Athlete Comments & Reviews

“I do many sports so I can choose what my body is capable of”

“You have to keep moving, I had a new start after my new hips at 60-61 so I’ve got another 15 years at least hopefully. Luckily I do a lot of sailing as well, and swimming. So there are other sports if I can’t play tennis any longer but I love to keep going for as long as possible.”

“You never stop learning and growing”

“This year I have hit times I haven’t hit for years. You can still always challenge yourself and do better. There’s just no excuse. You can pick up a new sport, have a go at something different.”

“It’s the magic of the crowd, being with so many great people”

“I think just being part of the event has been the highlight of it all, winning would have been nice but didn’t really matter in the end. It’s just being there with everybody and meeting new people.”
