PGA's Tennis Elder Statesman Elliot Gerlach
Contributed by: D Matthews on 3/14/2009

Looking for a lesson in humility and tennis?

Then, allow me to introduce you to PGA's Tennis Elder Statesman, Elliott Gerlach.

Elliott, a young, spry octogenarian is the master of the "slice and dice" , and he never holds back on "serving" up his own brand tennis diplomacy.

Hailed as " King of the Drop" and " Lord of the Spin", Elliott is a true inspiration and pleasure to play with or against.

But, most prefer to play with him.

He brings flavor, fun and "game" to the weekly Coffee Mixers held Monday, Wednesday and Friday at the PGA from 8 am to 10 am, and his smile and seasoned sense of humor are ever present at the monthly themed " Hit and Giggle" Saturday Tennis Socials.

An avid New York Giants fan, Elliott's favorite line is " You'll get old someday" , as he holds "Court" at the PGA.

And to that, we can only say, we hope so Elliot..." we hope so".

Come on by the PGA Tennis Courts and meet "our" Elder Statesman - Elliot Gerlach.

PGA Country Club Tennis Facility is located at 951 SW Country Club Dr in Port Saint Lucie.

For more information on our tennis programs, call John Koahou, Director of Tennis at 772-340-1472.
