Racquets or string? Polyester for kids & testing racquets: Equipment talk with Philippe Oudshoorn
Description
What's more important to a player, the racquet or the string?
Should kids be using polyester strings?
What's the best way to test racquets?
These are some of the questions we asked racquet specialist, and Head of USA Marketing for Tecnifibre, Philippe Oudshoorn.
Philippe is an incredible resource to have because his knowledge of these things is directly from the player and coach's perspective. Before joining Tecnifibre, Philippe played collegiate tennis at the University of Virginia, then professional tennis, coached collegiately at George Washington and UCF, and finally as a National Coach for USTA Played Development.
There's no better person to talk to then Philippe when it comes to equipment. Tecnifibre provides Grand Slam winners (Daniil Medvedev, Iga Swiatek, Joe Salisbury), many top professionals, and top juniors with the best equipment in the world.
