Kinda disheartening seeing the players I "grew up" with in tennis hitting retirement age.  I just graduated from high school in 92 after playing on the tennis team for my last two years.   That match was great to watch... Goran's big serve and volley versus Andre's returns and passing shots for five long sets.  I remember being in awe of Goran's first serve - I think it was in the 120-130 mph range.  Now we got guys like Roddick hitting 140-150.  Grun, do you play?
