    How about the biggest upset by someone almost two hundred ranking points below his competition:

    2013 Austalian Open -- Tian Houwei vs Lee Chong Wei (world rank 196 vs 1).

    Most hyped new equipment? say the adidas line?

    Most interesting equipment destruction? there was some guy who had his racket snap during a tourney game right?

    the shocking drama of Paul Stewart escaping the clutches of the evil YY empire to join the ranks of the Victor forces

    Good that you brought this up... now this would definitely win the vote for most over rated, most hyped up, most disappointing new racket released in 2013.

    Hahaha yes.. It's disappointing on how people buy this racquet thinking they will smash faster... I just had an argument with a friend about this.
