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.”
“Everyone should compete in events like this!”
“There’s such an amazing atmosphere and spirit, as well as the competition, which is brilliant and that’s why I would encourage everyone to compete in events like this.”
“I participate because I still can!”
“People say; why are you doing it, and I say: “because I can!””
