The tournament season comes up quickly every year and many of our CTA players have already started to compete in tournaments in Charlotte and throughout the southeast. The boys high school season has also recently begun. I came across the following quote the other day which sums up, better than I ever could, the best perspective from which to approach competitive tennis (or whatever endeavors we pursue in life). I would love to hear back from our players or parents on how this might apply to their pursuits.
‘Somewhere in the world there is defeat for everyone. Some are destroyed by defeat and some are made small and mean by victory. Greatness lives in one who triumphs equally over defeat and victory.’
- John Steinbeck
