Fred Hesse, an active tennis player at age 80, learned to play tennis when he was 15 years old. He became one of the top players in the Junior Division and later in the Adult Division in the Eastern Section. Fred won the Eastern Interscholastic Net Championship at Columbia University two years in a row. He played in the National Men's Tournament at Forest Hills on grass, but lost in the first round. Fred also played at the National Men's Indoor Tournament in New York City, but lost in the first round. Fred and his father played in the Father & Son Division tennis tournaments where they were ranked third in the Eastern Section and ninth in the United States in the 1950s. Because there were no professional players - a rich man's sport only - he stopped playing tennis and went to work. At age 55, with the encouragement of his wife, Lynn, Fred started to play tennis again and paired up with his wife in the 55 Senior USTA Mixed Doubles Division. They were ranked #1 in Florida in 1998, when they were in their 60s. In the 65 Men's Singles Division of Florida, Fred was ranked #15 and #19 in 2002 and 2003, respectively. He and his doubles partner from Oregon were ranked #3 and #4 in 2002 and 2003, respectively, in the 65 Men's Doubles Division of the USTA in Florida. Fred loves tennis; and he has remarkable knowledge about how to help students improve. GCT is lucky to present these excellent tips for everyone to share. Go to www.playtennisintheparks.com . Then go to Legend's Advice from Fred Hesse. There you can find some articles Fred wrote. Fred teaches all the tennis strokes to beginners, intermediate and advanced players. He also teaches the mental, concentration and psychological aspects of tennis. The art of teaching tennis is a molding process coaxing a player in the correct direction with a variety of mental and physical techniques. What is the difference between tennis champions and ordinary tennis players? It's not the power of the serve, grace of their footwork, the strength of their forehand or backhand. "IT'S THE POWER OF THE MIND"
