1. Where do you play Hot Shots and what stage do you currently play?

   I do Hot Shots training with green balls and play on Saturday mornings.

2. What do you like about playing tennis?

   I love that you can play tennis all year round and have lots of friends outside of school.

3. What is your favourite shot and why?

   Forehand volley is my favourite shot because I like placing winners.

4. Who do you like playing tennis with?

   I like playing tennis with my Dad – soon I might be able to beat him!  I also like playing tennis with lots of different people because everyone is different at tennis.

5. Do you have a favourite tennis player?

   Roger Federer is my favourite tennis player because he is the greatest of all time and he always shows good sportsmanship on and off the court.

6. Do you have any tennis goals?

   My goal is to constantly improve my tennis and to one day play for Australia in the Davis Cup.

7. What is your favourite tennis memory?

   Winning my Club’s best and fairest.

8. How does it feel to be nominated for the Tennis Hot Shot of the Year award?

   Super!  I am really excited and can’t wait until January!

9. What are you looking forward to when you visit the Australian Open?

   Hopefully meeting Roger Federer and getting to see him play.  I would also love to see Sam Groth break the serving speed record.
