My mom also a tennis player.She has a photo which enlarged and fixed in our drawing room by my dad.\nIn this pic. she trying to turn back a down the line shot which powerly hit by her rival.\nwith kneeling one leg stretching another to total extend, she desperate to take the ball.\nI could feel the determination,pain,fighting sprit in her ailing face.\neven though her inner thigh nerve swelled little bit and her legs exploited too much, I love that pic. and that pic. inspired me a lot to play tennis.

Yes!! I love to play tennis.  I have even started my own team at school becuase we didn't previously have one.  With a little more practice I believe we will be ready to compete and I am seriously considering joining a community team for the coming year.  So while I don't currently compete I hope to in the future.

I only like to watch mens tennis. It's more entertaining to watch. They have more variety in their game. I've also been playing for five years.

Tennis is a GREAT sport! I love playing. I love the fact that you can be at any level and still really have a great time. When I played high school tennis, we had several players who were able to make the team without prior experience. We also had players who had never played before who made the JV and freshman teams. Is that an option for you?\n\nIf you really want to make the team, this is what I suggest: find a place that offers lessons in your area--this could be a local club or a your city's park and rec department--and spend a few months getting the basics down. Also, find someone to hit with regularly. Growing up, my best friend was a guy who I hit with every day after school. We were able to progress as players because we spent so much time on the court. If you're able to find someone to hit with and spend a lot of time on the court before try-outs next spring, then you'll find that you're more than likely in a good position to make the team. \n\nAnyway, I'll give you a link to help you track down places to play, to learn the game, and to find players to hit with. I hope that helps. Good luck!

Well for me I go to the gym to build up my muscles and speed, because this helps me improve my strength and timing on the court. Also if you do cardio exercises you can last longer on the court. The best way to improve your tennis skills is basically exercising and playing against people that are at a higher level than you, because you can learn things from others that you never realize that are useful. \nI have added a link below on tennis video instructions, it teaches you the proper way to serve, forehand, backhand etc...

i love that tennis is a very simple game in terms of the rules. very little room for interpretation at a professional level. compare to rugby, cricket, american football, squash...\n\nTennis is a war against yourself - one of the most psychologically challenging sports i've played.\n\nProbably the greatest thing about tennis - the all-round athletic and other talent needed. you have to be quick, have good reflexes, balance, mentally strong, timing, fitness...\n\nTennis has also been a sort of fashion parade over the years, more than any sport i can think of off hand. People like Borg, Agassi, Rafter, Wiliams sisters, Chris Evert etc were/are sex symbols and fashion icons of sorts in their heyday.\n\nPerhaps an interesting topical issue in tennis that is worth mentioning is the debate surrounding relative prize money of men vs women. they're still not equal in most Grand Slams I think. An interesting barometer of the times.\n\nContrasting styles and rivalries mcenroe vs connors, sampras vs agassi, Evert vs Navratilova, Federer vs Nadal...\n\nEquipment evolution - wooden raquets - aluminium - fibre glass - graphite and who knows what they play with these days. Clothes worn - initally women had to wear long skirts, and these days they practically wear nothing. (So i guess a theme could be how tennis has generally been quite an interesting reflection of the values and "rules" of the times over the years.\n\nProfessional vs amateur eras...

there can be many different reasons why people like soccer so much. i play soccer && i like it because i can kick a soccer ball around almost anywhere && it relaxes me. i also like soccer because it takes time && effort to learn new tecniques, and i am more than willing to take the time to learn. i love getting on the field and fighting with all i have && the feeling of accomplishment is outstanding. My fav. part is pushing && being aggressive!

I love it the most because it is the only sport that has a soul. It can get your emotions and is the only one that really bridge the gaps of nations. Plus either you are a player or spectator, you will really love this game. Another thing that makes this sport very nice is the simplicity of playing the game: not so much rules. \n\nBy the way, enjoy the Champions League Final and the World Cup! I also hoped you enjoyed the FA Cup final. That was fantastic!!!

You love sports because you enjoy the competition and compassion that comes with it.
