The year that was... 2010

2010 was a very mixed bag for Greg in Tennis. He started the year well, with a first round win in the Men's Doubles in the Australian Open, followed by a finals showing in the Burnie Challenger and then again in the Berri Futures tournament. Playing the Challenger circuit in the USA, Mexico and Ecuador Greg achieved a singles ranking high of 179 in the first half of the year. He then showed much promise in both the Wimbledon and US Open qualifying by winning his first round at each tournament, beating the No.2 seed at Flushing Meadows.
Greg then had a minor setback with the unfortunate accident between two taxis in New York, which left him with badly bruised knees and unable to play or train for four weeks, forcing him to miss three tournaments and affect his fitness. He bounced back to reach the final of the Men's Singles at the Commonwealth Games, representing Australia and earning a silver medal for his efforts.
Unfortunately he sustained an achilles injury in that match which further impaired his ability to train and get fit. The lack of tournament play and fitness saw his ranking begin to slide, with Greg finishing the year at a lower rank, at 261, than which he started the year, despite having an excellent year of tennis.

Here's to Greg bouncing right back in 2011 and being incident free and fully fit for the whole year.
