I made the finals today of my LATA tournament and I think my opponent tomorrow will not be as tough as the one I played in my second match today. It’s obviously not a sure thing, but at least I will have a good shot of securing the win for the entire tournament, which is very cool. It’s been a long time since I’ve played a tennis tournament in a serious way and, to be honest, I don’t really get that much enjoyment out of it. I feel that I do it as a form of exercise, but that’s sort of it. Everything else about it is kind of not that pleasant for me, to be honest. The pressure also sort of tends to get to my head as I’ve alluded to in the previous post.
I honestly don’t really know what more to say on this front. Tennis has always been a way for me to make friends, but I don’t think I’ve even made many truly lasting friendships with this sport over my lifetime. At the end of the day, I should feel somewhat proud that I was able to string four singles match wins in a row and I think I am. I just need to make sure that tomorrow goes well as well, especially maybe with Tom watching and everything. I’ve gone off on a deep tangent with this post and I don’t know what more to say at the moment. All in all, I feel that whatever positives tennis has given me in my life, perhaps it’s not enough.
