First lady Michelle Obama says she hopes to still be playing tennis when she's 90.
Obama visited the U.S. Open for the first time Friday to promote her campaign against childhood obesity and praise the U.S. Tennis Association's initiative to build kid-sized courts.

My high-school career saw 2 years with a Wilson Pro-Staff (VS gut almost broke the bank!) and then, in succession, Yamaha YFG-30, Yamaha (Sandwich) Composite and a PDP.
College saw me stick to the Wilson brand and, as I aged, the flex got more stiff.
At 53, I am proud to say I can still stick the center T with a flat serve over 90 mph (but...that’s it!). That’s why I’m collecting more than I’m playing.
He even had a very short-lived talk show on CNBC where he tried to market himself as a liberal talking head. Apparently no one cared.

I’d be happy too with red-carpet treatment at the US Open.

I think it depends on who she is with.
...Gallery of WHORES. Every time BHO talks he looks like HE’S at a tennis match. They should just drill a hole in his head and, never mind...
‘Cuz wining, dining, and watching tennis is more fun!
Absolutely.
Wookie fashionable balls?
LOL!
