The angle from which the line and ball are seen makes a tremendous difference in the call, and the player who is inclined to fret inwardly about decisions should realize this.

Balls should be good for at least six sets, and for more for the average player. But if the rallies are long, they do not last as long as this. There is a fuzz on the surface that wears off on the hard court.

Spectators often express disfavor of fair decisions.

Unless a player goes in for intensive play and tournament competition, two racquets are sufficient.

I can remember when, as a beginner, I was delighted with any ball as long as it would bounce.

I love the feel of hitting the ball hard, the pleasure of a rally. It is these things that make tennis the delightful game that it is.
