4-Year Old Prodigy Takes Tennis Community by Storm,(Four-Year-Old Tennis Ace Gets Served)

Look out, Williams sisters, there's a new kid on the courts, and she's got room to grow. Little Mia Lines is only four years old but she's already tearing up the baselines and getting instruction from a coach who's guided legendary names like Venus, Serena, Roddick, and Capriati.

The pint-sized phenom came to South Florida from Australia with her father to study under the illustrious Rick Macy, who thinks he's got a heavy hitter on his hands.

"I've never seen anybody with feet like this, and she has very good hand eye coordination for four, it's uncanny," Macy told WPTV. "This is the scariest little creature I've ever seen."

Macy has been training with Lines for a month at his tennis academy at Boca Lago and Mia's father Glenn says a future in tennis is his daughter's destiny.

"The first thing Mia ever saw coming out of her mother was a tennis ball. I used to wave the ball above her head and put ping pong paddles in her hand and work on her motion," said Glenn Lines.

The junior jock said she see no reason why she can't be one of the elite when she gets a little bigger.

"I'm gonna still play tennis," Mia said.

And what tournaments would she like to win?

"Wimbledon, Australian Open, French Open, US Open."

Macy said he doesn't know how high her star will shoot, but it's never bad to get an early start.

"I don't have a crystal ball, and I've been wrong too, but I know there's a place for this little kid on the pro tour, whether it's 50, 40, number 10 or winning grand slams," Macy said.

Father Glenn isn't pushing too hard, saying whatever his daughter does, she chooses her own path.

"At the end of the day, if she went professional I'd love that. If she won Wimbledon, I'd love that too, but she drives the bus."

@powercise You're jealous of a 4 year old.

[WBCGKL20]

Powercise have u ever seen any child play good tennis. All u seem to do is criticise any video featuring children playing tennis. U have also criticised jan silva and maya pitts. You seem to think u know so much about tennis who have u coached that has a world top 10 ranking. If u have any better videos than Mia, Maya or Jan please show us

[sam111297]

Poor kid! I mean yeah shes a great little player but is this her dream or her parents?!?! I no many ppl who have been forced to play by their parents from a young age and by the time they r 15 or so, they quit coz theyve had enough. Im not saying this will happen to her and i really hope it doesnt coz this kid is amazing. It would just b terrible to c this kid quit when she has soooo much to offer
