English: "Yamada-san golfs, but doesn't do tennis."

Notes: Bit tricky, but the nuance here is a compare-contrast situation. When making strong comparisons like this we want to use は the second time as it gives more emphasis about the facts of the second sentence. It's not an observation of "he golfs and doesn't do tennis" but more of a statement of "he golfs but doesn't even do tennis."
