We had a fantastic training block and tournament for the Clay Court Nationals this year. Karthik Thumu and Vedansh Pande both put in the work to prepare and dial in their games on the clay with us at Pure Pace Tennis Academy here in Dade City before heading to Palm Beach for the tournament. Playing at some of the nicest clubs in the world against the best players in the country was a fantastic experience for everyone. Congratulations to Karthik for reaching the round of 32 out of over 200 players and splitting sets with Michael Chervenkov, the fourth highest-rated 14-year-old in the world. Both Karthik and Vedansh learned a lot, developed their games, and are ready to reach their next level during their junior year of high school.
