    I have taken up wheelchair tennis. It's really good. Has anybody else?

    Has Anyone Watched Wheelchair Tennis Before?
    And if so, what is it like, is it entertaining?
    I think tennis nuts like us should support it. I'd love to see a match, but sadly I don't think there are any big tournaments in Canada.

    Isn't there a woman who hasn't lost since 2001 or something?
    Any stories would be great.

    And Sean....if you have found a sport that you love, keep it up. I'm a bit worried about my lack of exercise now that I'm at the age where most people go for a walk to keep fit. I can walk but I certainly don't do it for pleasure! Used to play wheelchair basketball (Brilliant game) but gave it up as I got older and very sorry now.
