Apparently you've never heard of Andy Roddick. The kid has served 150 mph and he's only adding more heat. I was unlucky enough to play him once in 16 and under nationals. It was in Kalamazoo and his serve was a fucking rocket. I've also had to deal with Taylor Dent in the 14's nationals in San Antonio. Needless to say, I had my ass handed to me on both occasions. 6-1 6-3 against Roddick and 6-4-6-2 against Dent.
I'm a tennis player and I have been since I was 4. I've played my entire life, held national junior rankings and I played for a division 1 school that has finished top 25. I love the sport and it's an individual sport that takes true resiliancy.....
However, I hate watching it. I'm not a fan of watching any sports, but tennis can be a major snooze.
