    I just heard that Pete started limping during this afternoon's match against Chris Loschetter. I'd hate to see him have to withdraw due to an injury.

    His high backswing is amazing. I've been trying to raise mine for more mph but it throws me off. I need more than 11-12 mph.

    Lou, a high backswing is not the only way to generate faster
    ball speed, most of the time faster footwork is the best way
    to gain some extra ball speed.

    Doesn't he normally have a more open hand, palm up, at the top of his follow through? Was a bummer watching him limp around after each shot.

    You're right about his hand usually being more open, not so sure about his palm facing up.
