Wooden rackets rock! Small sweet spot. If you're good.. you win. If you miss the sweet spot, you're done for.:p

Bjorn Borg for you guys tto 'old' to remember, use to have his poster behind my door...and tried to imitate his double-handed back hand...the only back hand I do these days, is to swipe at those pesky houeflies

The racket is quite strange looking. The grip is very long. That's because this guy uses 2-handed backhand.

Can't remember if he came first or ABBA.

The legend to me is the wooden racquet with that small head! Resistance was strong to the lightweight big heads.in the early days(same for badminton racquets). Prince was the pioneer, if I'm not wrong. Wonder who still swears by it?

I still have a old Dunlop wooden racket in my storeroom. Unfortunately did not keep it in its clamp and it went out of shape.

Brings back sweet memories of a friend of mine who was so into BB that he had the whole kit -Fila outfit, Diadora shoes, and the Donay racquet. Even his shirt had Borg's endorements I use to love to go down to Uncle Choo's sports shop to admire all the sports gear, could not afford it at the time though:(

The last time in the news was that he was in some financial problem
