There is no cheap way to achieve the ability to turn pro in tennis it unfortunately is more expensive than team sports.
Martina Navratilova
The tennis ball doesn't know how old I am. The ball doesn't know if I'm a man or a woman or if I come from a communist country or not. Sport has always broken down these barriers.
