I've been trying to play at least one game of Tennis per week lately. Sometimes I get to play 2, maybe 3. I work with Ben J., he's a designer at our office. He's a good player already, beating me just about every time we play. I may have beaten him once, but I'm not sure. It was tied 6-6.

Today we played two sets, 6-2, and 6-2. He won both. All 4 of my wins came within a 5 game strech in the middle. So he won 5, I won 2, he won 1, I won 2, then he won 6.

We played our second game on the clay courts of Frick Park. These are the only free clay tennis courts in Pittsburgh. If you want to use one anywhere else, you gotta belong to a Tennis/Country Club. There are 6 courts.

I would love to be better at Tennis, but I don't have the training or practice. I've never had any teaching besides mimicking what I see on TV/Internet.
