Hey everyone,
This is my first post on talk tennis. I am a U18 canadian tennis player. I've been to nationals and tennis definately is a big part of my life. I'm torn (no pun intended) between getting and not getting surgery for my labrum. I've had an MRI arthogram and my labrum is definately torn. The orthopedia surgeon I saw, said that even though my labrum is torn, it could be an inflamed bursa that is causing pain. And getting the labrum fixed could make my arm tighter, and subsequently, my tennis worse.
My plan after high school is to go to the states and play college tennis. Most likely division 3, because I want the emphasis to be even between school and tennis rather than div 1, which is more tennis than school.
I'd appreciate any input and/or suggestions!
Thanks
