During his battle with AIDS, from the world over, Arthur Ashe received letters from his
fans, one of which asked: "Why does God have to select you for such a bad disease"?
To this Arthur Ashe replied: The world over -- 50,000,000 children start playing tennis,
5,000,000 learn to play tennis, 500,000 learn professional tennis, 50,000 come to the circuit,
5,000 reach the grand slam, 50 reach Wimbledon, 4 to the semi-finals, 2 to the finals, When I
was holding a cup I never asked God "Why me?" And today in pain I should not be asking God,
"Why me?"
