Re: Tennis Random, Random (On Court)
My own personal study reveals that tennis fans are frustrated and annoyed by the constant, repetitive noises (often collectively referred to as 'grunting') which comes out of the mouths of certain tennis players.
There's a big difference between exhaling and grunting.
There's a HUGE difference between exhaling and screaming.

Re: Tennis Random, Random (On Court)
Martina Trevisan has a little notebook (a little PHYSICAL, real notebook) with her in which she has notes about her game.
I DO TOO! I have notes about my strokes in there, and how to correct them![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif)
Love at ... some sight.
Nah, don't love her, but it is something I recommend. Keep a little book with how to hit your strokes well.

Martina is gearing up for her favorite part of the season. Earlier than expected this year.

Watched a little of that match. How come there is nobody in the world that can tell Alona: "Hit it just a LITTLE bit softer. Just a little".
She was spraying the ball all over.

Re: Tennis Random, Random (On Court)
You must be talking about another Alona. The Alona who plays tennis wouldn't pay the slightest bit of attention to someone, anyone, making a suggestion that she hit the ball softer.

Maxime Cressy has a (physical) notebook that he looks at on changeovers, as well.ponchi101 wrote: ↑Mon Mar 27, 2023 3:52 pm Martina Trevisan has a little notebook (a little PHYSICAL, real notebook) with her in which she has notes about her game.

I think his is more about his opponents than about his own strokes, though.

Interesting about Murray signing with IMG, gotta think he has something notable planned for the future.

Re: Tennis Random, Random (On Court)
I felt the same. He truly needs no profile boosts, and IMG is very much the big retailer, not a boutique.
I felt he could have gone with Roger or Naomi, and made it more interesting.

Re: Tennis Random, Random (On Court)
I have said it: Sampras would slice him wide on every serve, and volley to the open court. Medvedev would have to modify his return position by several meters.

Re: Tennis Random, Random (On Court)
So it seems that a player has taken it upon themselves to provide WTA entry lists in PDF form on another site. SMH

Re: Tennis Random, Random (On Court)
Medvedev would win easily.
Sampras is well past his prime.
