If it's true that the third time's a charm, American doubles star Rajeev Ram and a cadre of coaches, instructors, and volunteers hit all the lines with the third annual tennis clinics for young players in Indiana, his home state, put on by his nonprofit organization, EntouRaj for Kids.
After a warmup with a fitness trainer in the opening clinic, 50-odd players of various skill levels participated on courts that focused on groundstroke drills, doubles points, speed and athleticism, and more. The event wrapped with an extended Q&A session with Ram, ranked a career-high No. 9 in ATP doubles just prior to this community-building event.
