Tennis Serve Technique
Funny habbits that tennis players have?
You might of noticed Jelena Dokic when she receives a serve she looks up and down really quickly and blows air out of her mouth. Which i find really strange. I wonder why she does it.
And Raffa (and a lot of other players) constantly pick their wedgies. I wonder why they don't buy undies with a better fit... they obviously aren't short of money.
Anyway, have you noticed any other players with habbits? Tennis technique or otherwise? And why dot hey do it?!
Yes, i noticed Roddick pulling on his shirts all the time aswell.
Yes, i noticed Roddick pulling on his shirt all the time aswell.
Ana Ivanovic:- always wipes her foot over the service line for god knows what reason. Also doesn't step on the lines when she's making her way onto court
Andy:- always wants white towels..always windges when he never has them
Federer:- always spins his racquet and blows on his hand (although alot do that) Spose he does it just for something to do. Also always wipes his eye brows with his index finger all the time
Hewitt:- always straightens his hat and puts his hair behind his ears. Guess he wants his hair out of his face and his hat straight. Also always touches his down stairs department alot, gettin that front wedgie out i guess.
Radek Stephanek:- sometimes after he serves an ace or it hits the net kicks his butt when he runs. Does it to be intimidating
Dinara Safina:- i notice when she tosses the ball will look directly at the camera for a spilt second before she looks up (dunno if its a habit but she does it a fair bit)
Sharapova will only take the balls from the ball kids on a certain side, i think Jankovic does it aswell, sometimes Safina.
Serena Williams:- between sets and change of ends (without a break between sets) walks around the other side of the net, not past the umpire (i think she always does it?)
aldrinred - it goes back to the ball kid....
