Action Jackson!

Yesterday we went out to watch Liz's brother Matt play a little Tennis! He plays for Timpview and is truly amazing to watch. It was fun even though the match only lasted about 30 minutes or so. It was an easy win for Matt. Needless to say he would have had better competition playing me, and I only play a few times a year. Ok, so the poor kid he played was really nice and he never quit fighting! It was really fun though and we were able to snap off a few pictures of Matt in action.

I Swear he probably serves this ball at about 100 mph. Its crazy to think that some people can actually return serves like that. Needless to say that after watching the poor guy he played I have a new respect for the pros that can return serves that they can't even see.

This shot was just after the previous one and you can actually see how far the ball moved in about 1/5 of a second!

I love how Liz was able to almost totally freeze the ball in this shot.

You could probably about read Wilson on the ball.

As you can tell from this shot Matt's opponent is out of focus, this is mostly due to the fact that he was shaking in fear from the rapidly approacing ball! This gives a whole new perspective to the movie BALLS OF FURY!
