From Pas De Deux To Serve And Volley For Wimbledon Hopeful Jan Choinski
German-born British tennis player Jan Choinski makes his Wimbledon debut on Monday, hoping skills picked up as a ballet dancer will help him pirouette into the second round. "It will be a totally new experience for me. I cannot be more thankful," said the 27-year-old journeyman who has taken an unusual route to tennis's most prestigious event. Both his parents were professional ballet dancers. His mother Dominique was born in Singapore, the daughter of a naval officer, before she moved to live in Southampton on the English south coast.
