In tennis, you strike a ball just after the rebound for the fastest return. It's the same with investment.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Once you succeed in tennis, financially you become quite well off.
Tennis is basically a game where you try to create an opportunity for yourself to finish the point, because you can't wait for the opponent to miss anymore. Well, if you create an opportunity and don't take advantage of it, you let the opponent back to even, then you are just starting the point over, so you have to take advantage of them.
In tennis it's easy to get greedy - and one Grand Slam doesn't feel enough any more.
Tennis takes care of everything. It requires agility and quickness to get to the ball, core strength to get power into your shorts and stamina to last for an entire match. In addition to toning your arms and shoulders, it's a total body workout for your legs and abs, and works your heart and core unlike any other sport.
What I want out of tennis is not necessarily just winning.
I call tennis the McDonald's of sport - you go in, they make a quick buck out of you, and you're out.
Economics is about creating win-win situations. But in sports, someone loses.
In tennis, you can make a couple of mistakes and still win. Not in golf. I played three rounds in that Tahoe event, and I was drained. Mentally, not physically.
With tennis, you can go pick up a racket, take a lesson, and understand how much talent and skill it takes to be as good as the top pros. Same with golf: pick up a club. But not many can go out and get in a race car and experience a drive at over 200 miles an hour.
Tennis is a mental game. Everyone is fit, everyone hits great forehands and backhands.
