Started playing tennis w parents in middle school but focused on pitching and playing basketball thru HS(98).

My bro- in-law played #1 singles in HS so he would play w me whenever we could. My record against him was 2-??? Since 2000. But I kept coming back because it was a good workout but even MORE fun to smash a ball and have someone smash it back.

My pitching motion translated into a bomb of a serve and that was ALL. I could serve myself into a couple games but never a set. Over the years have been able to develop a strong baseline game making matches A LOT closer.

Just this summer (‘23) switched racquet's from an early Pure Drive Tour to RFv13. Didn't realize how much those little letters and numbers on the side of racquet really mattered. But now a racquet-a-holic and need therapy.

…And, yes balanced out my loosing streaks w winning ones. 2 at most
