Ever seen four spaniards with a tennis ball, on a tennis court, playing that freaky mixture of football and tennis? Not good enough for you?
Andre Agassi once went to a batting cage in Cincy. He started hitting balls and asked for the machine to be put on a higher speed. Soon, he asked it to be put at maximum. The operator told him the machine could reach 95MPH. Maximum, he said. He kept hitting line drives, getting to the point that he started taking running starts when the machine was throwing.
Almost an identical story was told about Aaron Krickstein. Mardy Fish, of course, is famous for hitting a home run at Three River Stadium.
Sports I believe Gael would excel at: basketball (obvious), football (wide receiver/cornerback), track and field (high jump/long jump), swimming.
Rafa and Nole going 6 hours at that Aussie final. Hitting winners late in the fifth.
I would say that the majority of ATP players could complete a marathon with minimal extra training.
We do have some really good athletes. I remain convinced: the best athletes in the world, if you include skills and athleticism, are the guys in the NBA, and the guys in the ATP.
No need for examples from the WTA because we agree.
