Wimbledon Finals

Always exciting, the Wimbledon championship matches seemed liked history repeating itself, but with the opposite outcomes.

Always exciting, the Wimbledon championship matches seemed liked history repeating itself, but with the opposite outcomes. The Williams sisters battled it in the finals again this year, but with Serena coming out on top beating her older sister. This was Serena's third time winning Wimbledon, and by beating her sister she stopped Venus from winning the title for three years in a row. The sisters put any sibling rivalry behind them and ripped it up in the women's doubles finals, winning the title for the fourth time.


Check out some pics from the finals and read about the men's final.

Tennis Anyone? Warm Up Before You Hit the Court

If you find yourself all fired up to play tennis after watching Wimbledon, let me remind you to warm up before you rally.

If you find yourself all fired up to play tennis after watching Wimbledon, let me remind you to warm up before you rally. Watching elite athletes can be really deceptive. They lunge, jump, and volley with such ease, but this is one game that can be hard on your body. One way to prevent injuries is to warm up properly. Here are a few things I think you should do before jumping onto the court with your racquet.

  • First you want to prime your heart and lungs for all the running, bouncing, and sprinting you will be doing on the court. Jog for five to ten minutes to get your blood flowing. Your body should feel warm. I follow this with a minute or two of small jumps, like I'm working out with a fake jump rope. Then do a few grapevines the length of the court to prime your fancy footwork and wake up your coordination.
