Personal Statement

Ive played tennis since I was 10 years old.  This game has rapidly become one of my greatest passions.  My determination to succeed grows stronger every day, every match played, whether I win or lose.  I see tennis also as a vehicle to further my education and hopefully become a professional tennis player. I come from a humble background, so I tend to approach aspects of the game from outside the box (i.e. an unorthodox shot or a hole in my opponents game).  I currently train 2 hours a day for tennis and complete my academic assignments each day to the best of my ability.
