Played tennis today with an interesting guy who played challengers 20

who were ranked 500-700 level & she beat them about 2 times out of 5 -
no throwing off going 100%.
I said imo someone like Henin would probably beat the crap out of most
club pros & he agreed (though he didn't like her for defaulting AO final
so roots against her lol).
He played Jason Stoltenberg but got flogged as he was 'a pretty good
player'. He also lost to Agassi when he was 16 & Andre 12 in some
junior McDonald's challenge - 'those guys just never make errors'. He
said he made about 30 errors while Andre made 4 or 5. He said the
really good players simply never made mistakes.
Incidentally I beat him 6-4, but he has bum knees & is overweight, but
excellent groundies. I feel I won only because I could move him all
round the court - If he lost weight & moved better he'd probably have
too many guns for me.
He also thinks Federer is much better than Sampras, but I let that slide.
lol good done.
you've been in a good humour recently - despite everything ;)
