The “Pick up” Match

Posted by Mo | Tennis | Wednesday 3 March 2004 10:46 pm

I had a tennis pick up match tonight against some dude in midland. Well I haven’t played tennis in like 2 months; so the first set I was hanging in there till we got to 4-4 after that he broke me on my serve and then finished the set at 4-6. PS: My serve was off the first set.

Second set I started mixing up my serves, and I smoked him 6-3. It did feel good in that set; however my serve is not where I wanted it to be yet.

So off to the third set, he started 2-0 and then I came back to 5-5; BTW I tried applying Agassi’s strategy in the third set which is make your opponent run at least 30% more than you do. So I ran his ass down. I started playing drop shots and pretty much controlling the game since I figured he was tired .When we got to 5-5 he was like “I gtg cause I told my wife I’ll be back at 9:30″. lmao! I was like ok whatever good game. If you ask me I wanted to finish the game so bad. Yet it was a decent pick up match. I wouldn’t say great but respectable.
