tennis

The tennis fever is heating up. Now it's the middle of the men's singles final and it's delayed because of the rain. Roger Federer, who is my favourite, seems to be losing out to Andy Roddick. Indeed, Andy has a great and imposing serve of which even the defending champion has difficulty returning. Oh well, i hope federer wins...he's a really cool guy..doesn't show any emotion at all even if he's in a losing streak..amazing.

As for me, this morning i went for some tennis with my friend at NUS. Still haven't recovered from my aches from the badminton game i had last week and unfortunately that has affected my play i guess. First time i tried in a practice court too and i must say, it's pretty fun playing there. The practice court is just a wall where you hit the ball to and it bounces back and you hit again. It's much more fun as i don't have to waste time picking the ball up so many times if i play for singles. Still haven't got my technique quite there yet and i'm still figuring out on finding the most comfortable strokes.

Yeah, tennis day today for me..:)
