A tennis racket is a pretty good tool. But a hammer would not be good.

I haven't played a set like that in two years and I pretty much haven't played tennis like that. I guess the shoulder got fatigued and then it strained a little bit. It's just bad luck.

I think the way that the whole region really took to tennis in that week was pretty amazing.

The 14 hard courts at this public tennis center are a real gem in the Pacific Northwest. One of the better-run facilities in the country, they offer several leagues and scheduled events. You also can just drop in and pick up a game.

After (the first set), he played pretty high quality tennis. He just couldn't hold down the match.

I'm actually a pretty good tennis player!
