Il Tennista Borrowing from Luck Krill + Bauer, my consulting boutique, is doing great. New clients, exciting projects, and the feeling that a new professional chapter istaking shape. That’s the good news. The catch is that my tennis... 15 apr 2026
Il Tennista Tennis and the mirror It was a bad match. And there I was afterward, driving home with my bag beside me, feeling far worse than the score should have justified. Which is always a little absurd, if you think about it. You g... 14 apr 2026
Il Tennista Starting Over (Again) in 2026 Here we go again. 2026 has just begun, and I find myself once more at the starting line after a big, necessary pause. Funny how finishing the 2025 season didn’t feel like a wrap, but more like a reset... 23 gen 2026
Il Tennista The season is over. What a season! Let’s get started from the end. If I had to shout one thing to summarize everything I’ve been through this year, it would be: What a season! Back in January, I kicked things off as a 4.1. Now, as the ... 24 nov 2025
Il Tennista Out of Silence, onto the court again. It took me more than a month to sit down and write this post. Why? Well… because it was a painful stretch. Four matches. Three losses. One win that felt more like a lucky escape than a real triumph. N... 28 ott 2025
Il Tennista 120 Points away from 3.1 There’s this feeling. You’re up 6–3, 5–3. You’re serving for the match. And suddenly, everything feels… heavy. The ball. The racket. Your legs. Your breath. You tell yourself it’s just another game. Y... 2 set 2025
Il Tennista Tavernola, again: La Cuarta… Peor. There’s a saying in Spanish: La tercera es la vencida. Third time’s the charm. Well… not this time. Not even close. Tavernola again. And again, second round exit. This place is starting to feel like o... 31 ago 2025
Il Tennista The Power of Showing Up Climbing the rankings so quickly has created a bit of surprise around me. Honestly, on paper, it looks very simple . In the real world? Not so much. If I had to explain it to myself like teaching a le... 18 ago 2025
Il Tennista Quid Pro Quo Olginate. A tiny club tucked between the hills and the lake, with quick courts that feel like they demand answers you’re not always ready to give. Another tournament, another step. And yet, this one s... 14 ago 2025
Il Tennista The Curse of Tavernola (Or Maybe Just a Reminder in Disguise) Tavernola… oh, Tavernola. There’s something about that place that doesn’t sit well with my tennis. Maybe it's the highway, maybe the shadows on the court, or maybe it’s just la maldición de Tavernola ... 20 lug 2025
Il Tennista No Preparation with Earned Luck. Oggiono tournment gave me the 3.2. Ironically… not bad at all, considering how little care I gave to this tournament. No special prep. No plan. No sharp focus. Just a name on the draw and a heart that... 25 giu 2025
Il Tennista Father and Son and the Art of Losing There’s a certain kind of match that doesn’t just end when the last ball is struck. It lingers. It echoes. It becomes something more than just a result on a drawsheet. Yesterday, I had one of those ma... 22 mag 2025
