Well now, let me tell ya, there’s this fella, Scott Oudsema, and he’s been workin’ with the University of Michigan’s tennis team. He ain’t a full-time coach yet, no, he’s just helpin’ out as a volunteer assistant coach for their men’s tennis team. Ain’t that somethin’? But don’t let that fool ya, he knows his way around the tennis court, that’s for sure. He’s been around the tennis scene for years, and folks respect him, even if he’s not makin’ a big ol’ fuss about it.

Scott, now he’s from the USA, and I reckon he’s been playin’ tennis since he could walk. He’s what you call a doubles player, and at one time, he was sittin’ pretty with a career-high doubles rankin’ of No. 151. That’s a mighty fine rankin’, if you ask me, though I suppose not everybody’s gonna know what that means unless they’re deep in the world of tennis. But what I’m tryin’ to say is, Scott’s a talented man, and people in the sport know his name.
Now, Scott’s not just a tennis player. He’s done a lot for the sport, and folks been watchin’ him for a long time. He’s got a big ol’ history of playin’ professional tennis, and if you go searchin’ around, you’ll find all sorts of stats and match results. He’s played on all kinds of surfaces, so he’s no slouch when it comes to knowin’ how to handle himself no matter where the match is. And don’t even get me started on his match record. It’s a long one, and you can see how many points he’s racked up over the years. Lots of folks still keep track of his results and all that.
I reckon, too, that Scott’s one of them fellas who likes to stay connected with people. He’s even on Facebook! Now, I don’t know if he spends much time there, but it’s a place where folks can keep up with what he’s doin’, maybe even drop him a message if they want. Social media’s a big thing these days, ya know, and even tennis pros like Scott ain’t immune to it. So if you’re curious about what he’s up to these days, you can pop over to Facebook and take a look.
And let’s not forget, Scott’s got himself a strong tie to the tennis world, even when he’s not playin’ professionally. He’s been around for a long time, and people still come to him for advice, or just to see what he’s thinkin’ about the game. Even now, helpin’ out with the University of Michigan’s team, he’s givin’ them a little bit of that wisdom he’s picked up over the years. It’s good to have someone like Scott around, someone who’s been through the grind and knows how to help the younger folks out.
So, if you ever get the chance to watch him work, or if you get to see him on the courts, just know you’re watchin’ a man who’s been at it for a long time. He’s a seasoned player, coach, and just an all-around decent fella. I reckon, if you’ve got any interest in tennis, it wouldn’t hurt to keep an eye on Scott Oudsema. He’s got more to teach than just the game itself. He’s got life lessons wrapped up in those tennis matches, and I’m sure the young lads at Michigan are learnin’ a lot from him.
