Your string question

My string keeps breaking at one of the eyelets – what can I do about that?

Sandra's expert tip

Better aim and avoid hitting the frame 😉 – Just kidding...

The stringing is always very sensitive at the grommets, because at the moment of ball contact, the string cannot flex at the edge and may kink at the grommet. In the worst case, and depending on the force of the ball contact (e.g., during a serve), this can even happen with a freshly strung racket. A good stringer checks the grommets for damage before every stringing, because depending on their condition, the grommet can tear and thus lose its protective function. If a grommet is damaged, a Teflon tube can be used, or, if available, the entire grommet tape can be replaced.

If the racket is still very new, you could send it back to the supplier.
