Today was the last day for Cameron's indoor tennis season and he finished it with a tournament at Eastlake Athletic Club. He played well, but lost a grueling tiebreak in the first set of his first match which led to a quick end to the second set as well. Cameron wasn't too disappointed when he got home for a break before his second match of the night. He and Doug arrived early to the second round. Fortunately, the court was open so the match was under way well before the 8 p.m. start time.
Doug didn't stay too long as it was crowded in the viewing area. Instead he used the time to work as Champion's office was only three miles away. Cam's second opponent was tougher than his first one. Cameron won several games, but lost in two sets in the consolation round. Even though Cam didn't find the success in this tournament as he had in others this winter, we were all glad that he played. In November we weren't even sure that Cam would be able to play at all because of the pandemic. Weekly lessons, three Bethany matches and three tournaments later provided him an avenue to work during the off season to improve his tennis skills and it definitely showed.
