Sabine Receives Guinness World Records Certificate

YONEX tennis star Sabine Lisicki (VCORE Tour 97, POLYTOUR SPIN)  has achieved a GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ title for her tennis serve, which reached 131 mph/210.8 kmh earning her the accolade of the fastest recorded serve in the history of women’s tennis. On Friday, August 22nd, Sabine got the Guinness World Records certificate in New York, right before the US Open.



On Tuesday, July 29, 2014, during a first round match at the Bank of the West Classic in Stanford, CA, against opponent Ana Ivanovic (EZONE Ai 98), Lisicki hit a serve that registered 131 mph, the fastest recorded serve speed in history, as confirmed by the Women's Tennis Association (WTA) and SMT/IDS (SportsMEDIA Technology Information Display Systems).

Former Wimbledon finalist and winner of three WTA events, 24-year-old Lisicki has been playing with VCORE Tour 97 and POLYTOUR SPIN strings since 2012.

“It’s an honour for me to achieve a Guinness World Records title for the fastest serve. I have worked very hard on my serve from a young age on and it’s great to be recognized for it.  My serve is a weapon I like to use and I will continue to work on making it better and YONEX continues to help me improve my game to new levels,” said Lisicki.
