With a hop, skip and a jump – along with a wide array of winning shots – Jack Kennedy of Huntington, N.Y., was part of two USTA Boys 14s National Clay Court Championships victories at the Westgate Tennis Center in…
Kennedy won the singles title by defeating Gus Grumet of Mills Valley, Calif., 6-2, 6-4 and then teamed with Sebastian Bielen of Glen Cove, N.Y., to win the doubles championship by beating Yannik Alvarez of Cumming, Ga., and Ryan Cozad of Alpharetta, Ga., 6-3, 6-3.
“It’s a very big accomplishment for me and my team and my family,” Kennedy said. “This was a goal of mine to achieve and I finally did it.” It was the first ever meeting between the two singles finalists on Sunday and it took a while for Kennedy to feel comfortable against the steady play of Grumet, a mild-mannered competitor who was awarded the sportsmanship award for the tournament.
“The drop shot is very effective to bring the person forward, especially if it’s going well,” Kennedy said. Though Kennedy had played in a tournament in Alabama in the past, it was his first trip to Dothan and he came away impressed. “We’ve been planning for this about six months and it’s just incredible to see it all happen,” said Aaron McCreight, the CEO of Visit Dothan. “I think we’ve done a pretty good job of dancing around the rain drops and getting this thing in. To be on schedule after the week we’ve had was pretty incredible.”
