Oscar Wegner

I've been reading a lot about Oscar Wegner and his MTM (Modern Tennis Method) on the Tennis Warehouse Forums
Unfortunately, there seems to be a lot of hostility directed toward him by a few of the forum members. It has gotten pretty personal and I don't like the way the conversations always seem to evolve and degenerate into personal attacks, mostly against Oscar and his fellow MTM instructors and students.
I am going to send an invitation to Oscar and his fellow instructors and students to participate in this thread and forum. This way they can voice their opinions in a civil and open environment. There are some aspects of MTM that I like and agree with, there are some aspects that I don't agree with as well. BUT, I am open minded and i have always been civil and respectful toward Oscar, his students, and instructors.
This is an OPEN invitation for Oscar and his friends to come here and promote their product and methods.


Here is Oscar's book; Tennis in 2 Hours
This is the 1989 version that he provided in the Tennis Warehouse Forums .
There are more recent versions as well that can be found here along with his DVDs. Read the book and check out his website, then judge for yourself. If you have any questions, please post them here.

A Letter To Tiger Woods

In light of the recent revelations about Tiger Woods, an athlete whom I admired, I like to extend my prayers and good wishes to Tiger and his family. Hopefully they can work things out and keep their marriage and family intact. Hopefully the vultures in and out of the media can now back off and let them settle this very serious situation in privacy. Imagine how his poor wife must feel when she turns on the television and radio and hears this circus.
Let he or she without sin cast the first stone.

Good luck and good wishes Tiger and Family
