Djoko's dropshot is so well masked, its effective. And he is able to cover the court well. I think he'll be the man to beat for the title.

CK you are absolutely right....if you guys can recall how Del Poltro won a set off Djokovic was by hitting insanely deep and close to the baseline....if Nadal ball are landing short but kicking up....he can kiss his trophy goodbye..........unless he use's his short angles and moves Djokovic from side to side....but lets wait coz I see Federer looking supremely confident, I hope he can end Novaks run, but we will see ...............

Also the Troki Vs Murray match....I think Troki has the game to trouble Murray, even if Murray has a slight ankle injury.

CK, our order eta is mid Jun. I order one strung with volkl power fiber II and another pack Andrenaline to hybrid nextime..... heard from a coach this poly provides crips feel......hope so......

I think Fed knows he can't afford to play high error margin game on clay..... his rally is longer than usual....... some1 (annocone?) or himself set this strategy? Hope he can win this tourny....

hehe, ya too many nice rackets.. how to resist em..

oh ya, tried my speed last week.. kinda not used to the racket yet.. the strings also are kinda sucky as its a cheap synthetic gut.. i'll try to string it up with my usualy strings and then give a proper review cos seems like i dont quite like the feel of the strings.. not sure its the racket or the strings. haha

Prince exo3s paintjob is the worst I've ever encountered in a racket. The paint chips off easily and its soft as well. The shiny bright orange on the ports comes off easily.

How do i know all this? I manage to leave a deep gash on the yoke area while stringing. And upon checking the racket further, there were other damage due to prevous stringer as well..most likely due from stringing machine also. Grr...

On a good note though, the racket swings freely due to the hl balance. The maneuverability is as good as my 4d100. My only complaint is that it lacks power.

Wow, really so bad meh the PJ?
The orange part at the ports is expected coz from the looks the paint surely will wear off from friction with the strings.
The orange is prayed on rather that the original colour of the plastic itself.

But you meantion paint soft kinda makes me worry.

The damage on the orange part i saw is on the outer area, the damage pattern looks consistent with a home run ball, hit with the outside of the racket. Will try to post pictures tonight.

BTW Inv just checking reading your comments, did you pull the plug and buy a stringing machine? May I ask what model and if possible price, if too sensitive can either PM me as well, if cannot divulge your lobang , I completely understand too. Any chance you can take pics of your stringing baby as well <3.

Hey prae, the pictures of the machine can be seen here.

as for the damage on the exo3 tour,

the scratch on the orange part cannot be the result from the ground, coz it's very near the end towards the handle area, no way can scratch the ground from any angle. scratches on both side of the racket as well, around the same area.

WTF the scratch at the side is unacceptable la.


Added on May 30, 2011, 9:25 pmNadal's backhand is unable to create those crazy angles.
If he don't have it he's gone.
Now after down the line the backhand is hit to the centre of court.


Added on May 30, 2011, 10:23 pmLook forward to the Simon & Soderling match.
It's Simon vs Goliath.

You guys know that Djokovic had to play consecutive days for a while now, well it seems he is off for 4 days his quarter final opponent who fought so hard in his 5 set against Montanes, pulled out of the tournament hence Novak has a walkover in the quarter finals, he is already in the semi finals!!!

Hey noticed Troicki was using the old ozone tour racquet instead of the exo3.
The big round holes were a dead give-away.
Also you guys say the slow-mo that when Davydenko lost to the guy ranked 200+ Devic or something, he was cursing at his Dunlop racquet.
Hahahahah..... no longer using the blackened Prince.
