25.01.2022 Last 5 pairs! R.R.P. $200, now only $50! 1x7, 1x8,... 3 x 11. These are top of the range Mizuno Ladies Tennis shoes! See more

25.01.2022 Here’s something very special! I bought this 2012 Babolat Aero Pro Drive Roland Garros racquet new in 2012, sold it in 2017 and now I have it back! You can have it for $100. Be very quick, you may never see another one of these!

24.01.2022 The new Babolat Pure Drive has come in early! Now available for sale or demo. Has the tennis season come around quick, I have never been so busy! My advice to all you tennis players out there, NEVER PAY MORE THAN $300 FOR A RACQUET! THAT MEANS ANY RACQUET!

24.01.2022 Hmmm! Joe Burns, Todd Marshall, Which was the worst selection? !

24.01.2022 I have some 2nd hand balls for sale! Be very quick, they go off within minutes

24.01.2022 I know it’s a public holiday but I am at work from 9-5.30 today! Why? I’m bored at home when Karaoke is the most exciting activity to do!

22.01.2022 I’ve been watching Benita Bencic play tennis now for years! I first saw her play as a teenager in the Hopman Cup with Roger Federer. Great athlete, fantastic competitor, but her game is seriously flawed. The first objective of tennis is to hit the ball in the court, and this is where her game breaks down! Every strategy and game plan revolves around this fundamental. She is a see ball, hit ball type of player, which means hit or miss! Combine that with a dodgy second serve and a brittle temperament and you have a player who cannot reach her full potential! Come on Benita, value every point more, because you need points to win games, and games to win sets! Simple isn’t it!

21.01.2022 Talk about good timing! Naomi Osaka wins the U.S. Open singles a couple of days before her new racquet is released! I have 10 only of these racquets over 3 different models. Once the Men’s final is finished I will do a red-hot special on both racquets! I should be able to announce these tomorrow, Tuesday at the latest! Get excited!

20.01.2022 There was a Missing Persons scare at the cricket over the weekend! The mystery was solved late last night! It appears they all merely crawled up Brian Lara’s clacker during the telecast! Too funny!

20.01.2022 In store now, for demo or purchase! The new Head Speed Pro and MP. Remember I don’t have a racquet $300 or more! Promise

20.01.2022 The new range of Babolat shoes now in stock ( at last ) very flash, Men’s and Juniors!

19.01.2022 Introducing the Slinger bag, a hybrid between a ball machine and a tennis bag! These are seriously innovative! Check out the review on Tennis Only They are very impressive and affordable. In store now! Call in and check them out!

19.01.2022 Let me preface this by declaring that I have been a Port Adelaide football club supporter for the best part of 60 years! So guess what happened, 4 Port players went to the swimming trials at Marion and didn’t wear masks! After what happened at the Crows 3 weeks ago, wouldn’t you think they would be better than that! No! A good friend of mine has always said, don’t put the words footballer and intelligent in the same sentence ! How dumb are you people! Time to make a stan...d, unlike the Crows who paid the $50,000 on their behalf, make the 4 players cough up with it! A lot of volunteers give up their time to sign up members, and you just throw their good work away! How stupid are you clowns, you give me the s, you entitled flogs! Do the right thing, pay up and apologise to the volunteers and the rest of the club! And grow a ! See more

18.01.2022 PATIENCE REQUIRED! Because of the world-wide pandemic, there will be delays in supply of stock by all companies! In Adelaide, interstate and overseas factories have slowed down production or even closed. It will take a while to clear this backlog, so be prepared to wait a bit longer!

18.01.2022 Babolat was founded in 1875. In 2010 they released this racquet to commemorate their 135th Anniversary. I have one and I am happy for it to go to a good home, someone who will appreciate it! It is brand new with face-card attached. It has a special cover and is a highly sought-after collectable. Best offer over $1000! No tyre-kickers!

18.01.2022 The new Babolat Pure Drive will be here mid-October ( 2021 model ) This has been in Babolat’s range for 26 years, one of the biggest selling racquets of all time! You can pre-order this racquet now if you want!

18.01.2022 The new Head Instinct MP and S available in store now for demo or purchase! MP R.R.P. $300 S R.R.P. $280, You certainly don’t need to pay these prices, if you do you are a GUMBY Come and see me at Tucker Tennis!

17.01.2022 Some shopping advice for Xmas, 1 Remember there is not a racquet on the market that should cost you more than $300! If they can’t or won’t sell it to you for a fair price, walk out , just tell them you refuse to pay overs! 2 Don’t leave it too late to do your shopping this year, stock can be hard to get or at a minimum slow to get, so if you want your family to be this content in 26 days, come and see me at Tucker Tennis!

17.01.2022 If you are politically correct don’t read on! Breaking news from Police Headquarters! It is expected the crime rate in Adelaide will drop significantly the next 2 nights, all the Greeks will be watching the French OpenTennis on TV

16.01.2022 Last one! The Head Speed Pro, Novak’s racquet! $199 and I’ll throw in the demo free! Be quick, first to ring after 9 will get them!

16.01.2022 To celebrate Not White Saturday at Tucker Tennis I am giving you the opportunity to buy a can of the new Head Tour XT tennis balls ( 4 ) for $13 and get a second can free.* * Saturday 9-12 only, and only applicable to stock in shop!

14.01.2022 Breaking news from Channel 9! For the tennis coverage moving forwards! Casey Dellacqua has been banned from commentating on further Barty matches due to a conflict of interest, she is in love with Ash and says her name 50,000 times per match, which pisses everyone off, Todd Woodbridge however will remain on air because he doesn’t love any of the current players, only himself!

14.01.2022 I have 6 dozen secondhand tennis balls for sale, in excellent condition. You will need to ring me very quickly if you want them!

12.01.2022 Each year I feel the need to remind people that Margaret Court won 64 Grand Slam Titles and Serena Williams has won 39. She is 1 behind in Singles titles. Personally I can’t stand her, she should not be mentioned in the same breath as our Margaret, one is a lady and the other is a bully! P.S. By the way, one is very religious and the other is black, my opinions of these women have nothing to do with these factors!

12.01.2022 Here we go again! There are 6 more minor round matches to go, with a week off on 6th of March for the Adelaide Cup, followed by 2 weeks of finals! Remember there is not a racquet on the market that should cost $300 or more! There are a lot of new racquets just released by Babolat, Head and Yonex, all under $300 at Tucker Tennis! Don’t get sucked in or ripped off, walk out and come here! I’m all ears!

10.01.2022 So Osaka and Thiem are the new U.S. Open champions! Osaka’s racquet of choice, the Yonex E-Zone Ltd 98, which has a R.R.P. of $370, is offered for this week @ only $280, strung with a gold string by me, and includes 1 dozen Head Tour balls! Thiem’s racquet of choice is the Babolat Pure Strike, which has a R.R.P. of $350, is offered for this week @ only $299, strung with a gold string by me, and includes 1 dozen Head Tour balls! Be quick, until Saturday @ 12p.m.

10.01.2022 Here’s a bargain! I have 1 Head Gravity MP left, my competitors are selling this racquet for $370! What about $250 and my demo goes with it free! Grip size 4 1/2 demo 4 3/8, and like new!

09.01.2022 Do you understand what a Demo program is? It is where you show an interest in buying a tennis racquet but would like to try it first. I feel privileged that you have chosen my shop to demo a racquet! Rules of Demoing, 1 Return them!... 2 Return them at the agreed time! Simple isn’t it? Occasionally a string breaks, even a frame! The most common questions I get are, is there a cost involved? No, I cover the cost of grips and strings on my demos? Is there a deposit required to borrow my racquets? No! Any business who asks for a deposit is trying to obligate you to buy that racquet, and you can kiss that goodbye if you don’t! See more

08.01.2022 Big news from Yonex! The new Naomi Osaka range of racquets are coming mid-September! I have 10 only of these gold racquets available! There are 3 models, 98/305, 100/300, and 100/285. * head size/weight.... Pre- order now to avoid disappointment! From Yonex, the gold E-zone range! See more

08.01.2022 Babolat caps are now back in stock! Black, white, pink and blue! $20 each, or 2 for $35, or 3 for $45!

08.01.2022 We are going to be closed at this stage until next Wednesday . I don’t consider myself to be a panic buyer, I only bought the absolute essentials!

08.01.2022 My first post went off at 30 seconds after 9! So what about my Head Speed MP demo, only $75, be quick!

07.01.2022 At last tennis balls are coming back into stock! Head Tour XT balls are here now for Southern Districts clubs, And for GDTA clubs at the new price of only $125.50 per box, the Slazenger Advantage Hardcourt ball, this is a newly negotiated price, and quite ridiculous, but my aim is to save money for all my clubs in GDTA.

07.01.2022 2 things are starting to piss me off with the Big Bash, one is Ricky Ponting dribbling on incessantly about what he would have done, he’s a bit like Todd Woodbridge but with credibility. Secondly the Fujitsu ad with Tubby Taylor. How wooden is Lisa the female commentator! Too funnyand As for the rest of the other commentators, Brian Lara’s clacker is chockablock, suck up to someone else Happy New Year

07.01.2022 I have 17 cans of good used balls, these will go off in 5 minutes, so be very quick if interested!

05.01.2022 It’s 3 years today since I moved into my new shop, with great neighbours in the adjoining shops, and a fantastic landlady! The best news is that I have extended my lease for 2 more years! So, unless I peg it, I promise I will continue to discount my tennis racquets as much as possible , and if my competitors think I’m going to change or mellow, remember I was trained by Don Shipway from the mighty Sports Locker! No chance!

05.01.2022 Everyone wants a bargain! I have 2 demos for sale! Babolat Pure Drive 110 Head Radical MP Lite These are $300 racquets, I’ll take $75 each or $120 for both! Both are in excellent condition! No holds, buy or don’t buy!

02.01.2022 Things have changed already! I will now be opening at 9 a.m. Monday morning! Let’s hope that is the last problem we have!

01.01.2022 Found another one! My Babolat Pure Drive Team demo! Excellent condition, only $75, retail $329. First to ring after 9!
