Wilson World Stringing Championship

By Annette Broersma, WWSC Tournament Director

At mid-day Saturday, on the plaza of the Darling Tennis Center, competitors made their way toward center court. The Tennis Channel Open was on its seventh day, and the place was packed.

Just before reaching the end of the walkway, all six men turned into a roped-off arena containing six hydraulic [sic] stringing machines on individual pedestals. A time clock was prominently displayed, an officious man was in the center of the ring holding a starter pistol, and a huge crowd gathered, as if awaiting a prize fight.

"When I give you the start, you may step onto the pedestal, open the Wilson "Reaction" string packet, place the K-Factor racquet on the machine, and string!" announced Dave Bone, Executive Director of the United States Racquet Stringer's Association (USRSA), and Referee of the Wilson World Stringing Championship. Announcer, Wayne Bryan, took over the commentary as the starter shot rang out; TV cameras were everywhere, capturing the techniques that made this group the best there is.

They are a varied group of individuals, hailing from East to West Coast, and collectively representing almost one hundred years of stringing experience. These six finalists cleared several heats to get here, and the $10,000 prize package was only 15 minutes away.

The finalists included Gilbert Gan of Northridge, CA; Rob Cortney of Voorhees, NJ; Jim Downes of Baltimore, MD; Paul Neely of Phoenix, AZ; Bryan Richter of Irvine, CA; and Joseph Heydt, of Omaha, NE.

Top seed entering this final round was Downes with a record-setting heat time of nine minutes and 30 seconds. "Less than TEN minutes?" many passers-by gasped, as they checked out the Leader Board stationed outside the Wilson booth. That time was more than a minute under last year's winner. Clocked time includes unwrapping the string, mounting the racquet, and using a 16-main, 18-cross pattern using multifilament string, which is not as easy to pull and work with as a synthetic nylon. This was truly the championship for stringing professionals, and they had the admiration of every tennis player who's had to wait hours to get their racquets strung at a local shop.

Each contestant was feverishly and systematically measuring, pulling, and weaving. Joining the hilariously funny Wayne Bryan was Jon Muir, G.M of Wilson Racquet Sports, and knowledgeable commentator on 'All Things Stringing.' As it turned out, Wayne and Jon seemed to have a contest of their own as to who could get more of the crowd laughing and involved in the event. There was no clear winner.

As most of the eyes were on Downes and Neely, side-by-side and trash-talking their way to what should have been a sure victory with their qualifying times, something unexpected happened. A quiet, long and curly-haired hippie, who did his stringing barefoot, was suddenly in the lead and on his last 3 cross strings. All eyes went to Bryan Richter as his slender arms gracefully pulled both ends simultaneously, in such a fashion that he seemed to be leading an orchestra rather than stringing a racquet.

"He's shattering the record!" shouted Muir and Bryan.

Richter removed the clamps and slammed the racket down to signal completion. "Eight minutes and forty-six seconds," came the timer's call. He had won $10,000 of prizes from Wilson and The Tennis Channel, as well as the opportunity to test to string at the U.S. Open, with high income potential and all expenses paid. "I'm stoked!" he cried as he threw his hat to the ground in the center of the ring.

As Richter took a bow, he surprised everyone by taking the microphone and singing a stringing Rap. It turns out he also produces hip hop music under a nonprofit label. Not surprising, he has a B.A. in Philosophy from Lehigh University in Pennsylvania. When asked why he has chosen to be a professional stringer, he doesn't hesitate.

"I work for the greatest guy in the world, Kirk Hybskmann, the owner of Irvine Tennis Shop. I love my job because I get to be around Kirk, we have a great time at the shop, and play (tennis) at the local City of Irvine public courts."

If you're Bryan Richter, it's a great life. Today was just a bit sweeter.

RSI Magazine Announces Champions of Tennis for 2006

Kirk Anderson, the U.S. Tennis Association’s director of recreational coaches and programs, has been named “Person of the Year” by Racquet Sports Industry magazine in the publication’s November/December 2006 issue. Anderson led off the magazine’s sixth annual “Champions of Tennis Awards,” which honors people and organizations dedicated to improving the sport and business of tennis. “Kirk is truly an amazing person within the tennis industry,” said Peter Francesconi, the editorial director of Racquet Sports Industry. “His creativity and advocacy has led to many programs that are bringing more people into the game, his upbeat attitude is easily shared by his very talented staff at the USTA, and he is totally dedicated to the recreational sport.”

RSI magazine lauded Anderson, of New Fairfield, Conn., for his “pivotal role within the industry as one of tennis’s premier teachers of tennis teachers.” Anderson, who has been involved in teaching tennis since the 1970s, joined the USTA’s national office in 1996. Prior to that, he spent two years as the director of education for the U.S. Professional Tennis Association, an organization of teaching professionals.

Ironically, Anderson was kicked off his college tennis team when he said he had taught tennis for money at a summer recreational program. After that, he said, he vowed to continue to teach and to “become the best teacher I possibly could.”

Some key initiatives Anderson currently is working on includes “Recreational Coach Workshops,” designed to get parents and other volunteers involved in teaching and coaching recreational players; a school tennis initiative that includes “no-cut” high school programs, where any student is welcome on the tennis team, and teams with dozens of players are common; and a “transition-ball” project, which uses foam balls and other low-compression balls, combined with shorter courts, to help get beginners into tennis.

RSI (www.racquetsportsindustry.com), the world’s largest magazine geared toward the tennis industry, also named winners in 16 other categories for its 2006 Champions of Tennis Awards:

• Private Facility of the Year: Midtown Tennis Center, Chicago
• Stringer of the Year: Grant Morgan, Memphis, Tenn.

Announcing the new and improved Racquet Optimizer

USRSA.com: We've improved our Racquet Optimizer on-line racquet modeling tool to allow you to experiment with adding weight at two different locations on the frame. (USRSA membership required to use the on-line tools.)

Full-cover views

It always seemed a shame that after all the time and effort that goes into designing and executing our covers, each has been relegated to a couple of measly square inches on the website. No longer! Now, if you go to the table of contents page of any issue, and click on the small image of the cover, you'll be taken to a full-size image. Also, on the navigation page for the various issues, when you place your cursor over the month-name of the magazine, you'll see the corresponding cover for that issue next to the listing.

'Sitemap' and 'urllist' files added

We've added sitemap files (listings of all the URLs, in XML format) and urllist files to both USRSA.com and racquetsportsindustry.com. These files are recommend to help search engines -- primarily Google and Yahoo! -- better crawl the site, so that when you search for information that appears on either site, you will more easily find it. Ironically, MSN Search, which seems not to pay any attention to sitemap or urllist files, has by far the best index of our site.

Announcing the Babolat Star 5

Babolat has very kindly given us permission to make available the sales brochure for its upcoming Babolat Star 5 stringing machine. This brochure, which is available to USRSA members only, is a downloadable file in Microsoft PowerPoint format. The Star 5 is scheduled for release in early 2006, with a projected U.S. list price of $3,000. Also available at additional charge are badminton adaptors and the famous Babolat stringer tool kit, each of which is shown in this brochure. (Update: For those without PowerPoint, we have also created a somewhat clunky HTML version.)

RSI navigation fixed

RSI.com: In our haste to get racquetsportsindustry.com up and available, we forgot to check to see if our pages displayed properly in all the major browsers (AOL, Camino, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Netscape, Opera, and Safari). It looked fine in Safari (of course) and IE/Mac, and our HTML and CSS code all validated just fine, so we thought we were home free. For some reason, though, AOL, Camino, Firefox, and Netscape failed to render the top navigation menu properly. Regretfully, the fix meant replacing the pure CSS top banner with a table, but at least it works.

We're up and running!

RSI.com: Our brand-new site is visible to the world for the very first time today. There are bound to be a few rough edges as we settle in, but just about all the material from RSi magazine from its premiere issue in February 2004 through the latest issue of August 2005 is available now. Keep checking back, as every month we'll make available the latest issue.
