Millie played her first USTA tourney of the year this weekend. She has played in a few in the past but then last year decided she didn't like tennis and didn't play any. So I didn't push her and I just asked that she play one year for her middle school this year and if she still didn't like it then I would let her give it up. Well, doesn't mother always know best? She loved it and it's all she wants to do now. We signed her up for several USTA tourneys this summer. The first one was this weekend and although she is 10, they didn't have a 10u division so she played in 12u. There were 6 girls in her bracket and she beat her first 2 opponents easily making it to the championship game. I knew the last one would give her some fight but she pulled it off winning the first 2 sets and didn't even have to play the 3rd set. I was very proud of her! Her opponent was older and played mostly in Indianapolis about every month in a tourney.
I only got photos of her second match because rain moved us indoors for the final one.
