The former tennis star of Kalamazoo failed to make it past the 1st round at the 1K Men’s Championships in Williamsville, NY. Johnson made 23 unforced errors and hit just 5 winners. He doubled faulted the 1st set and went down a break to 2-0 then held serve. His opponent was hall of fame Dirk D was the oldest player in the tournament at 70 years old.

Without a coach or match play Johnson looks to the drawing board for answers. “I clearly didn’t play well and was exhausted after driving 6 hours to Williamsville from NYC.. I was also in the hospital the day before.”
