Steven Hake, MD

Habitat: Alright, Steve. Let's get right to it. You are a doctor, right?

Steve: Yes. A radiologist.

Habitat: That must work with your playing style. Just in case you break something on an opponent.

Steve: (Laughs) No. That hasn't happened...yet.

Habitat: How long have you been playing?

Steve: 5 years. Recreational, not competitive.

Habitat: What do you like better, singles or doubles?

Steve: Both for different reasons. Singles because you control your own destiny. Doubles because I like the netplay and the speed.

Habitat: You are a true tennis renaissance man. What's your favorite shot?

Steve: Forehand, definitely. I do most of my damage with that shot.

Habitat: Literally or figuratively speaking?

Steve: (Blank look) Next question.

Habitat: Uh..OK. What improvement is needed in recreational tennis?

Steve: More courts. No question. Development is making more courts disappear every year.

Habitat: 1 final question. What is a good tennis day for Dr. Steve?

Steve: Winning a few points against the young bucks. That makes it all worth it.

Habitat: Thanks, Steve.
