Info 10th Tournament of the Swiss Grand Prix Circuit – Coupe Avia


Report The success of Barry Phillips Moore, already 40 years old on the Swiss Grand Prix Circuit was partly achieved by his mastery of the double string racket which was outlawed by the ITF in autumn 1977 after Nastase had ended the winning spree of Vilas in the final of the Aix-en-Provence Grand Prix with the help of this tool.
