Rafael Nadal beats Potito Starace 6-4 6-2 in Barcelona Open!

Congratulations to Rafael Nadal! He has beaten Italy's Potito Starace 6- 4 6- 2 in 78 minutes. Nadal will now play against Spanish Feliciano Lopez, one of his closest friends on tour.

Having beaten World No. 1 Roger Federer to win the title in Monte Carlo, Nadal faces a difficult task if he is to defend his Barcelona crown and then go on to win the back-to-back Masters events in Rome and Hamburg.

Changes to the calendar this year to accommodate the Olympic Games mean that Nadal will play four weeks in a row and then have just a week off before the French Open.

Wilson [K]Factor [K]Six-One Tour 90 Racquet- Federer's current racquet!

The [K]Factor [K]Six- One Tour 90 Racquet is the racket that World No. 1 Roger Federer is using. This is probably the best Wilson racquet ever made, as it is one of the latest Wilson [K]Factor racquets. This racquet offers excellent stability, power and control. You can hit volleys controllably and from the service line you are able to hit good shots controllably. When you serve with this racquet, you can hit the ball with good spin. If you are returning a serve, you can hit the ball with stability and consistency. Your forehand and backhand shots are controlled well.

The racquet head size is 90 square inches and it is 27 inches long, which is 69 centimeters. The racquet weighs 354 grams. It is intergrated with [K]arophite Black to take [K]ontrol to the next level.

Wilson nCode Rackets

Wilson nCode is a tennis racket series developed by Wilson. A nanotechnology process links billions of carbon fibers together before heatshaping, thus eliminating microscopic voids that create stress points in other carbon fiber rackets.

When a racquet is nCoded nano-sized silicone oxide crystals permeate the voids between the carbon fibers. This adjustment made at the molecular level significantly strengthens and enhances the stability of the overall carbon matrix. nCode racquets are clamied by Wilson up to 22% more powerful and stable than ordinary racquets.

There are many types of nCode rackets. They are the nSix-One Tour, nSix-One 95, nSix-One Team, nTour, nTour Two, nPro, nSix-Two, nSurge, nBlade, nFury, nFury II, nVision, nRage, nFusion n1, n2, n3, n4, n5, n6, and n26.

I am currently using the Wilson nCode nBlade. It is a good racket and I like it.
