Tennis Quote of the Day: Tracy Austin on Tennis' Life Lessons

"Tennis is often an all-consuming sport . . . Every so often [we] have to step back and realize that tennis is an amazing teaching tool. The game itself is great, but the life lessons it can impart are far more valuable . . . discipline . . . time management . . . problem-solving and critical thinking . . . independence  . . . self-reliance . . . develop[ing] relationships with others."

-- Tracy Austin, Former World No. 1 and three-time Grand Slam champion from Tennis' Life Lessons, Tennis Magazine (July-August 2015), p. 10.
