Alright, so you wanna know about this Amandine Hesse, huh? Well, lemme tell ya what I know, or what I heard anyways. They say she’s a tennis player, from France I think. Yeah, France, that’s right. You know, where they eat them fancy snails and all that.
This girl, Amandine, she plays tennis. You know, that game with the rackets and the fuzzy balls? They whack it back and forth over a net. Seems like a lot of runnin’ around to me, but hey, if that’s what she likes, good for her. I heard tell she was born in 1993, which makes her… well, let’s just say she ain’t no spring chicken no more. But she’s still out there hittin’ them balls, so she must be pretty good, right?

Now, I ain’t never seen her play myself, mind you. I mostly just watch the birds fight over breadcrumbs in my yard, but I hear things, you know? People talk. They say she’s won some matches and lost some too. That’s just how it goes, I reckon. Can’t win ’em all, can ya?
- They got this thing called the ITF, and she plays in them tournaments.
- Sometimes she wins, sometimes she loses. Just like life, ain’t it?
- And they got these scores, like 6-3, 4-6, stuff like that. I dunno what it all means, but it sounds like she puts up a good fight.
I heard somewhere that she beat some Italian girl, Stefanini, I think her name was. Six to three, and then four to six. See? She wins some, she loses some. And then there’s this “Flashscore” thing. I guess it tells you all about her matches, point by point, they say. Sounds complicated to me. I prefer watchin’ the chickens peck at the ground myself. Much easier to understand.
They also say she’s from France, and that people can find her “profile” somewhere. I ain’t got no “profile,” I got a face, and that’s about it. But these young folks, they got “profiles” all over the place. On the internet, they say. I don’t mess with that internet stuff. Too much jibber jabber for me.
Now, about this tennis game itself. I heard it started way back when, in England. Some fancy folks in fancy clothes hittin’ balls around on a lawn. They called it “lawn tennis” then, but now they just call it tennis. And there’s this group called the WTA, for the women players. They got all organized, I guess. Good for them, I say. It’s always good to be organized, even if you’re just organizin’ your sock drawer.
And then there’s this other fella, Ivan Lendl. They say he was a real good player, one of the best ever. Ranked number one for a long time, won a bunch of titles. I never heard of him, but I guess he was a big deal. And another one, Rosewall, they called him. Had a good backhand, they say. Played for a long time, too. These tennis folks, they seem to last a while, huh?

So, that’s about all I know about this Amandine Hesse and this tennis thing. She plays, she wins some, she loses some. She’s from France. People can find her “profile” on the internet if they want to know more. Me? I’m gonna go back to watchin’ them birds. At least I understand what they’re doin’. Squawkin’ and fightin’ over crumbs. Just like life, ain’t it?
