PRESIDENT'S PERSPECTIVE
I hope tennis is on your list of things to be thankful for this year! Whether it's the friends you've made, the experiences you've had or the better health it's provided - tennis certainly has been a gift to each of us. I hope you'll in turn find a small way to give back to the sport you love this holiday season and throughout the year.
