You hardly see class in tennis. Venus and Serena while they've revitalized the game, I do not think have much class in the court. Kournikova, not only revitalized the game but also men's sexual imaginations.

I guess high school tennis is not as different as sports like football. Problems I can think of are parents and their delusions of sports grandeur, general moral decline and sports scouts.

Parents....
want their kid to play singles, not doubles (or vice versa)
want their kid to play more
want to schedule different opponents
want to coach during matches
want to make bad calls if it helps junior win...

and we wonder where the kids get it..
