You know, two, three hits, maybe it's not going to be like you're out there killing yourself. So I practiced at the end of last year. I got a bunch of really good players and friends of mine in Florida where I spend the winters to work with me. And I went in the U.S. Open. and competed there and won the triple crown, singles, mixed doubles, and men's doubles.

And I got a nice partner, Fred Shuey, in men's doubles. We've won a lot of titles together, and he's 80 years old as well. And then I found Sue Matthews, who we won the US Open. She played really well, and so I was able to do that. Because when you play doubles, It's all about your partner, because if your partner is not good, they're going to run through him.

And my partner was Alice Tim, who was a former number 13 in the world during the Billie Jean King Day in tennis and played with Alice and Tim. won easily.
