Connor was in his first national tennis tournament in Ft. Myers, FL. You have to be ranked and have a certain number of points to get into these tournaments. This is where he plays against kids who go to academy's or are home schooled and do nothing but play tennis for 5 hours a day. It was tough tennis and he lost the first two matches in singles. He then played doubles and got paired up with a boy from Arizona. They played really well together and won 2 matches. It had rained all week and finally the tournament had to cancel all doubles play and try to finish out the singles. He was disappointed because since he had lost in the singles round he now could not finish out the doubles. I am very proud of him and he knows he needs to work a lot harder to keep up with all these kids. We are off to Columbus GA for the next national tournament.
