Craig and Vince have been friends for 30 years and counting. A Washington, DC native, Craig grew up playing tennis in the Mid-Atlantic section and was a Top 10 junior player. Craig founded Champion Stringing in Rockville and, at the time, it was the premier place to get racquets strung, customized, and expert tennis product knowledge in Maryland. Vince got his racquets strung at Champion, along with most of his junior peers, and the friendship between the Pulupa family and Craig began right there in the early 1990's.
Since then, Craig has been the official stringer for the US Open, Masters Cup, Sony Ericsson in Miami, NCAAs, Orange Bowl, Eddie Herr Championship, Super National Clay Courts, and so many ITFs, ITAs and USTA National events.
Craig founded Brotman Racquet Design and he's currently working with 10 NCAA college teams customizing the players' racquets and equipment. OSSA is happy to have Craig aboard as our Official Racquet Technician.
