6pm. They do not allow outside food on the grounds. You must buy any food or refreshments from the area inside the giant picnic tent. For myself I grabbed a big breakfast ahead of time before entering and was fine with waiting till I departed before having dinner. But that's just me. I'm not a big lunch person so I was satisfied enjoying the tennis without sitting down to eat a midday meal. If you gave me the choice to eat or watch and get photos with professional tennis players...sign me up for the latter, lol! For parking, you can pay $10 each day to park across the street from the tournament. I had no issues leaving my car on a side street 2 blocks down the way and simply walking over. I actually parked on a side street every day for the 5 days I attended and never had an issue with getting a violation. Plus, this area of San Jose next to the school is located in a good residential neighborhood. I genuinely hope for 2022, I can return here and experience this tourney all over again. It's a 5-star experience! This is the Mubadala Silicon Valley Tennis Classic located on the campus of San Jose State University in San Jose, California!
