    Are there any tennis followers in EC?!

    I personally follow the sport (almost religiously..) and play the sport. I think watching the pros is just so thrilling. I dream of one day being wealthy enough to visit Roland Garros and Wimbledon.

    Plus, watching hot European men work out doesn't exactly hurt. However, that is OBVIOUSLY not the reason I watch. :lol:

    I've been playing tennis my whole life. :slight_smile: It's a great sport. My favorite player was Marat Safin, but he retired...so at the moment it's Nadal.

    Yep! Played it since I was 8/9. I don't know why I love it, it's fun, tireing, which gets your adrenaline going. It's got everything a sport needs! :slight_smile:

    Too bad no one at school loves it as much as I do... :frowning2:

    I don't watch it very often, but I definitely enjoy playing it. Which reminds me. I need to get a new grip on my racket. Mine is pretty worn out.

    Awwww. It's not a very "occasional" sport I guess. After not playing for 2 weeks (usually during finals time), I always feel like I forgot how to play. :lol:

    We would be best friends. Novak is my favorite person ever .... I mean player. :lol:

    Roddick actually drew me to the game. I enjoy DelPo, but my favorite is Novak. :lol:

    Nooooooo. I am the opposite of a Federer supporter. :lol:

    Finding people to play with is definitely the biggest downside to tennis. It's just so... picky? The sport I mean if that makes any sense.

    Love watching and playing tennis. Huge Federer fan here.

    I visited the Wimbledon grounds, but not during the tournament. Still an amazing place to visit.

    I'm a huge tennis player and watcher of the sport (Federer all the way)!

    I'm actually going to the French Open and Wimbledon this year, super excited! :icon_bigg

    Tennis is hard :frowning2: I really like playing but its difficult to get over that gap where your rallies only last one maybe two hits. thats why i prefer racquetball. you just hit the ball and it does stuff.
