Should I put pressure on my son to do sports?

Well, growing up it was always my dream to be a world famous tennis player, unfortunately I wasn't dedicated enough. My son Alex (close to turning 10) doesn't seem too into sports. Lately I've been taking him to the tennis courts and teaching him some techniques of the "Old Man". I've also been taking him to my gym and showing him how to properly bench press (only let him do about 60 pounds). I really want to make him into a tennis legend but I'm not sure he understands how important tennis needs to be in his life. I'd like to eventually practice tennis with my son for a couple hours each day and work out at the gym everyday too. How should I persuade him that tennis could be a HUGE part of his life someday? Thanks, -Jim
