It's been over 8 years since I picked up a racket, and I believe that my last match was playing Sam and Melissa with Rich. Too many running injuries to play, I thought my tennis playing days were well over. Rich played 6 years ago with a couple of British guys in Boston... But last weekend, with memories of Tiger Tim in mind, we headed to the local court and resumed our play. It's been a lot of fun... We're a long way from our epic matches in Spain, but it's surprising what you remember.
Rich was VERY keen to blog following our first scoring match, which, of course he won in a 7-6 tie-break, but less keen when, the next day I thrashed him 6-2,... and then the next day 6-1. He did come back ad take a set at 6-3, but yesterday we had another round and he lost 6-1.
Aside from tennis we've been busy gardening, swimming in the lake, cycling, rowing, and walking the pups...
Oh yes, and watching the Tour de France.
