    well, the problem is in midwest tournament they always become the official stringer so we don't have anymore choice. My friends even asked for 25 Lbs but the string is keep running. When I asked them do they know how to string they said that this is the way. So I give no more comment.

    other than the knot being tied at an unusual location, i don't see anything wrong with it.

    1) I am very sorry to see that happen.
    2) The only issue is that the grommet suppose to take 2 strings but it has 3 strings at the tie off.
    3) 1 extra cross at the throat. stiffer string bed and less feeling.
    4) The location of tie off will give it additional minor stress. Should not hurt the frame in the long run.

    What exactly happened?

    I know this is an old posting. However, will someone be able to tell me what exactly happened here? Was there any damage to the racquet? Thanks!
