Cross-court with Aisam Qureshi

Aisam Qureshi Published May 11, 2010

Hello again!

I would like to thank everyone for the encouraging comments on my first blog. Honestly, I did not expect such an overwhelming response and it sure is nice to know that Pakistanis are not fond of cricket alone!

Although I had planned on writing just before the French Open, I just had to share something with you guys. For the first time in my career, I have been able to reach the top 50 mark in the ATP world rankings. My previous best was 51. Once again, I want to thank you all for the support and prayers you have been giving me through out my career.

I am currently in Bordeaux, France – my last tournament before the French Open. So far I have been to Rome, Casablanca, Napoli, Tunis, Barcelona and Estroil on this trip. Despite being on the ATP tour for 12 years, I had never been to all these amazing cities and I guess it has everything to do with me playing on clay courts this season!

Now for some of the questions you guys asked in my last blog.

Best option for tennis training in Pakistan

I think Karachi's Modern Club is by far the best place to learn tennis at. Pakistan's top player Aqeel Khan and his siblings Yasir and Jaleel were all groomed at Modern Club and I am sure it would be the best place for kids to start playing tennis.

Plans for opening tennis academy

I have definite plans of building an academy in Lahore in the near future. I feel it is my duty to give something back to the country. I have asked the government for some land in Lahore and am hopeful of an approval soon, so I can start working on the plan. Even now, every time I am back home, I train with the juniors so that I can teach them whatever I have learned in my career. I want to make sure that they don't make the same mistakes that I made when I was a junior.

I will write more after the French Open now...keeping fingers crossed to make an impression at Rolland Garros this time 'round!

Some questions 1- Is Roger Federer greatest in your book? 2- How did you find Federer as a human being? Any stories you've heard from others? 3- If you had to start from scratch again, what mistakes you think you could have avoided to become even better player (you already are awesome!)? Cheers ;)

Dear Aisam, You are a hope for our country not only for holding Pakistan's flag high internationally but also sports diversity in Pakistan. Unfortunately, we in Pakistan are pursuing a game i.e. cricket which is not so popular abroad. Our media also gives projection to cricket and cricket strange. I wish we were champions in Tennis, Football, Golf etc. However, in tennis you appear to be a ray of hope in dark sports spectrum of our country. Please encourage more and more youth to come to Tennis as that is the formative stage. I pray perhaps your bringing to Pakistan of any grand slam may be a real starter. God give you new heights in future. That is prayer of every Pakistani.

There could not be a better role model than you, after Imran Khan in Cricket. Regrettably, he made the blunder of getting into dirty politics, he should get out of that even now.

Aisam, You are great inspiration for all young aspiring sportsmen and women in Pakistan. The fact that you have excelled in a field which gets very little mention or support in our country and having done so purely by your own determination, speaks volumes for what an individual can achieve by having a dream and the will-power to achieve it. I am an avid tennis player, although not at your level, and it gives me immense pride in telling everyone that you are a Pakistani and that we can produce great tennis players and not just Cricket or Hockey or Squash (although all of that seems to be in our past). So maybe our future is Tennis, more power to you. Best of luck at Roland Garros.

You were in Borduex, France. Then you were in Casablanca and soon you were all around the world. What is left in the excitement are the descriptions? How did you find the place for example a place called Bordeux? The place is famous for a reason all around the world. How was the landscape? The land, the air, the plants and so forth. Above all the cheese. If you hang around those places, with the possibilities of gaining weight, you may want to forget playing and with additional weight, consider devoting time writing and in becoming a Balzac or a Flaubert. You do show potentials.

Hello, First of all Congrats Aisam on your achievement on reaching top 50. May ALLAH help us all in our progression towards betterment of Pakistan. Ameen. Yes I agree that Pakistani people are cricket crazy but when any team/players from Pakistan are competing at national/international stage people would support them. It is really nice to know that you plan to open up an academy in Lahore for tennis. I wish that players like Jahangir Khan, Jansher Khan, Shahbaz Senior, Samiullah, Hasan Sardar and Imran Khan open their academies as well. Because seeing the current debacle of Pakistan in cricket, hockey and squash we need the legends to come in and support the sports infrastructure in Pakistan. Being a to-be post graduate of Sport Management, I don't know how I can get into the sports infrastructure in Pakistan. If we have such academies there, this provides a chance for people with expertise in sports development and a true passion for sports to work with legends to earn back the sporting pride for Pakistan. Cricket get the lion's share into the sponsorships and funding, there is a need to set up a centralized setup for sponsorships for sport organizations in Pakistan, so that the funding and the earned money could be channelized into different sports development programs for different sports. Aisam, have you ever played in Australia Open? Secondly, is there any sponsorship that you have currently or are you supporting your venture yourself. Thanks and good luck Aisha Jalil

It's great that you have the future of Pakistani tennis in your radar. Your experiences on the world tennis curcuit would give invaluable insight to up and coming Pakistani players. Moreover, we need to encourage tennis at the grass roots. I am confident your support augurs well for the development of world class tennis in Pakistan. Historically, Pakistanis have excelled in racquet sports despite very little official patronage. Your success is a catalyst for positive change. I am sure that Pakistanis would contribute generously to your noble cause of creating a world class tennis academy to Pakistan. You are in all of our prayers. Pakistan Zindabad!

You have single handedly revived the sport in Pakistan and your plan to build an academy is icing on cake. Please do not back down even if useless authorities discourage you. I am confident that your academy will produce world class players one day, don't forget to seek media's help to promote your academy (i am sure they will gladly do that).

From Pindi Gheb, Hi Aisam Bhai! no luck against Philip and Igor. Match stats show that double faults from you guys and aces against you guys were major reason. First set was not good but you guys fought hard in second set. Just 10 days to go for Wimbledon, after long clay season you guys need to adapt on grass as soon as possible. You have to save 205 points. And tell us that will you play single's qualifier in Wimbledon. Always praying for your success. Allah Hafiz.
