As the UK's premier tennis tournament approaches and sports fans cross their fingers for Andy Murray, one writer has explained how he improved his own tennis skills on holiday, which may inspire travellers to book cheap flights to Palma.
Tony Kelly travelled to a tennis academy near Palma on the island of Mallorca - where Boris Becker and Steffi Graf have both trained - with his 13-year-old son, who he discovered was very skilful when it came to the sport.
In an article for the Times, he stated that the clay surface of the Spanish tennis courts helped him think out his shots during long rallies.
However, when it came to playing his son, Mr Kelly stated: "I knew that I was getting better, yet whenever I played Adam in the afternoon he seemed to be getting better even faster."
Travellers looking for a sporting break this summer may wish to book cheap flights to Palma.
In addition to tennis, the Times states that there are plenty of hikes and walks on offer that allow holidaymakers to discover the lesser travelled parts of Mallorca.
