Singles Championship at Sharon Open 2011

In a sweat drenched two set match, I was able to beat Al Kelly 6-2, 7-6 (4) to win the Men's Intermediate Singles Championship at the 2011 Sharon Open at Buhl Park. This was a special win because it was the first tennis championship that my daughter watched me play.
Before the match, my 5 year old daughter hit a few tennis balls. I hope to win some mixed doubles championships with her some day.

Remember The Fun You Had As A Kid

Remember the fun you had playing board games as a kid? I get to see it through a new set of eyes.

Who Does Federer Really Want To Win Wimbledon?


Federer is the all time Grand Slam leader with 16 titles. No current player is even close, except for Nadal with 10. It is clear that Federer will not be collecting Grand Slam titles at the pace he did for 6 glorious years. He may still have one or two left in him as he rapidly approaches the age of 30. Therefore, my thoughts are that Federer may secretly root for Djokovic and others (but not Nadal) to share future Grand Slam titles. No one is likely to catch Federer in Grand Slam titles except Nadal.
