Some Tennis Accent

Some Tennis Accent

A Story by Abishai100
"

Conversation with a net pen-pal about a tennis comeback quality-adverb concerning that bind of sports with (simplified) uncertainty.

"
A nod to what makes tennis image a thing of social media culture distance, inspired (very-loosely) by Wimbledon (Kirsten Dunst).

ME: Well, it was one glorious 1988 Lipton-Biscayne (men's tennis) that saw a return.
PEN-PAL: I know it, bud; Krickstein was down 0-2 sets and won the next 2!
ME: Against the legend (Agassi) who retired (eventually) in the 5th-set (damn).
PEN-PAL: You cite this upstart-image, since he'd been "Marathon-Man" of tennis.
ME: After breaking into world-rankings as the youngest-ever, Krickstein became.
PEN-PAN: He's won more matches after trailing 0-2 sets then imaginable, no?
ME: Selfie-like.



ME: Agassi was then the hot-flyer prodigy who'd eventually become champ-lore.
PEN-PAL: Krickstein upset top-players in his career as the "Marathon-Man" label!
ME: Yes, and that 1988 Lipton-Biscayne event was premonition for future intrigue.
PEN-PAL: Aha, such as Krickstein's marathon return from 0-2 sets in the 1995 Aussie Open!
ME: Sounds-dialysis for the 'leviathan' of sports-windows/uncertainty; return-adverbs.
PEN-PAL: Tennis seems to offer humans a personality for colored-glass smilies.
ME: Bound-Romanticism (for coins!).



ME: I'm driving around France during the Summer Games in a rented auto.
PEN-PAL: Thinking of how tennis offers charms/storylines for the human face?
ME: Why not...for a bureaucracy-reading in heaven?
PEN-PAL: I wonder what it's like to be down 0-2 sets to return for laurel!
ME: Certainly a machinery-Earth view for what's sportsmanship's poem.
