[illusionmofo]

he's ambidextrous

This court was build in non-standard shape, like eclipse. I'd like to try.

too bad he sucks

[popcornality]

Is it just me our does he hit it back super fast.

[markpresser]

i dont get why he cant use a one handled racquet?

[pvsrod]

is there any video of this guy playing an actual match, I have only found drills, demostration, now warm ups....I would like to see him playing an actual match to judge if the racket actually makes a difference or not....also does he actually switches hands during the real match?? cuz he doesn't seem to have very good control with the left (i'm talking singles...doubles is a different sport)...

There are the first two sets of the match Battistone vs Wettengel on YouTube, Brian won 4/6 6/3 7/6.

However, Brian is naturally right-handed and started playing with his left hand when he was 27 or so (he is 30 right now).

I am 19 and started playing with the two-handled racket at 18, I can hit with both hands right now even if I am not ambidextrous, obviously it would be better if you start playing with the two-handled racket soon when you are a child, but...better late than never!

Brian is a very talented player. I had the opportunity to watch his qualifying match at the Honolulu challenger today. His serve is def. one of a kind.
