TENNIS

 TODAY is just another boring day. Nothing special. However, it is very special for Canada because after 109 years finally the world's most coveted DAVIS CUP had been granted to the most talented, skilled tennis athletes TEAM CANADA for this generation (2022 in Malaga, Spain) : Felix Auger Aliassime, Denis Shapovalov, Vasek Pospisil, under the Team captain Dancevic. It's a huge win for Canada actually.

Americans and Australian had won Davis Cup so many times. Australia won Davis Cup for 28th times. This is first for Canada! THE VERY FIRST. Canada won so many STANLEY CUP but DAVIS CUP is somewhat a symbol of hmm...what's its symbolized and for what? Ha ha! Jokers. lol. Dude, don't really know. I am not really a sports fanatic. It is only recently that I had laid eyes or lend my eyes on those tennis players and what kind of game they are playing. I watched it only out of curiosity.

One Hundred Nine Years. A century. More than a century. 

------------------------------- HUNDRED YEARS AGO -----

1900's is the end of the Spanish-American war. It was the year-era of Sigmund Freud's  book of Dreams and Interpretations. 1900 is the era of Industrialization. Modern technology seemed modern such as the invention of telephones, telegrams, film production equipment (for silent films), locomotives, even if horse-drawn carriages were still in abundance, automobiles were already being manufactured, tested and tried,  but they are slow and not too sporty. Steamed boats were already luxurious for travel and  it was only in 1912 that the most luxurious, largest ship sailed mighty on its first maiden voyage however disaster struck and failed when the Titanic had that catastrophic tragic end. 

So tell me what DAVIS CUP's as a symbol of what? Betty Davis? Could be the cup of the covenant? Cup of Davis for best tennis team of the world. Every year DAVIS CUP Championship is played and whoever wins then they are the best of the BEST in the world in the world of tennis.

That TENNIS the sports is now officially one of Canada's best sports ever aside from hockey, baseball and football. Why not? It's a highly-intelligent game.
