Smash, smash, smash. Roger Federer won the first set 6-3 as
Grigior Dimitrov smashed his racquet on the hard blue court.
Roger Federer was glad he won the first set 6 - 3 because that
meant he was out of the danger zone.
And he would be able to play with a kidwith the lucky person
with the right ticket number. The man in a very slick black suit
walked onto court and called out the number he said " ladies and
gentlemen get out your tickets because I will call out the number.
The lucky winner is 48873212" "Me! ÑI won!" "Well come
down here kid." When the kid got to the bottom the man in the
black suit asked "what is your name kid?" "Elijah Cowen" "Alright
Jesse your going to have a game with Roger Federer" " okay but i
don't have a racquet." Roger Federer ran to his bag and got Elijah a
racquet.
The man with the microphone said " lets get this game started"
Elijah walked to his side of the court and he threw the ball high
in the air anxiously watching it as he hit the hit the ball smash,
smash, smash Jesse won the point it was 15-00 it was Roger
Federer's turn to serve he threw the ball high in the air just like
Elijah did and smashed the ball a bit harder than Elijah`s hit but
Elijah smashed it back and won the point it was 30-00
Elijah`s parents were shouting out as loud as they could because
Jesse was winning Elijah served the ball Roger was ready to
receive the ball as his eye furiously watched the ball. Elijah hit
the ball very fast almost faster than LIGHTNING smash Roger
hit it back but Elijah hit it even harder than last time so Roger
couldn't get his racquet and Elijah was up 40-00 and he was
serving for the game Grigior Dimitrov was so surprised that his
mouth was almost dribbling Elijah served the ball it just hit the T
and it was an ace YES Elijah shouted as his dream just came true
and he fell to the ground almost crying thinking what the heak
just happened.
The End !
