Hi Dudley, Thank you very much. I am also looking forward to being there and meeting you and making more friends. Mardy Fish is going great guns, do you think Federer and Nadal are now fading stars?
Hey Dudley,with that teaching cart I just make sure to check the wheels and keep them fully tightened. They tend to work themselves loose and then mess up the threads and strip out.
Thanks for the serve tips, I'll definitely be working on them next time I'm out hitting. I should get some friends to take some nice photos of me at the courts so I have a good profile picture Lol.
Thank you!! I had a lot of fun and everyone was really nice and welcoming (I just wished I warmed up more before we started - then we would have beaten them for sure!!). Definitely game for next time... I am actually in town all next week and have a very flexible schedule - would love to play as much as I can every day/almost any time!!
yeah, i remember when tennis was PRIME time Television. I was glued to the tv watching those players...... the american players, the swedes, spanish, french players, Ivan Lendl; all of which had SUCH different styles...You never really knew who would win the big tournaments. Ivan Lendl was actually a very generous person. When I was in high school he was #1 in the world and he came to my little hometown (corpus christi, tx) and played an exhibition against Steve Denton to raise money for a man who needed a heart transplant (Terry Kalenda). They raised the money for the transplant and he is still alive to this day! I sat very close to the action and the speed of the game was actually faster than i thought it would be. People today say the players of the 80's hit the ball casually but i saw it with my own eyes and they dont know what they are talking about.... Nice to meet you to
Hi Dudley. Dragan and I have been playing in Walnut Creek a lot with our friends. The thing about Thursdays is that I work till 6, even 6:30 sometimes. By the time I get home and get ready and drive to San Ramon, it gets late. But we hope to make it one of these days. I would love to play with you guys again. Take care.
Rain, the bane of every tennis instructor's existence with the exception of those fortunate enough to teach indoors. I haven't been affected as much as far as being an instructor since my last job teaching tennis ended in Sept 2010 but of course playing time has been limited since I don't belong to any Club Sport. Let me know when the weather improves and you are able to take time out of your busy schedule...
