Well, it is finally springtime and everyone is finally coming out of hibernation!!! I have had a wonderful winter season, resting, working on my strength and conditioning, and getting ready to get back on the courts to teach my wonderful ladies at the Adams Swim and Tennis Club!! I was very proud of them because they did not put away their racquets for the winter, but instead, they worked on their game and now they are ready to compete.

I am gearing up for my upcoming World Team and Individual Tournament in Mallorca, Spain. As I said before, I have really been putting in the work in the gym. I feel stronger, faster, and more confident than I ever have. Why did I not do this before, hire a personal trainer to specifically work on strengthening for tennis?? I have always worked out some, but not with this intensity, focus , and the proper training, and it shows!!! I am ready!!

My ankle has improved a great deal, still not perfect, but not bothering me on the court. I feel confident with my movement, a great feeling considering I could barely walk a month ago!! Once again the lay off was good and I think that is why I am back playing again this quickly.

Well, until we meet again!! Good bye
