The Players... Apollo

His favorite player is the current world's number 1, Roger Federer. But his style of player resembles more of the legendary Pete Sampras whom he emulates his playing style from.
He is right hander and plays with a single handed backhand. His major weapon is his big serve and flowing all court style. At the net, especially when playing doubles, his flick risk, half and angled volleys are a daily combination and he balances this well coming in with a huge first serve during singles competition.

His racquet of choice the hugely popular Wilson N-Code N61 95, strung at 60 pounds. Being more of a traditional huge serve and volley player, his previous and current racquets were all conventional mid sized framed ones. Previous to this, he was using the Wilson Pro Staff Tour 95.
