On April 26th Eduardo started a blog about Pancho Gonzales. In the late 60's Oscar was teaching tennis at The Beverly Tennis Club where "Little Pancho" Segura was Head Tennis Pro, "Big Pancho" Gonzales was a frequent visitor and practiced with Oscar. "Out of about 90 sets, I won only one, and Pancho never let me get close again after that" says Oscar. "He had an incredible serve, better placed than today's top players, and great coverage at the net. Even his slice approach was spectacular. Only his forehand was suspect. I used to serve mostly to his forehand, which would make him mad."
