Her hard-work should be recognized as a game changer in tennis and people should…

You open the can and the first thing you can smell is the aroma from the new tennis balls. You pick up one of the balls and feel the fuzz before you toss it. All you hear is your own thoughts, there is only the sound of silence and then one whack, just one whack is all you need to hear to know that you are doing something that’ll last.
