If I Had to Do It All Over Again ...

I'd still pick the U.S. for the upset over Spain!



I mean, ya gotta believe, right? Isn't that how the saying goes? I believe in the points I made about the keys to the team winning, but I guess execution is always key!

Sinking the Spanish Armada

Here's probably one of the craziest statements you'll read tennis-wise for a while:



The U.S. team can, and will, pull off the upset this weekend in Davis Cup! (You can exercise your right to vote here if you agree or disagree.)



I know, I know: A rookie's on the squad and one-half of one of the greatest doubles ever is out. The other team is led by a 22-year-old, who's already a legend. Plus, the hosts are playing on their… Continue

Increasing stamina

I often use most of my energy during the first set and feel that I don't have enough energy to get me through the second or sometimes third set. There have been times where I have one the first set and should have one the second set, but lose the match because I get too tired and make too many errors. What can I do to increase my stamina? What in between match training do you recommend? Other advice??
