Pura is solid. He is 15 or maybe just turned 16.

Indeed it was. And predictably, he did lose to Shuhei. Still a good run!

Once again Mayo Hibi dominates the girls 18's at only 14yrs of age!!

Congratulations to Mayo Hibi! And great job to Shuhei Shibahara. He has had made great progress from 16s to 18s in a short time.

His dad Tom made the documentary 50000 Balls, very cool thing. Sadly, his father passed away in 2008.

Yes. I saw him win the Gator Bowl a few years back. His Dad was there to see him win it and it was great to see the Father-Son relationship. Great tennis dad that raised a great kid, very well grounded.
