 wow should start to follow these transguys. eye out for this Shishkina it is but what i'm really interested in is who is this gorgeous jogging with her |
|
By:
i'm sorry i missed the bit about stamps
 |
|
By:
oh hadn't got there yet. very cute. pretty cool if she still were collecting them
|
|
By:
yeah, they get it right some time, they've also done features on rafa and williams sisters when they were young. i remember watching a feature on the harrison brothers way back before I had even heard of them.

By:
of course they don't say anything about ryan harrison when they brag about who they have covered in the past
 |

give em time he he

i was disappointed at lack of rafa speaking english. Considering how poor he was at it at 20ish, imagine his english at 16. there's also a clip of rafa playing gasquet at a young age (13-15?). Should be easy to find on youtube if you're interested.
I've given up on Ryan, hopefully the younger one can do better. |

By:
they would say handball
|
|
By:
not that I blame Rafa for Spain's education system. And he did the right thing when focusing on tennis and dealing with speaking english later.

wow ,i know the secret of haase mugness.he is natural left handed but plays with right hand
|
|
By:
btw same as me lol
 |
|
By:
also no arse picking. and he doesn't shake umpire's hand after the match.
|
|
By:
Is that the secret of Nadal's 'mugginess' too? Or is the fact that he does it in reverse that makes him not a mug?
|
|
By:
so rafa is righthanded?
|
|
By:
Yes
|
|
By:
didnt know that
|
|
By:
we geniuses all do that
|
|
By:

ffs Bedene so close to 1.01 bustin
|
|
By:
i do the same trick, im left handed but cant write left hand only right
|
|
By:
Nadal is a manufactured leftie in that it was a conscious decision to play with the unnatural hand in order to gain the 'leftie advantage'.
Haase just played with his right when he started playing at three years old because his parents were righties and he copied them. See the difference? |

By:
Koukie is doing me proud, I backed her in the second set and she's won every game since
Beginning to make up for a **** day |
|
By:
Alright she lost a game, sub 1.05 might go up in smoke so time to green
 |
|
By:
Jinx
|
|
By:
scare to think how good nadal would be if they let him play right handed what a mugs
|
|
By:
good thing for nadal everyone else didn't do the same, as there would have been no leftie advantage if so.
|
|
By:
|
|
By:
Not necessarily. His backhand gains a lot from the fact that he is putting his strong hand on top.
|
|
By:
and then haase would have been world no 1.
|
|
By:
|
|
By:
And Rafa's forehand is basically the best anyway. A few have more power by hitting flat, or more potential variation and winners, but there isn't another forehand that hits so hard with so little margin and breaks down so rarely.
|
|
By:
yes but he got different feel in the right hand. i know as a leftie that things im doing with right hand even if manufactured and cant do them with left hand are quite awkward unatural
|
|
By:
*so much margin
