Quality Tennis!

So yesterdays tennis at the Australian Open will go down in history. First lets talk about the mens draw....Roddick loses in five, Blake wins in five, Federer wins in five and as I write Hewitt has his fifth match point in a four and a half hour match. They are playing at four am in the morning! What an incredible shape you have to be in to last that long. Not only fast and quick but you must be able to endure, to be the stronger person late in the match. 

Now the girls! Kirelenko took out Chakvetadze in a tough three set match! By the way, Kirelenko might be the most fashionable player out there. The young Radwanksa took out Kuznetsova. Anna Ivanovic won in two sets moving her on to the next round. Love that blue Adidas dress.....And Venus Williams playing under the lights won in two sets!!! 

On todays line up I am really excited about Serena Williams taking on Nichole Vaidasova. That has the makings of a being a hard hitting battle. Jankovic, who has barely scraped by, is taking on the hot young Australian Dallacqua. Going to be entertaining!

Yesterday I worked out hard in the gym (tried to be my own Jillian Micheals, ha) and then last night my husband and I played tennis. We played a set and a game of twenty one. Of course he won the set (guys serves!) and I won the next. But we were spent. Think about the quality of play and length of the matches the pros are having! I think I need a little more off court work and to play alot more tennis to be able to hit that intensity for as long as they do. 

I would love to inspire you today to get outside and play tennis! Grab your boyfriend, bestfriend or mom.... Trust me you will have FUN and get a workout!!
