			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a class="thickbox" title="Australian Tennis Open" href="http://www.australianopen4u.com/wp-content/gallery/australian-open-stadium/australian-tennis-open.jpg"><img class="ngg-singlepic ngg-left" src="http://www.australianopen4u.com/wp-content/gallery/australian-open-stadium/australian-tennis-open.jpg" alt="Australian Tennis Open" /></a>Tennis Australia is the organization responsible for promoting, encouraging, marketing and enjoying tennis throughout Australia. Its mission statement says all that needs to be said, &#8216;To make Australia the greatest tennis nation on the planet!&#8217;</p>
<p><a title="Australian open tennis" href="http://www.australianopen4u.com" target="_blank">Australian open tennis</a> lists a number of interesting tennis statements, here&#8217;s a selection of them that have so much meaning in their simplicity and perspective.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a game and a passion.<br />
It&#8217;s an hour of fun and a lifetime commitment.<br />
It&#8217;s a six year old at primary school or his Grandmother at a ladies tea.<br />
It&#8217;s a pennant player working on his ITN rating, and four mates slugging it out for bragging rights.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a manicured grass court or lines scratched on a beach.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a novice hitting a ball against a wall or a century of Aussie legends battling for the Davis Cup.<br />
It&#8217;s competing for your club championship, striving for the State title, and dreaming of the Australian Open.<br />
It&#8217;s keeping fit with Tennis Workout and pushing barriers in wheelchair tennis.<br />
It&#8217;s social and it&#8217;s deadly serious.<br />
It&#8217;s indoor and outdoor.<br />
It&#8217;s in the schools and on the streets.<br />
It&#8217;s boys and girls, and it&#8217;s men and women.<br />
It&#8217;s all ages, all races, all people everywhere.<br />
It&#8217;s just around the corner, and it&#8217;s all around the world.<br />
It&#8217;s cosmopolitan and as Australian as Vegemite.<br />
It&#8217;s in our blood, our history, our culture and our hearts.<br />
It&#8217;s everybody&#8217;s sport.<br />
It&#8217;s you and me and everyone we know.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a tradition we pass on to our sons and daughters, who pick up rackets from the time they can walk, bringing forth a new generation of Lavers and Rafters, Courts and Goolagongs.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s made for a sunburnt country, a sport we love so much we play it anywhere and everywhere, in the suburbs, in the bush, in the outback, and even on the rooftops of hotels.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s <a title="Australian open 2008" href="http://www.australianopen4u.com/australian-open-2008" target="_blank">Australian open 2008</a> offering the Aussie Open experience all year round, and it&#8217;s Aussie Open Academies lifting standards across Asia/Pacific.<br />
It&#8217;s Tennis, Australia&#8217;s favourite.</p>
<p>Tennis Australia is spreading the tennis buzz, bring the love of tennis to every community, to have more people playing more tennis more often.</p>
