Got the Silver

I signed up for another tournament for the B+ division but yet again they bumped me to the A. Anyways the first match I played was against a dude that ranks about 4.5 ; which is pretty darn good. The match lasted 2:45 min, people were like man that was a marathon. I lost but [...]

Jump Rope

After reading in a tennis magazine how important jump rope is for tennis players. I have decided to get one and start jump roping everyday. It’s good for your cardio and your calves. It keeps your legs in shape and ready for immediate explosion on the tennis courts. It also helps out your speed and [...]

Win or lose

I got bumped up in the division from the B+ to A. My friend organized the tournament, and he was like we have an odd number so do you mind switching divisions. Oh it wasn’t a good idea since now I know I wasn’t ready for the A division quite yet. Losses don’t taste good, [...]

Just when I was on a roll to end the tennis losing streak I broke my strings…
I was up 2 games to nothing and my game was picking up, all of a sudden after I hit a strong forehand the strings pop. I guess I ‘ll have to wait till I get my new strings [...]

Losing Streak

I’ve been going on a losing streak playing tennis lately. I usually don’t go through this a lot; since I try to adjust my game and figure out my weaknesses. However; this passed 2 weeks or 3 I’ve been playing with Ryan, a 4.0-4.5 level player. In otherwords, he is better than me since I [...]

Finally Tennis Outdoors

The tennis season is so close! I played tennis this weekend outdoors. The temperature was about 55 degrees which is considered a little bit chilly. However it was a sunny day which kind of balanced the temp. It feels good to play tennis outdoors; I lost the first set 6-2 and won the second 6-4. [...]
