I used to play tennis in a club called fairplay in Sweden from when I was 7-12y/o. For some reason I stopped tennis (guess i lost interest?) and started playing badminton instead. Transitioning from tennis > badminton was a piece of cake. I had a strong backhand and I'm also left-handed so slight adv against most. I played badminton for a good 5 years before quitting that but learned alot of things along the way.

I'm now 22 years old and haven't played serious rackquet sports in maybe 7 years or so but I feel like I have tennis remember'd in my spinal cord.. I really want to make a comeback at it and give it my all

Is it too late?

22 isn't even close to being considered physically prime for any sports, if that's what you're getting at.


Also holy fuck your reply was quick
