Greetings, readers. Yes, we know I’ve been absent for a while. I decided to do what many tennis players do and just disappear. Some send us injury photos, hospital photos, or updates. Others simply disappear for a while.
Well, I’m BACK—with a huge agenda for 2026.
We know that the current owner of the Arthur Ashe Cartier briefcase (vintage 1970s) is putting it up for sale. Opening bid: 50 grand.
We’re hearing from some of our coaches that the teams are changing again. It’s dancing season. Change partners. Change coaches. Change dances.
That’s today’s tease.
Oh—and we saved the best for last. Happy Birthday, Alex Kuperstein. We’re thrilled to have you join our team. We’re hopeful you’ll be with a Solinco frame and family by the end of the week. For years, Alex has played with their strings • the Hyper-G.
Editor’s Note: If you are in America and love pecans. We ordered from a place in Georgia – Godwin Pecans ( https://www.godwinpecans.com/ ) and they were so good. We’ve ordered 5 times. (LJ)
