It was a surreal event.  I had watched him play for so many years. He was everything I had expected.  He is so cool even when he runs it looks effortless.

Watched Andy Murray. It was an honour.

TIP:  The pros don’t use vibration dampeners.  Every player at this tournament I have seen did not use a dampener.

John, Mitch, Eldon, and Ari.  Thanks guys.  Today I felt like I could volley but then I lost it for a while.

Eldon gave a tip on my toss for my second serve.  He told me to toss it above my head.  It worked well.  Another four or six inches back.  Hmm back to the serve I had started with years ago.  Thanks.  I should have never left it.
