I had the opportunity last week to play in a pro-am event to benefit the petoskey community tennis courts. What a fun local fundraising events with 8 teams, kids events and lots of community out to watch and support the event.
My partner was the local h.s. coach John Boyer who played for Alma college. He,has a big serve and great net game, always in place and covering the court well. He carried us the first set, with big serves and putaway volleys.
I held my own, and I played well the first set, so-so the second, and then out my mind during the 3rd 8 game pro set. Everything was clickin, returns were rockin, angled and dtl volleys winning points and my serve damm near perfect. I was kicking serves, then banged 3 aces down the T on the ad side, amd against a young guy who plays Div. 1 college tennis. I think the score was 8-3, & we finished 3rd in a really solid group of players.
Fun tennis!
