What I love about Tennis?
Tennis is just like a physical chess match. There is a thrilling blend of strategy, geometry and psychology. You are constantly problem solving. You become the sole architect of your victory or analyst of your defeat. This aesthetically pleasing sport not only gives you a full-body life long workout but also opens pathways to connect with others.

What you love about Tennis?
My favorite thing about tennis in general is literally just the act of using a racket to manipulate a ball on the scale that tennis provides. Huge power and spin, on a big court that requires a lot of movement. It’s such an interesting and enjoyable thing to watch and do. Every player has their own quirks and things that they’re good at, with individualized techniques. The game can really be a good reflection of one’s personality.
