Verbal commitment announcements for blue chips are frequent this time of year, and I've been able to talk with a few top recruits about their choices. Wil Spencer and I spoke at the Tulsa ITF about his choice of Texas A & M, and the story is available today on The Tennis Recruiting Network. With Spencer and Austin Krajicek, Steve Denton has already fashioned a very impressive recruiting class.
Julie Wrege of The Tennis Recruiting Network attended the 80th birthday party for USTA Florida's Bobby Curtis Saturday and was kind enough to send this photo--
--from the festivities held at the home of Jean Mills in Vero Beach, and hosted by Mills and Lynne Salus. Along with 150 others, Rick Davison (pictured) helped celebrate the Florida junior tennis legend. But that wasn't the end of the fun--on Sunday, there was another get-together in Miami, where Curtis worked for many years, helping thousands of youngsters from the city develop a love and appreciation of the sport of tennis at Moore Park. Because my husband and I have a family celebration of our own coming up, we weren't able to attend either party, but we're looking forward to passing along our best wishes in person when we see him at the Eddie Herr or Junior Orange Bowl. If you'd like to send a card, his address is: USTA Florida 1 Deuce Ct Ste 100 Daytona Beach FL 32124. I know he appreciates hearing from juniors whose lives he's touched over the years. Here's the Florida section's story on the tribute to Curtis that was held at the Sony Ericsson event this past March.
Kalamazoo 18s champion Michael McClune picked up another Pro Circuit Futures win yesterday in Mansfield, Texas. The Dallas Star-Telegram had a reporter on site, and he filed this story on McClune's victory over Carsten Ball. Ball and McClune have played four times since July, with Ball winning the first two, McClune the two most recent.
And in this story from Tom Tebbutt, who writes about tennis for the Toronto Globe and Mail, points out that an ATP point was available just for signing up for the $25,000 Challenger event in Rimouski, Quebec, as a long list of withdrawals left the tournament without a qualifying field and even left the event one player short filling the main draw.
