Tennis creates stories, both on and off the court and this is where we collect them. From personal moments to how the game is played and felt.
The Hidden Language of Rituals
From adjusting strings after every point to pulling their shorts out of places they definitely did not start the match in, tennis is full of personal rituals.
The Science of Sweat
A look at hydration, snacks, heat and how to keep your legs moving when the match goes on forever.
The Beautiful Trap
We explore how Freud’s ideas on obsession echo through the rituals, repetitions, and inner battles of tennis. Where passion and fixation intertwine.
Running Quiet: A Conversation with Manuel Perić
We sat down with photographer Manuel Perić. A quiet observer and early collaborator to talk about trail running, tension and seeing what others miss.
The Law of Attraction
Ever noticed how missed tennis balls often meet in the same spot? It’s almost as if they follow an invisible law of attraction. This curious phenomenon might seem like mere coincidence, but there’s more to it than meets the eye.
What’s Rookie Season?
Every journey begins with a single step onto the court, a moment where potential meets opportunity. Rookie Season marks the birth of Temper, a celebration of the spirit of new beginnings and the thrill of stepping into the unknown.
What about the Temperaments?
The idea behind Temper is rooted in a theory that’s been around for centuries: the four temperaments. Dating back to ancient Greek medicine, this theory suggests that everyone carries a mix of four basic personality types.
Why Temper Exists
To honor the true nature of tennis by embracing the game’s spirit and building a community where every athlete belongs.
