I used to go to the Volvo tournement at Stratton Mt every year.
The first year Agassi ever did well he was 17. They flew his parents out to watch him as a surprise.
The absolute best was watching John McEnroe. Such grace, ability etc. He was a genius. He would explode with anger and his game would elevate to levels nobody else could achieve. Fucking amazing!
Connors was pretty bad ass too.
I was lucky enough to meet a lot of guys I looked up to back then.
Oh, and to answer your question.
Its the only time in you life you can wear white shorts and a white shirt with white shoes and look bad ass!
Connors was always one of my favorites, I would have killed to have seen him play live. I loved how he would totaly play off of the crowd and do that huge fist pump making the fans go crazy.
My best experience was getting the chance to hit a few balls with Michael Chang, another one of my favorites back then.
