Tennis

I wanted to find a sport I could enjoy watching and playing to connect to that physical and athletic side of myself that has been missing. Also to connect more to my husband who loves all sports. We have been to two of the four Grand Slams, and I am hoping to play some casual tennis this summer in the free courts of New York City where I live.
