Robin Biae, 12, has only been playing tennis for two months but he’s already improved so much, making him the perfect candidate for this week’s athlete of the week.

“I like that it’s a very competitive game,” said Biae, explaining why he picked up tennis.

He said he also swims, skis and snowboards, which keeps him very busy. But tennis is sure to be his new favourite pastime.
