Jennifer Capriati will make her tour debut at the French Open!
Re: [Grand Slam] Roland Garros 2010 - Entry Open

Correction, I have decided not to play French Open or join the tour. I do not like that there is no rule about returning inside the baseline.
Re: [Grand Slam] Roland Garros 2010 - Entry Open

You can get aced, however if you get use to returning way inside it becomes a huge advantage, you can return it so quick that when your the server you literally will not have time to properly return the ball. that is why itst banned it, was whats called a exploit of the game. Unfortunatly every game has exploits and ts3 biggest ones are returning inside the baseline and tramline serving.
Re: [Grand Slam] Roland Garros 2010 - Entry Open

I played who plays Venus and it really irritated me to be honest. Then it hit me that there was
no rule for that on this tour. I lost alot of points because when you have a serve motion and its barely done were you can react and the ball is right there already because someone is inside the baseline at best your going to hit a off balance shot. Its one thing to just hit a great return off a serve or a winner but when your inside the baseline its just unfair advantage.
Re: [Grand Slam] Roland Garros 2010 - Entry Closes Friday the 21st of May

IKR :help:

I think we'll make our behind-baseline-returning rule a test here and see if it helps. No returning inside the baseline at RG :worship: WTF have I just got myself into...
Well in that case J Capriati would like to request a wildcard for the French Open. Believe me unless i figure out my rusty serve you guys could break me returning from the stands. I have majore Sharapova yips lol.

I had no idea there were so many aces in the match. I need to beef up my stats like
everyone else LOL. I kept having issues with your returns would handcuff me and so
my next shot would have nothing on it.
Re: [Grand Slam] Roland Garros 2010 - Play has begun!

Well im normally a aggressive player but im not use to the womens game
since I have played mens game. I was out hit here because I was basically
not able to hit through justin much so I think alot of my points were forced
errors for him. My serving was not good. I just came through on alot of the
big points and Justin big defecit was i notice he got predictable on big points lol.
