My boyfriend was a big tennis player through high school and college. We are always looking for fun, new ways to spend time outdoors together, and conveniently, there is a tennis court a few miles away from our house. At the end of last summer, he bought me a racket and rewrapped his old one so that we could start playing together. We didn't get too many days out there before winter set in, but admittedly, I was terrible. The learning curve was huge for me, and I didn't see that coming.
I've always been pretty athletic, but on the tennis court....I am a downright disaster. I would love some advice from the tennis players out there? Being taught a new skill from a significant other can be difficult, but he's the only person I've ever played with. What tips would you have for someone starting from zero?
