Nice Serve

So last Friday, I played tennis with Hubert, Chang, and Jeremy who's been in town visiting for the past week (Chang has the recap of everything we've been up to). When we arrived at stadium court at Stanford, who should be there but none other than legendary tennis coach Dick Gould. After warming up for a few minutes, we played some doubles, Hubert and Jeremy against Chang and me. At the same time, Gould was setting up and testing out ball machines, so he'd pass by our court every now and then. During the match, I served out wide, placing it in the corner of the service box for a winner. As Gould passed by, he commented, "Nice serve".

Chang made me a logo, capturing my "nice serve".
Damn, that is one sweet serve.

  • Did you serve it to me or Jeremy? I bet I crushed the return, if it was me.

  • It was a service winner, so if you crushed it, you crushed it into the net, or out of bounds. ;)

  • Well, it was to your backhand, Jeremy, go figure. I guess that's why it was such a "nice serve" :)

    And yes, he did compliment my ass, but I didn't think that was as noteworthy, since I get that all the time.
