2012 Babolat Pure Drive Giveaway
The winnings! A 2012 Babolat Pure Drive Roddick with L-Tec strings!

Oh my, it’s that time of year again! The 2012 US Open is right around the corner, I can hardly contain myself. It feels like the 2012 Wimbledon Championships just ended; well, they did just end a couple of weeks ago. If you remember, I did a Babolat Propulse 3 Stars & Stripes shoe giveaway; the winner was selected and has already received his winnings (picture in link).

Since that tennis giveaway was so successful, I thought I would continue the Babolat trend and put a Babolat Pure Drive Roddick as the 2012 US Open giveaway prize! Heck ya! A Babolat Pure Drive Roddick giveaway tennis racquet, how about that? Check out the details of the Babolat Pure Drive Roddick tennis racquet.

But wait…that’s not all! To sweeten the giveaway, I will personally install L-Tec tennis strings using the JET method (I am an authorized L-Tec/JET stringer, learn more about the JET method). Oh yeah, and you also get a cool Tennisthis.com sticker, ya know, to put on your car, laptop, window, or wherever. When the winner of the Babolat Pure Drive Roddick giveaway is selected, I will be in touch about the JET method and select the best L-Tec strings for your game.

Babolat Pure Drive Roddick Giveaway Details

The Babolat Pure Drive Roddick giveaway will run from 7/17/2012 through 9/9/2012 (or the 10th, depending on the when the men’s final is played). Anybody can enter this giveaway, only one winner will be selected. If an international winner is selected, he or she will be responsible for all shipping costs, there is no negotiation on that. When the winner is selected, I will send that person an email (please use a valid email address); that person will have 24 hours to respond, if no response is received, another winner will be selected. Winner must also agree to take a photograph of themselves (face or not) with their winnings.

    Arthur Ashe upsets Jimmy Connors in ’75. Old guys could play then and they can play now – sometimes the game in your head and not your legs

    When I was watching Novak’s tennis matches, I was impressed by his serves and gameplay. This motivated me to do better and strive higher.

    The 2012 Djokovic v. Murray Australian open Semifinal. That was an inspirational match. Very intense and close, between my two favorite players.

    I’ll go with 2010 Federer/Novak semifinal. They were both amazing.

  8. Sock 'em Jack says

    September 6, 2012 at 8:22 pm

    When Jack Sock and Melanie Oudin won the Mixed doubles event in 2011. A good way to make a name on the tennis tour as an up and coming star even though he is ranked, I feel, 100-130 places too low.

    When Nadal played Novak. I was actually thinking about quitting tennis,but seeing their determination made me want to work harder and play again

    I definitely believe it is the Jimmy Connors versus Aaron Krickstein in five (5) hour marathon in 1991. It went through two (2) days. Also it was Jimmy Connors
    thirty-ninth (39th) birthday where the crowd sang “Happy Birthday” to Jimmy. Also the famous quote that Jimmy said: “This is what they want”, This match definitely showed the warrior he really was.

  21. Niel in SF says

    August 20, 2012 at 5:41 pm

    2011, when Djokovic beat Nadal in 4 sets. I still remember the exasperated look on Rafa’s face when nothing he did was shifting the momentum to his favor despite Novak’s seemingly exhausted state through the latter half of the match.

  22. Shawn says

    August 20, 2012 at 3:57 pm

    It was Agassi and Sampras and I was about 3 at the time my dad had changed the channel and I was amazed and my dad explained to me when I was older what had exactly happened and that’s why he had me start playing tennis and now I have been committed to it. His serve and volley style was exciting to me and the standing ovation they good was well deserved. They both played very well!

  23. Rob says

    August 20, 2012 at 1:12 pm

    For whatever reason in 1982, I had been “grounded” It must have been something really bad, because Dad wouldn’t even let me leave the house to play tennis. In the days of no cable TV, I was forced to watch the Jerry Lewis Telethon (torture at that age) or The Open. I watched McEnroe, my personal favorite at the time, get upset by Van Patten. The tournament went on to feature Connors winning his 2nd to last Grand Slam over Ivan Lendl, he won 5 in his career. I think I saw the light of day a week or so later after my grounding was lifted.

    August 20, 2012 at 11:23 am

    It was an epic match between Roddick and Isner in the 4th round in 2009.I can’t forget that tragedy, and even today i’m sad because after that Wimbledon final against Federer i was really hoping for him to win the US Open.

  25. Gerald Painter says

    August 20, 2012 at 10:23 am

    Ok this is taking it back, but do you remember an 18 year old Agassi beating Conners, then 36, at the 1988 Open Quarter finals?

  26. Ric Walke says

    August 20, 2012 at 10:21 am

    Melanie Oudin making her run in the 2009 Open making it to the quarters. She had my whole family watching every night. She had my 9 year old twin daughters asking when does Melanie play again? It really peaked their interest in the game.

  27. Dealatron General says

    August 19, 2012 at 8:52 pm

    Aggasi’s last win at the open I’ll never forget!

  28. Darlinpa says

    Many hours and puking from the players lol.

    Agassi-Blake in Quarterfinals of Us Open 2005. Blake was so near of victory, but the victory escaped from his hands. Fifth set tiebreak was amazing, with the spectators fully into it.

    August 15, 2012 at 12:17 pm

    Fed coming so close in last year’s semi’s.   That was some great end of match drama.

  31. Lucas Nguyen says

    August 15, 2012 at 3:48 am

    My tennis memory is when I saw Jack Sock and Melanie Oudin fight their way through in Mixed Doubles last year. It was such a huge surprise, who would have thought the young guns would win a grand slam? Amazing.

  32. Ignacio Gallardo says

    I had the pleasure of watching Agassi’s final win at the US Open. It was a late evening match against Baghdatis that went well past midnight. Andre pulled out an epic 5 setter while Marcos feel to the court with severe cramps in his legs. That night, I proposed to my (now) wife! 

  33. Greg Duncan says

    August 13, 2012 at 5:02 pm

    By far the most memorable match at the US Open for me was in 2005 in a quarter final match between Andre Agassi and James Blake.  This match was an absolute boxing match.  Agassi fell in the first two sets to the younger Blake losing set one and two 3-6 & 3-6.  Being late in Agassi’s career the 5 set comeback was looking unlikely yet somehow my favorite player at the time found the strength to dig deep and win the third set 6 -3, win the fourth set 6-3 and force the 5th under the lights at night in front of a wildest NYC audience I have ever seen.   The J-Block was in full effect backing thier guy but ole man Andre wasn’t going down without a fight.  Well past 1am the match was destined to conclude in dramatic fashion.  After some of the most amazing rally’s I had ever seen in a match Agassi found a way to pull ahead when it mattered most to win the 5th 7-6(8-6).  I had never seen a more grueling match up to that point where both men fought out of their minds trying to win.  The audience showed great respect to both men and it was a match that left a long lasting impression on me to this day.  That’s my most cherished US Open memory.  : )

    Epic!

  38. The maestro says

    July 20, 2012 at 5:25 pm

    It has to be about federer at the open. The magic and the genius shot making that he brings over and over again. I am still feel awe that he did tweeners at the open.

  39. Chris Walsh says

    July 18, 2012 at 8:35 pm

    2010 Novak Vs Roger Semifinal.OMG what incredible rallies.. over the top tennis… ridiculous how good these 2 are.

    2008 US Open final against Andy Murray in straight sets.

  43. Justinc1984 says

    July 17, 2012 at 8:36 pm

    2003 us open semi final between roddick and nalbandian . I was playing my freshmen year in college first match of the season in a team tournament. We traveled to Montreal. The match was on, I had to go play. Roddick was losing. I came back he won the third set tie break saved match points, and dug deep to win. From that moment I was inspired, and battled hard in my next match for a three set win. Roddick has been my favorite player, and has taught me to fight like a champion and never give up. 

  44. cluckcluck says

    July 17, 2012 at 7:34 pm

    I have to say that my fondest memory was 2007, Roger Federer’s “Darth Federer” outfit for his night sessions. It was especially exciting at night with all the energy the crowd put out. It was electric. That was a lot of fun to watch Fed and Nole duke it out in the final.
    Looking forward to winning this giveaway! Hahaha!

    July 17, 2012 at 6:55 pm

    Andy Roddick’s victory over Juan Carlos Ferrero in 2003. It’s the first US Open final I really remember and it’s because Andy won it. I’m a big fan of Roger but Andy has also been a favorite and was so happy he won that day. I was just enamored by his serves back in the day; I mean his second serves were just as quick and deadly as his first. I wish I had a serve like that…
