Rafa has quality dig technique. He's in and out quickly with meaningful depth.

I used to be fine with the butt dig, but he has added head wipe, nose touch, head wipe on serve, as well as a dick tug on return.

That's pretty fast I'm going 15

Especially if it's a break or set point

What's going on with the sound in Arthur Ashe?

Are people just not paying attention?

Eta: just read the rest of the thread and saw it was mentioned. My bad.

It'll never happen, but I wish they would allow the crowd to make noise at all times. I don't see anyone pushing for silence when a guy is shooting free throws in college basketball.

Noise never really bothered me playing tennis. Golf on the other hand, wasn't great.

That being said constant noise is pretty easy IMO to play through. It's the one loud noise that is tougher.

Yeah, I guess they're worried about a heckler screaming on match point and changing the outcome.

I just hate when players hold up the match because 1 fan in the upper deck hasn't made it to his seat yet.

What's crazy is in most posters lifetime the engineering of sports has allowed for retractable roofs, grass fields built on slabs, and replay is now available to everyone because of screens.
