    I’m a literary agency, and I’ve been approached by the agent for Rick Macci to find a co-writer to help him write a book. Preferably said writer would be able to sit down with him in Boca Raton, FL, and ask the pertinent questions.

    If interested, please send me your vita or resume so that I can forward it to Rick’s agent.

    Sincerely,

    –Daniel Bial

    Hi Mark

    As an avid tennis player and big fan of the sport, I find great value in tennis news blogs such as yours and read them often. As most of your readers are tennis players like myself, I thought I’d let you know about a website you may want to share with others through your blog.

    The site is called Juump (www.juump.com). It is an online tennis community helping people find courts and players right in their neighborhood. Juump solves the biggest problem…players cannot find compatible people to play with in their vicinity. With Juump, you can FIND players and groups who play at your favorite courts, MEET players with similar skill levels, interests and schedules, and PLAY more tennis.

    I’ve recently been involved in helping to spread the word of this free service to tennis players worldwide. Having been following your blog and its tennis coverage, I think your readers would be very interested to learn about this great new service that helps tennis fans get more involved by playing more often.

    Please check out the site, create a profile and let me know what you think. It’s been getting great reviews from users and as our community continues to grow, more and more people play more tennis.

    If you’d like more detailed information I’d be happy to provide it to you. I’m looking forward to hearing your thoughts.

    TO RICHARD – my last email to him bounced back:

    I saw you on the Tennis Ch. and thought I’d write oncemore. I forget if I sent you the attachment previously of an INSTANT BUZZER in tennis which would solve the problems of line’s people errors and the whole Challenge System. It would ELIMINATE THEM! Can you imagine the end of lines-people as a thing that really could be achieved soon? It all depends on getting Hawk-Eye/Shot-Spot computers to recognize an OUT-ball much quicker…and ring a buzzer.

    I have sent the idea out to numerous tennis people with virtually no response. I have mailed hardcopies to John McEnroe’s Academy hoping he would get behind the idea and push (computer-people) for an INSTANT BUZZER.

    Thought I’d give it a shot – maybe you could pass it along to someone appropriate in the tennis community. Coming from little ol’ me, no one listens. This IS the future; it’s just a matter of when will tennis decide to develop and use it?

    I received a response from a person at the Hawk-Eye Company who told me it was not up to them to develop the INSTANT BUZZER. I wrote back that it was squarely on the shoulders of companies like Shot-Spot and Hawk-Eye to develop this FIRST…then, present it to tennis authorities. Never heard back from the person…or got a response from Johnny Mac, of course.

    One day, I’ll see tennis WITH THE INSTANT OUT-BUZZER and tell people, ‘see that…I thought of that first, but no one heard me.’

    Take care. Love to hear what you thought. THANKS. Sincerely, Doug

    old email:

    (Hi Doug:
    Thank you- I will read this tomorrow when I get in. Thanks so much for sending it. I am looking forward to it!

    all the best,
    Richard)

    Don’t you guys think that there is something awefully fishy about the fact that neither Roddick nor the Bryan brothers are playing the tie in Colombia? For a tie that has the importance of this one, as well as the fact that it will be P.McEnroe’s last tie, you would think that, at the very least, the Bryans would come down to secure that ever so important doubles point. I’m not a conspiracy theorist by any strech of the imagination, but coudl it be that the current players are not happy with McEnroe’s leadership and would not really mind to see his leguacy tarnished by losing to a lower tier team like Colombia? I know Roddick is not exaclty a powerhouse on clay but he can perform just as well, if not better, than Fish or Querrey and on topof that his Davis Cup record is stellar. Im confused about all this….

  • Author comment by Scoop Malinowski · September 19, 2010 at 12:07 am

    Max you are right, something is fishy about it. After Patrick McEnroe’s Davis Cup press conference at the US Open, the tennis media was abuzz. The Bryans took the high road on being left out though and they said they did make themselves available. It’s really confusing. We may never know the truth. There’s not enough to even speculate. The tennis media guys I know are totally stumped. I’ve never sensed anything about the core team being unhappy with McEnroe’s leadership, but it could be possible. I respect the job he is doing, and the fact that Jack Sock and Denis Kudla played in the US Open boys final reflects well that progress is being made. If you read Patrick’s book, which is excellent by the way, one thing that’s clear is that it’s very difficult to deal with all the egos on the team and lead it without upsetting someone. Not an easy job, so it’s a wonder Patrick lasted so long (ten years) and actually won the Davis Cup in 2007 in Portland.

  • Andrew Miller · April 17, 2011 at 3:43 am

    Hello Tennis-Prose: Wanted to ask if TP was going to write on some of the ideas from the book “Born to Run” and how some of it may be helpful to tennis. There is a lot of myth when it comes to movement and endurance and some players may be getting tired because they aren’t playing on the balls of their feet according to how we’re supposed to use the feet. I recognize that any discussion of biomechanics is pretty wonky and far out there. But what if TP can solve tennis injuries or at least throw something into the mix? I think it would be cool.

    Thanks for considering! Andrew

  • KING ARTHUR USA · July 6, 2011 at 10:01 pm

    Hi Richard Pagliaro, I have an interview with Peter Fleming,The quote McEnroe and anyone else” is explained I have sent to you but no reply. I also got a great interview with Virginia wade. Let me know if I send them to you.

  • Steve · September 27, 2011 at 6:17 pm

    Scoop did you get to see Jimmy Connors play this week on the Champion’s Tour. I YouTube’d some of it and he’s still using that Prince Mono and looking good at 59.

  • Author comment by Scoop Malinowski · September 27, 2011 at 8:10 pm

    No Steve but gonna take a look for that, saw him hit at US Open last year and he looked as solid and consistent as ever. The game is still there. Who did he play and how did he fare?

  • Steve · September 28, 2011 at 5:53 pm

    He played and lost toCourier but I don’t what the score was. I know Courier ended up losing the Sampras in the final. I’ve owned and sold two Prince Mono’s. Very fun stick to play with.

  • David Trejo · December 4, 2011 at 10:37 pm

    Our dad passed unexpectly 7 years ago at which time we began the Wint Filipek Sr. Memorial Tennis Tournament. It is the biggest in New England and maybe the USA – 631 entries in 2011, 9 day event, 5 HS divisions, 4 round robins for junior boys & girls and a Free Clinic & Fun Day for kids. This is a non-profit event and we have donated $47,400 to tennis playing seniors and the tennis community. I would like to send you some information in the spring and maybe we could partner is some fashion. Could I have your mailing address and email contact please?

    Hi Mark,
    You’ll recall we met at the Delray tournament and talked about the use of TM (Transcendental Meditation) by top tennis players. I can now tell you that Rafa Nadal is using TM daily.

    This past year the Brazilian licensed version of Tennis Magazine ran an article based on their interview with me. You can read the original version I wrote in English: http://cb108.blogspot.com/2011/02/transcendental-tennis.html
    (The portuguese final version is also there in case you read portuguese).

    I will be coming down to Delray again this year for the tourney. Let me know if you want to meet when I am down there (I now live in West Virginia).

    Good to meet up in Newport. Enjoyed talking. You might consider doing an article on Christian Harrison. I think that would be quite interesting. Hope to wee you over the weekend.

  • Author comment by Scoop Malinowski · July 13, 2012 at 2:10 pm

    Hi Richard; I spoke with Pat Harrison, Christian’s father at the practice hard courts on King Street across the street, he was there twice on Tuesday. Pat told me Christian missed two years and for many months he couldn’t do any training at all because his leg was incapacitated. He has made a nice recovery and looked good hitting with Matt Ebden and Carsten Ball, with Todd Martin hovering nearby. Christian also has a very intelligent analytical tennis mind, just like Ryan, Mr. Harrison told me. I will do a feature on Christian at some point for sure. See you,

    I was on the courts in Teaneck this past Saturday with my friend. You thought we were playing in a league. I haven’t played in a while so my game was very rusty…lol My friend plays in a league, I am trying to but hasn’t happened yet. I read your bio about how you used to go to the Pathmark Tennis Classic in Mahwah. I went to that for years with my mom.
    I’m looking forward to exploring more of your site.
    Thanks for giving me your card.

  • Adrian Harding · February 8, 2013 at 8:59 am

    Dear tennisprose,

    I am trying to discover information about my father, Stanley George Perry HARDING, an Englishman who lived in Chile from 1924 until 1930, in Iquique. He played tennis, and I understand he participated in the Chilean National Championship. We have information that he won many tennis matches in Chile, but we do not have any exact information. Does anyone have any record of tennis in Chile at that time? Can you inform me where I must look for this?

    Yours sincerely,
