Stuart Buttrick '97 Gets Tennis Tips from Mats Wilander

August 1, 2012

Mats Wilander, formerly the world's #1 men's tennis player, offered a clinic in Carmel, Indiana, last week, and one of those on hand was a 1997 DePauw University graduate. "Stuart Buttrick, a 37-year-old Carmel resident who played tennis at DePauw, described that opportunity to rub tennis elbows as a once-in-a-lifetime experience," reports the Indianapolis Star.

"Mats was my idol as a kid," Buttrick tells the newspaper. "I've been looking forward to this since last year when Mats was kind enough to agree to come out here. I'm pooped but I learned lots of stuff and am the better player for it. You'd never know Mats is a seven-time Grand Slam (singles) winner, he's as personable as your next-door neighbor."
