Lawn Tennis

I have been a professional lawn tennis player since my school days. I have participated in various lawn tennis tournaments organized at school, college, state and national level.

More than sports, Lawn tennis is like a meditation for me. I feel relaxed, energized and motivated after having a good tennis session with my friends and other players. It also taught me how to be a team player, how to change your positioning based on the situation as sometimes you have to lead from front and sometimes you have to follow and support your partner. I continue to implement my learnings from the lawn-tennis in my day-to-day working till date.
