Athlete Comments & Reviews
“I do many sports so I can choose what my body is capable of”
“You have to keep moving, I had a new start after my new hips at 60-61 so I’ve got another 15 years at least hopefully. Luckily I do a lot of sailing as well, and swimming. So there are other sports if I can’t play tennis any longer but I love to keep going for as long as possible.”
“As a supporter we also have such a great time!”
“As a spouse we also get exposed to different people in different countires and get to socialise with different people, so it’s lovely. We have such a great time!”
“Sport helps mentally and physically”
“Sport is so important, because it keeps you sharp. I don’t just mean physically but mentally as well. Everybody gets stressed by different things in their life and just being able to get out there and exercise, getting rid of a little bit of that tension can help you mentally as well physically.”
