Update 8-31-13

Been watching the US Open this year. Since I haven't played much but have practiced some getting ready for the fall season, this is a good thing to do to get some pointers from the pros. You get different techniques, ideas and strategies by just watching the pros. Next time you are on the court, try them.

Practice, Practice, Practice. That is the only way you will be better.

Update 8-7-03

It has been a while since I have posted anything on this blog. Been going through alot of stuff and my tennis is kind of been on the back burner. Unfortunately, the momentum that I had, has slowed and been put on hold. The more that I played, the better I became and gained confidence. With the confidence, came the wins.
Have had some personal problems that has hampered my tennis playing. On top of that, I have been having back issues. I also for some time now, I have had a bad big toe on my right foot. Last year, I saw a doctor about my toe and he suggested surgery. I have been putting it off and continued to play. I was hurting last season in league play and it did not help that our team was not that good. After taking some time to research the problem I have with my toe, surgery looks to be the answer, but am still worried on how I will be able to move with screws in my foot.
Came to find out that Lleyton Hewitt also had the same problem that I have bee going through and he had been sidelined for a couple of years with injuries. I don't know if that specific toe injury kept him off the court or if it was a combination of other injuries as well.
There seems to be hope seeing Hewitt return and playing well. I hope that I too, can get back on the court and pick up where I left off before all the personal problems and injuries hit me.

I believe, that once I get back to playing without the injuries, and if I can focus on playing instead of having my personal problems creep in, that I can again gain the confidence and win. I look forward to that day, be it having support or going it alone.
