Win A FREE Tennis Racquet Tennis String And MORE!

June 11, 2011 By G.O.A.T

The winnings!

I bet you do! As you have probably already seen (you can check out our past winner here), I like to give away free stuff during the Major tennis tournaments – Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon, and the US Open. Now that Wimbledon is creeping up on us, it’s that time again!

I’ve also decided to sweeten this contest with a FREE TENNIS RACQUET*! I’m not going to break the bank with a $200 stick, so I’ve decided to give away a tennis racket from last year, here are your FOUR racquet options:

  1. Babolat Pure Storm GT Racquet
  2. Yonex RDiS 100 Midplus
  3. Wilson KSix-One 95 (16×18)
  4. Prince EXO3 Ignite 95

Here’s your opportunity to win a free String Thing, a free set of Babolat Pro Hurricane 16 tennis string,  A FREE TENNIS RACQUET, and a Tennisthis.com sticker! Again, the String Thing has been autographed by Mark Philippoussis, which is super sweet in it’s own right.

Instead of having you enter by leaving a comment below, I’m going to put a little spin on things and have you answer some tennis trivia, deal?

Here are the trivia questions:

  1. What type of grass is grown on the tennis courts at Wimbledon?
  2. Who was in the longest women’s tennis match at Wimbledon and how long was it?
  3. Who was the first male tennis player to win the Wimbledon men’s singles title as a wildcard player?

That’s is, answer those three questions in the comment section below, which free tennis racquet (from the choices above), and the grip size. Only those with correct answers will be entered in the drawing. This contest ends after the men’s championship finals on July 3rd, 2011. And please subscribe to my newsletter to keep up to date with other tennis contests and giveaways!

[gsom-optin]

Good luck to you all and stay tuned for Wimbledon updates! You can use those fancy little share buttons below to Tweet, post it to Facebook, or whatever it is that you do to spread the word!

*Tennis racquet will be unstrung and with no cover or bag.

    Great contest, really hope I win! I’m torn on which racquet to choose. I’ve gotten to play with my friend’s Yonex Rdis 100mp for a bit and liked it, but the Wilson K6.1 95 16×18 also has nice specs. Hmm… either of those in 4 3/8 🙂

    1. Wimbledon grows 100% perennial rye grass.

    2. Chanda Rubin and Patricia Hy-Boulais match lasted the longest at 3 hours and 45 minutes.

    3. Goran Ivanišević FTUW (uber). I wonder how many wildcards have gotten to a GS final.

    The longest women’s match is when Chanda Rubin played Patricia Hy-Boulais in
    1995 for 3 hours and 45 minutes.

    wildcard player was Goran Ivanisevic.

    1) Wimbledon courts use 100% rye grass since September 2000.

    2) The longest women’s singles match at Wimbledon involved Chanda Rubin defeating Patricia Hy-Boulais in 3 hours 45 minutes.

    3) In 2001 Goran Ivanisevic defeated Patrick Rafter, becoming the first wildcard to win Wimbledon.

    Babolat Pure Storm GT, 1/4.

    BTW, I noticed that all four racquets have open patterns.

    • G.O.A.T says

      June 20, 2011 at 1:47 pm

      That’s because the string thing is open patterned 😉 besides who doesn’t like to hit heavy spin?
