Stan Smith Record at the Ojai
By Steve Pratt Fifty years ago this month, Stan Smith came to Ojai as a shy, 18-year-old USC freshman from Pasadena, the reigning national junior champion, and playing on one of tennis’ grandest stages, the final of the Men’s Open Division at the 66th annual Ojai Tennis Tournament. In a probably otherwise forgettable final for Smith, he was beaten by UCLA junior Charlie Pasarell, 6-3, 6-1, on that day in 1965 in just 38 minutes with Pasarell’s passing shots no match for the net-charging Smith. In the doubles final later in the day, the Los Angeles Times reported that Smith and Bob Lutz teamed up to exact some revenge against Pasarell and his UCLA teammate Joaquin Loyo-Mayo, winning the match, 2-6, 9-7, 8-6 in a division that debuted at The Ojai in the year 1900. It will be hard for Smith not to get nostalgic during the playing of the 115th edition of the venerable tournament known as one of the most storied anywhere within tennis circles. Smith is returning to The Ojai in April for the first time since he began his long and storied career all those years ago as the tournament’s honored guest in 2015. Smith will be the featured speaker at the Thursday night barbecue, as well as mingle with Ojai tennis fans at a special fundraising wine event hosted by the Ojai Vineyard Tasting Room on Friday night. A good friend of Weil Academy’s Mark Weil, Smith’s daughter once attended the Weil Academy and he paid a visit to Ojai while she was there a little over a decade ago. -

Peter Burwash
Hall of Fame Class of 2010 Peter Burwash Bringing tennis to the world is the legacy of Peter Burwash – as a player, coach, writer, motivational speaker and founder and owner of Peter Burwash International (PBI), which has brought tennis to millions of players. It all started after a neighbor tossed away her tennis racquet when Peter was 12-years-old in Canada, “There was a tournament at the tennis courts near me. The under-13’s only had three people and were looking for a fourth.” Without even knowing how the scoring worked Peter won the tournament. “I raced home on my bike to tell my mother, but she didn’t believe me and called the woman across the street and said, ‘I’m sorry but I think my son stole your trophy.” A truly fated moment, “My goal was to play professional hockey but life changes directions and it’s been a blessing,” Peter is one of the original members of the ATP and during his pro days earned 19 international singles and doubles titles. “In those days we went out for 48 straight weeks because you couldn’t afford to come home,” Peter explains, “It’s all thanks to Issy Sharp for giving me he $3,600 I needed for plane fare. It was very generous of him.” Peter is the former No. 1 player from Canada and was a regular participant on the Canadian Davis Cup Team. Success on the court continued after the pro tour, he earned the No. 1 ranking in Hawaii for three years and in 1985 a ranking of No. -
