There is a song by the Beatles called “All the Lonely People.” And in that song is a line that says, “All the lonely people, where do they all come from.” Switch out ‘lonely people’ for ‘tennis players’ and ask that question again.

You know, sometimes you can just pick out people who love a certain sport. For instance, those who love football. Actually, that’s a bad example.
