Weirdest moments in tennis?

Question

i've had some strange things happened in tennis. ive seen weirder ones but on youtube... the one with a doubles match where they killed a bird flying by... i mean what are the odds?????

anyway one incident that i had was when i was playing tennis at night..... and we were just playing doubles... then the opponent hit a lob and it seemed like it would go really really far but it landed on my court!!!! now ive found out later that the ball hit the court light..... does that count??? i mean if u hit the net or the pole it counts if the ball drops into the other side... right???

what are your weirdest moments??

Answer 1

At Wimbledon a few years back, in one of Anna Kournikova's matches, this guy rushed onto the court during a changeover completely naked.  He stopped right in front of Kournikova and kind of gave her this creepy look.  She just looked up at him with the best expression on her face, as if to say "Huh, is that all you've got?"  It was classic Kournikova attitude.  She was not impressed!  The guards, who were anything but on guard when the guy first got onto the court, quickly nabbed him and took him away.

Answer 2

are you talking about the Double from llodra-Arnaud Boetsch (from France) at the australian open?i saw that game.It was really strange.I heard that after the game they organize a funeral for this bird... sick!!!

Answer 3

Correct. Hitting anything else is not considered 'in play.' The point was yours.

Weird? I have tons of funny moments.

I have a flat first serve and there was one time I got a hold of the ball particularly well. It aced the returner went through the chain link fence and hit one of my female teammates in the butt (who was bending over for return of serve) haha! We couldn't continue for 3 minutes or so.

Had a couple friends miss overheads and give themselves terrible nut shots.

There was one time my friend rushed the court on a kick serve of mine but my serve hit a ball on the court. It ricocheted up, hit my friend in the forehead and bounced out of the court down a hill (it was a you had to be there situation but it was pretty funny).

Answer 4

yeah that is wierd! i dont really have any wierd moments, except for the time i broke my racket! :( that sucked! i played the whole match though with a broken racket! lol

Answer 5

once during a game, i hit the ball with such force, that i thought it was gonna go straight in the opponents side. But i couldnt find it... then 3 seconds later, i looked up and it hit me in the face... SOO embarrasing! i dont know what i did wrong. i'm decent at the game
