Article Abstract:

Tennis pro Robert Lansdorp says tennis has changed because so many younger players have adopted wide-body racquets. Players want to strive for more power and fewer paced strokes. Lansdorp says the circuit players who use standard racquets and hit pure flat strokes are keeping the tradition of the game.
