About This Quote

In the world of tennis, there are many pros who can be described as a team. In fact, many tennis players count themselves as a part of the Tomic Family. However, a team is a group of people with a common goal and a similar set of values. The Smithies were not a family in the traditional sense.

They were a group of people who found friendship and mutual support in their chosen sport. They shared many things in common, including their passion for tennis. But they also shared something else: no one was ever truly an outsider.
