Despite never having played tennis before, binge watching highlights of Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz somehow convinces me I can steal a few shot ideas for pickleball rallies.

Obviously I’m nowhere near Sinner’s level, not even remotely close, but for this one rally, one shot, let me just enjoy my little Jannik Dinner moment over here.

... Read moreAlthough I’m new to racket sports, watching top players like Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz has surprisingly helped me pick up some basic shot ideas for pickleball. It’s amazing how their swift movements and shot choices can translate, even if the sports differ. One thing I realized is that pickleball, while more accessible, still benefits from understanding the rhythm and spin control seen in tennis. Adopting Sinner’s patience and strategic positioning during rallies helped me avoid rushing shots in my own games. Also, the amusing "Jannik Dinner Moment" hashtag perfectly captures those small but proud achievements that come when you try something new and nail it unexpectedly. Sharing moments like this in the #pickleballsg and #racketlife communities boosts motivation and connects newcomers with seasoned players. If you’re curious about trying pickleball or simply want to appreciate tennis highlights in a new light, I encourage you to watch some matches and see what shots or tactics you can borrow. Even as a beginner, these crossovers make sports more fun and engaging.

I resigned
I used to enjoy working, I don’t quite know how to describe it but it was just fun spending time with colleagues, celebrating and struggling together. I enjoyed having the financial freedom to buy whatever I liked when I wanted to. I never thought I would be leaving my first full-time job so soon.
