USPTA Head Pro: Susan Torrance has been here over 20 years and has continued in her mother's footsteps as the driving force of the tennis center and has always promoted a FULL THIRD SET.

*****At Al Kruse Tennis Center, we are the ONLY tennis facility in the Corpus Christi area that will allow our players to play a full third set in leiu of a 10-point tiebreaker. This applies for ANY match played on our tennis courts. Both parties must agree and the ONLY ones allowed to make the decision are the players involved in the match. Match scores are converted using our formula and reported accordingly on official match score cards.*****

At Al Kruse Tennis Center, we believe on playing MORE tennis for your money. We believe in keeping the game in the hands of the players.
