    This proves my point I have been making for years. Todays tennis players could not perform at all if they had to use traditional equipment, their game is reduced by 99% when using traditional equipment. Therefore you have to conclude that todays equipment is ASSISTING the player artificially and therefore their strokes today are not due to natural talent but it’s the artificial handicap from the new technology. Furthermore no player today can conclude that they are the greatest because they are claiming this while using the modern artificial equipment. As I stated many times the players from the past era were so much more talented as the skill had to come from within there was no assistance from any technology. This is a major reason why tennis has lost its charisma personality popularity today because the harder and faster the ball goes it takes away from the personality of the game. In this video there was better shot making more skill it was more fun to watch there was more friendly gestures, when the ball is slowed up it opens the game up to skills that are not present today. If they volleyed it would have even been better. And the one player who said ‘it’s because of this’. Yes he made mistakes not because of the racket but because he lacked the skill to handle the ball using that racket. No real sport allowed their equipment to change to assist the player. Baseball and football are the two perennial sports that contain the best athletes and their equipment has not changed. Tennis today is finished all due to the technology they allowed in. It’s boring and robotic and it’s all baseline. And the technology is performing, not the player. It’s why there are 40 million pickle ball players now and only 1.5 million tennis players that are active in the US.

Contrasting personalities like Dimi and Rublev, that don't mind hamming it up in front of the cameras; combined with unique and fun "on-court" tennis challenges is an absolute winner in my books.

    It's partly because his playstyle is centered on more flat shots rather than heavy topspin

    As Grigor said, he can play flat, and with such a small head racket, playing with massive spin is nearly impossible. His technique is impeccable as well, a joy to watch.

    I learned tennis around 1975 as a 13 year old. Of course, most racquets were wood. I got into tennis pretty hard and played on my high school tennis team and I got quite good. My last wooden racquet was a Donnay Borg model-awesome racquet. Went to college and didn't play for a number of years. When I picked it back up around 1992, all the racquets were composite construction and oversized heads. The first time I played with it, I felt like it was impossible to mis-hit the ball! The head was so huge it was easy to hit in the sweet spot every time. I felt like the game got too easy with these new racquets. Now of course the game is very different. I would love to see some of the current/recent stars have to play with the old wooden racquets. I wonder if the pure power players wouldn't be as (relatively) good as they are with the current racquets. I wonder if the current players with more touch and finesse would still be as relatively good (Federer, for example).

    Wilson Jack Kramer, a beautiful racquet. It was my first tennis racquet back in 1975. Technology didn't change as quickly as today, it was already more than 20 years since it was introduced.

    Grigori looks so stylish with that vintage wool and all white outfit and wooden racquet. He is a true ambassador of the sport in its classic heritage. We have no Roger anymore, but there is still Dimitrov carrying the torch. --- Well, pretty nice idea this was; lottery through the game's history. And as a stingy final note: Grigorette won the clash of decades but Rublo took the Monte Carlo Masters title. To each their own.

    I think Roger because of his playability. Roger and Grigor have similar play style and their groundstrokes have basically the same movement. It’s called a classic/vintage style and way to play the game. Otherwise, Rafa’s style is more modern than Roger’s/Grigor’s, so idk, maybe it would be a funny game to watch.

    This proves my point I have been making for years. Todays tennis players could not perform at all if they had to use traditional equipment, their game is reduced by 99% when using traditional equipment. Therefore you have to conclude that todays equipment is ASSISTING the player artificially and therefore their strokes today are not due to natural talent but it’s the artificial handicap from the new technology. Furthermore no player today can conclude that they are the greatest because they are claiming this while using the modern artificial equipment. As I stated many times the players from the past era were so much more talented as the skill had to come from within there was no assistance from any technology. This is a major reason why tennis has lost its charisma personality popularity today because the harder and faster the ball goes it takes away from the personality of the game. In this video there was better shot making more skill it was more fun to watch there was more friendly gestures, when the ball is slowed up it opens the game up to skills that are not present today. If they volleyed it would have even been better. And the one player who said ‘it’s because of this’. Yes he made mistakes not because of the racket but because he lacked the skill to handle the ball using that racket. No real sport allowed their equipment to change to assist the player. Baseball and football are the two perennial sports that contain the best athletes and their equipment has not changed. Tennis today is finished all due to the technology they allowed in. It’s boring and robotic and it’s all baseline. And the technology is performing, not the player. It’s why there are 40 million pickle ball players now and only 1.5 million tennis players that are active in the US.
