Via ATP Worl Tour. Great concept, but the editing is pretty horrible. I was thinking about this exact same thing, but with a GoPro camera. Would also be cool to insert a small camera into Fed's bandana. Then, switch to that view if you so desirer during the match. This would make tennis on tv more interesting. Don't even get me started on the camera angles. We need that low court view.

Enjoy!

GC,

You beat me to it! I was going to post this as well. I agree, the editing is tough to really get a feel and perspective of the ball striking.

However, not to be outdone, Tomas Berdych posted something very similar a few years back using a GoPro camera. check this out...

Fernando Verdasco Hires Thomas Enqvist as his coach

Yet another Swede throwing his hat in the coaching ring.

Verdasco hires Enqvist. Very cool stuff. Always enjoyed Enqvist. A player that had some technical quirks but squeezed the most out of his game to end multiple years in the top 10 and an aussie open final appearance.

Great link. Especially since I didn't know about Thiem and I was able to immediately turn on TennisTV and see Thiem taking the second set from Murray in Rotterdam.

Kid's got talent. If he is willing to pay the kind of price outlined in that piece, he could be a rising star.

Not bad...and a one-hander...like Gasquet he enjoys hitting it most when 10 feet or more behind the baseline. He moves well. He reads the game well too which makes even quicker. I skimmed through the clip and didn't see Murray wrong foot him or catch him off balance once. Interesting...

Roger Federer's Backhand Slice

This is a wicked slice backhand from Federer during the recent match at the Swiss Indoors (against Denis Istomin). Hawkeye now does spin rates as well. Pretty cool.

Roger Federer is going to do a "Ask Me Anything" or AMA as they called it on www.reddit.com tomorrow may 24th at 1h30pm EDT.

I want to let the community of tennisplayer.net knows that this is a big occasion to ask him questions online. Hopefully, if some of you can participate tomorrow, it's going to be really great and I'm sure you guys have interesting questions!
