Phylicia’s Tennis Story:
What’s not to Love about tennis? It’s such an exhilarating sport. I started playing tennis when I was younger actually. It was golf, tennis and volleyball.
I always enjoyed watching. I grew up with the Williams sisters as my idols. You know, who doesn’t idolize them?
And now as an adult, I just appreciate the athleticism, the sport, the history, the beauty of the style of play, the outfits, the heritage events. I mean, I look forward to so many tournaments, the Grand Slams, of course, being a lot of our favorites, but, you know, you even have Indian wells, which is not an official grand slam, but often people call it the fifth grand slam. So a dream would be to attend all of them.
I have the Australian Open left and that will happen. It’s incredible to enjoy such an amazing sport with friends and family. And yeah, to watch the generation now, Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner, Coco Gauff, Naomi Osaka is just, it’s so much fun.
And you think about the potential of the sport and you just, it gets you even more excited about the future and how you can be involved. It’s a great sport to play. It’s an incredible sport to watch.
And it’s great for your health, too. So everyone get involved. There’s many variations and many ways to get involved.
So what a fun sport and I’m so excited to continue to watch the Incredible athletes grow and develop and and see what they do.
