With determination as my compass, I triumphed in the opening encounter, showcasing my prowess and strategic finesse to secure victory. However, the path to glory proved to be laden with twists and turns as I encountered setbacks in the second bout, where despite my best efforts, victory eluded my grasp. Undeterred, I rallied in the third match, summoning resilience and skill to clinch another well-deserved win. Alas, the tournament's final showdown brought forth formidable opposition, and despite a valiant effort, I fell short, succumbing to defeat in the fourth and final match. Though the journey ended with a mixed bag of results, the experience was invaluable, leaving me enriched with lessons to fuel my growth and aspirations in future competitions.

I am definitely aiming to be top 4 next year on the ladder and play singles! My First Tennis Tournament5/14/2023 I have played tennis for 3 years and started to play competitive tournaments for my UTR (Universal Tennis Ranking). I was anxious about how my first tournament would go. To prepare for this tournament, I spent 2 days on the court getting ready for the big match. On the day of the tournament, I was nervous but played decent the whole time. The players I went against were challenging and gave me a goal to strive for. During the games I lost my composure but regained it and continued playing. Though I lost all my games, I learned that there is always going to be someone better than you and you have to respect that.
Pinewood vs. Harker Tennis Game Win5/14/2023 On Friday April 28, Pinewood JH Tennis beat Harker 5-4. If you don't know, I play for Pinewood's JH Tennis Team and we are currently undefeated this year having 5 wins and 0 losses.
In our game, I played doubles with my friend Shaan. He was really strong at the net while I was strong at the base line. We had great synergy but even with our best efforts, we lost 8-7 tiebreaker 9-7. It was so close but if I tried to go to the net, we could have attacked better and win. Our top 4 won all 8-0 and all our doubles lost except the deciding game with my brother winning it! Our next game is against Crystal Springs and I am thrilled to play! This is where I will post all my sport experiences and matches.- Tennis for Pinewood |
