Well - been pretty quite last week but there's something that's been on my mind.
See, my trainer told me he thinks I should try out for the Olympics. I'm fit, good at Tennis and the right age and have the time right now. Who knows how things will be in 2012. Plus it's not that far - I mean China is a hell of a lot closer than London will be.
So I've been thinking about it - and I was pretty close to saying I was going to go and try out for it at least when I saw
THIS about what is happening in Tibet and it made me realize that there's much more at stake here than just my own ambitions.
China is a country where human rights only exist on paper, where a cultural genocide is happening right before our eyes and I can not with my consience in tact overlook all that and take any part in the Olympics.
I know some of you guys went to the trials as well and I would like to ask you to think about what you are doing. The olympics are going to come again in four years - it's not that long but if we all show that we do not agree with what is happening in china we might achieve something much more worthwhile than any medal. It's the chance to do something for the good of all people not just yourself so I hope you'll agree with me and boycott these games that are held in a country that opposes everything the games are supposed to stand for.
