Okay, I basically started watching tennis from Wimbledon 2005.
I've always wanted to learn how to play tennis but lets just say that due to circumstan ces, I couldn't.
I'm 20 years old, female, height's around 5'8" and I weigh 200 lbs.
Huge, yeah, I know.
The thing is, do you think I COULD play tennis?
My problem is I'm really shy of going out onto a court, and I think I'd look awful playing. On the other hand, its a dream to learn how to hit a ball with a racquet, and I dont want to be awfully good, just want to learn how to play.

Plus, I need a cheap racquet to start off with, because my uni's starting and once that starts, I'm kind of wrapped up in studies. Yeah, I'm the geeky sort.
I'm from Pakistan *and no, thats not a synonym for terrorist or suicide bomber*, so any ideas how much a racquet could cost me? Or if I could get a hand-me-down?

Thanks.

I mean look at the rankings if she have at least reached the semis there she could've been the world no. 1 even before the tour championships. She is only 15 points behind Mauresmo and 59 points ahead of Justine.

CURRENT RANKINGS:
1. Mauresmo-3547 pts.
2. Sharapova-3532 pts.
3. Henin-3473 pts.

Why do all the tennis tournaments have to have the same structure? - each loser is eliminated ... round of 32 .. round of 16 ... QFs ... SFs... F & the top seeds are kept apart - I can think of quite a few sensible alternatives that could give the game some new life.

As Maria Sharapova said, every time she walks into the center court, she gets assulted & sexually harrased by Sickos who scream all kind of sexuall absenety, marriage proposals, love declarations, offers for dates by horny guys & even girls.
Is the world gone mad or the quality of tennis fans turned into huligans, sexually obsesed & lesbians & not anymore like the good old days?
I agree with Sharapova ! Now a days tennis fan quality does not exsists & as i watch the game, i can't help but watch how many mentaly & sexually sicko fans are among the spectators who came to take a snap shot of her bending over, rather than watch that beautifull sport.

I tried beating here with my fore hand stroke, but I can't even get one tennis ball past her. My back hand stroke gets by her every time. We battled it out, it was 15/love, and I was losing by a mile, I pulled out the old back hand, and now she respects me. Is it wrong to back hand my wife until she respects me?

I would vote for Justine as in the final against sharapova, but Justine will win. The rest of the players, Dementiava, Petrova, Kim, Hinges, Maresmo & Kutnatsova, have no champion quality or the nerve to finish the match & the fear of victory dominate them in important matches or against Sharapova. Right now ONLY 2 players have all the qualities ,Justine & Maria !!!
