Stan Wawrinka’s water is dropping and he’s sitting by a brand called Waterdrop. 😂
it was not water, so its not something he can get back easily. He did overreact, i agree on that
It is juice
@@AlexFortunyLlop the juice for the man
Sounds hilarious too haha
It’s a special drink, most of the time really expensive, and tennis players have even all the sips counted bc it’s a energy strategy made with a Nutritionist
i like how Paire is able to get into the video without even saying anything
That's a great observation bro😅
Because he is VIP bro
You can’t have a TA video on the men’s side without Paire
Gulbis went from the semi-finals of the French to complaining on the Challenger Tour.
hahahahhahahahahahahah
So true😂
Does it on purpose for sure
I was recently told by an Eastern European friend that Gulbis died and was pronounced dead by the ATP after he flatlined.
I later realized he was referring to Gulbis’ career.
To avoid future miscommunication, I taught him to instead say that Gulbis’ career went “into the shitter”. An expression which he now uses with disturbing frequency - often to describe tournament concessions which don’t live up to what he remembered in previous years.
@@markieffmorris9263 your fault hah
I see tennis advocate i click
Same
🙏💚
Only a Great friend would stand up for someone like Daniil did. Much respect to him.
he said that 5% out of love for his buddy Rublev, 95% percent because he hates Tsitsipas. Fact. :P
that ref out to destroy munar's whole career 💀💀
At this point its insane. knowing that the next year could depend on these tournament ... And the refs never gets in trouble, we see them coming back again and again
also lmaoo at munar. didn't even say thank you to djere who didn't need to give him that point. rlly happy djere won after such good sportsmanship
He did say thank you. It just wasn't subtitled
I don't like Munar, but he got royally screwed here. Ok, the second one is very difficult for the umpire to see, but she couldn't even quote the rule properly.
Munar is a real petty asshole. The racket hit was really reaching asking her to call that one out. If he could have returned the shot he would have had a winner but the point was over before the racket brushed the bottom of net maybe.
Yes the umpire should have looked at the big screen and saw it was clearly NOT UP and reversed her call. But he's such a whinner, Jeezus.
Everything should be challengeable. The sport is stupid for limiting what players can challenge. They have visual, audio, hawkeye, and slow-mo replay. Use them. The fossils that are in charge of the rule book can't die off quickly enough
The ref made two mistakes there, Munar is right
Just curious, why don't you like Munar?
@@MrBolaextra Well, I don't like him as a player. Nothing personal.
If Gulbis is not featured in a tennis drama reel, then the drama reel is unfinished. And Paire of course.
i think he retired lately😪
@@Kili2807 Did he? It must have been recently. He added a lot of spice to the mix.
Bro, seriously this Wawrinka is such a hothead, absolutely no character on court. This guy needs to consult a psychiatrist.. And ppl are praising him for giving some advice to Rune which was actually unruly and Rune took it in right spirit too..
Umpire: "We need to play, Ernests"
Gulbis: "Come and play then"
😆
Completely childish behaviour from Wawrinka 😮😮
Gulbis played 1-2 matches this year but he is in this video. Legend.
And is there anyone who actually likes Tpas? He’s so arrogant and childish.
Gulbis has to be one of the most annoying dudes on circuit. Crying all the time.
Benoit Paire appears in more Drama Compilations than in first round of ATP tournaments
I'm Spanish and I hate Munar's attitude. Even when he is right he uses to cry a lot and have an unsportsmanlike conduct. If we add his wall style of play Jaume is one of the less enjoyables TOP100 players to watch and follow.
Es un estilo válido como cualquier otro, y no le va mal. De todas formas no puedes llegar al top 60 de la ATP siendo solo un pasabolas como insinúas.
@@MrBolaextra Cómo? a pesar de no ser mi estilo de juego favorito, considero muy meritorio y valoro muchísimo a los jugadores que llegan a la élite sin tener armas que les permitan generar winners, teniendo que suplir esa carencia por táctica y fuerza mental. Mi crítica a Jaume es más bien en cuanto a actitud en la pista muchas veces, como ejemplo ahora mismo acaba de reclamar una bola en su partido vs Vavassori que claramente entró. Ojalá siga los pasos de Zapata, que también en pista tenía un fuerte carácter pero parece que va madurando y calmándose en los momentos clave.
He is an irritant. Some players are just like that.
Wawrinka acting like a past his prime spoiled diva . What a totally ridiculous tantrum.
What would you do if your pink water was dropping?
@@JLongTom reverse the bottle so it doesnt drop from the bottom bruuuuuuuuh
Can't wait till he's done
he has always been like this. Check AO 2014 final
It was his ONLY bottle for the whole match. The consequences would have been career ending.
Stan complaining about a bottle leaking or whatever and having a whole baby about it is prime example of how spoiled and entitled a lot of tennis players are. Which makes sense because when it comes to their team it's all about them and they get used to that kind of treatment, but it's quite distasteful to see.
i mean they broke his bottle, i don’t think it’s fair to say he was in the wrong there
It wasnt just water. It was probably some special drink to recover during the match
Yeah i thought Stan was better than this. Still great, but yeah, let himself down a bit here.
@@rengokusfox He's being being an obnoxious fucking baby about it. Like op said, tennis players can be spoiled little brats. Dude deserved to lose that match.
I would like to see you play tennis for 2 hours straight with nothing to drink. Idiot!!!
Don’t understand how Aurelie Tourte is umpiring slam finals as she constantly makes huge mistakes. Wu celebrating twice after winning points by cheating is poor sportsmanship too. Munar was hard done by here.
Now they don't have to do almost anything since are line calls are automated. And the few things they have to do, they do it wrong.
Tourte again? Who would have thought? Sometimes I honestly think she's half-blind. Let's be honest, there are a bunch of terrible umpires on the tour. A lot of good ones sure, but Tourte is god-awful.
Munar may be annoying but was right both times and got robbed, even worse on 2nd time at MP
right? feel so bad for this guy struggling and being hurt by bad calls
brutal calls. that ump is featured more than any other ump on the tour. coincidence?
@Sasha Spano still by far the worst umpire is that Asian one
I meaaann... he lost that 2nd point, letting go of racquet didnt help Wu finish the ball, it was already all done... just take the L with respect. well played and finished point
@Degielo It's the same situation as Novak losing the point in RG SF against Rafa with the smash
Deserved to win the point but lost it cuz of the rule,so, the same should have applied here
Wu's racket clearly touched the net before the 2nd bounce of the ball
Yesssss, the best way to start a weekend is with some fresh tennis drama ❤
Shapo asking his bench to go away, the guys don’t move. Great team spirit.
"team" means sticking together.
shapo is just acting like a brat there.
i mean where do they have to go? they are there because it's also their job. just like him.
@@GlennDeBlock I think you don't get the point. The team is here to support the player not the opposite. Eventually, he will win or lose the match and the team should make him feel comfortable not just force and stay. See the coach of Medvedev, he sometimes quit the bench for the sake of the result. That is their job. They can as well go have a drink and think how to communicate better next time.
@@iansmirna5183 I dont agree, sorry. To force someone to quit an important task of their job is just immature of Shap. not everything is just solely about him
@@GlennDeBlock bro what? theyre not DOING thier job by not listening to shapo. he literally pays them. they just need to show thier support and if he needs them to leave then thats what must happen. And it is bascially only about as hes the one playing the match, their job is to help him win matches, so by not respecting his request theyre actually doing the opposite of their job and not helping him achieve victory. you cant be this foolish bro
Shapovalov would probably have had a go at them for leaving too.
He just likes blaming everyone else.
Medvedev is ❤
I'm not really a tennis fan but I absolutely love these videos. I can not believe the umpires allow the players to get away with so much disrespect.
Doesn’t help when some umps are thick as mince
If you're not a tennis fan then you clearly don't know the rules of tennis and you're in no position to comment.
@@HyperHorse chill bro
@@mnnvikes101 hes right though
yea u have no idea what u r talking about. This is only the drama that happens once every 30 matches
I love the kind of situations like Munar's on this video (it could be any other ATP player, actually):
- Random player commits 37 unforced errors, 7 double-faults and uncountable tactical and strategic errors through the match.
- Same player spends 2 hours and a half complaining about how the single error made by the umpire has cost him the match.
Umpire errors can cost someone a match though, what's your point?
@@vicdu1995 completely agree and it was two big mistakes by the ref. loosing two points when you should normally win them can surely turns you crazy. The ref could just admitted her errors seeing the screen and that could calm the situation but she decided to just call him crazy in some way. Not a good ref at all.
omg at 15:40 it was a clear double bounce and Wu just accepted the point. very disappointing conduct from Wu.
Off a net cord though…I would’ve kept the point too
@@Onanastic that's poor sportsmanship on your part too.
It wasn't clear. Not the first replay. When they played it on the big screen or said that it was clear. That Net cord was not a point for Munar. Sorry Ump wrong on first but right on second.
not only accepted, he also expressed some arrogant comment with a smile on his face when Munar was complaining...
@@volley-tennisdsM yes, that was totally out of order.
Gulbis has to be one of the most annoying players on tour. Glad hes far from being close to the top.
He is literally filling up a bottle with water as he says he needs a bottle. WTF
13:27 "Incredible sportsmanship"....it is but only because it's so rare! This should be something ALL players should acknowledge if they know for sure there hasn't been a fault and they've gained an unfair advantage. I'd like to see it more. Much more.
Real men speak up. Weaklings keep quiet.
With double bounces as well. Ridiculous
Munar: "Yeah, funny"
I love this channel and these videos but honestly its ridiculous how badly tennis player behave and who the hell they think they are. For example Wawrinka its super arrogant and narcist behaviour! And I used to like him.. I dont like Munar but I can understand his frustration because he was really screwed.
But does anyone know what happened to Stan's bottle? It was leaking, but did the umpire tripped over it?
who carez lol?
its just a silly plastic bottle
Just as Tsitsipas goes up a notch in my book, the last 6 months or so, with his gameplaying antics and his better sportsmanship nowadays, he said this. I wouldn't mind being a top 10 player with the few weapons i have. That's just me.
I feel EXACTLY the same as you. I was warming to him, especially after the encounter he had with Kyrgios in Wimbledon to be honest. The thing that makes his whole 'few tools' comment worse is that he aimed it at one of the nicest players on tour in Rublev. He has apparently apologised to him in private so fairplay to him for that but yeah, it made me side eye him all over again as there was no need for it.
@@NorfolkEnchants once a dick always a dick
Also, I don't think he's any different from the few tools any other ATP player but Nadal, Djokovic and maybe Alcaraz have. If you value skills, you have to follow the WTA; the ATP is everything about who's faster and who hits harder.
Yeah, people don't change their true character that quickly. Just get a bit better at masking it sometimes. Tsitsipas pulls off some pretty awesome tennis at times and it makes me really want to like him, and then sometimes he will really say something kind but it's just so clear that deep down he's a total a**hole you would hate to cross paths with in any everyday setting.
Lol, better sportsmanship. As if. Twistypast KNEW he had multiple injuries & still played in Turin long enough to keep Hubi from actually being able to compete outright. Alcaraz got injured in 2022 & didn't play in Turin which allowed Fritz to compete, win two RR matches, & reach the SF. Between the elbow injury, the shoulder injury, & the back injury, EZ Pass should not have played Turin. Hubi could've replaced him and actually delivered, but Olive Oil is too rancid & petty for such sportsmanship.
Wawrinka acting like a spoilt brat.
Hardly. Hydration is very important when you're doing any athletic endeavour. You're clearly someone who doesn't play any sport, let alone tennis.
@@HyperHorse They so arrogant and disinformed
@@HyperHorse I was not talking about hydration at all. I was talking about him acting like a complete brat about it. When there were not one but two grown men trying to help him fix the issue and both of them literally wiping up the liquid for him while he continued to rant at them like some overgrown toddler. Are you dense? Also assuming bs about me that you don't know, are wrong about in addition to which _makes absolutely no difference to my point._
@@PsycoFogna I'm arrogant and not the grown man throwing a hissy because _his liquid bottle is leaking?_ You sound like you need remedial reading comprehension classes.
Noone asks how that bottle got a hole in the first place?
Munar is some kind of Drama Queen but Wu is sooo arrogant cheater, unbelievable!
Much as I've found these videos entertaining the last few years, I'm aware that anger management and self-control is not what it used to be. If memory serves me well, if a top player had smashed their racket with such violence and vigour in the 70s and 80s it would be a significant sign of a particularly fiery character. In recent years I've got used to seeing the temper flare-ups of Djokovic, Ostapenko, Paire and others resulting in them digging their racket into the court with force and breaking it. NOW it looks like everyone's doing it.
Berrettini now?? Shapovalov now? It's becoming just 'one of those things' now.
Whatever happened to 'the Federer effect'? Containing and settling oneself within a match. We all know how Roger began his career with such a bad temper. For the last twenty years though, he gave NOTHING away of any turmoil or anger in his head. It CAN be done. You don't HAVE to smash your racket up.
Course if you're Ernest Gulbis, then it's not even worth discussing. The man's a child.
You must have selective memory, because I have seen Federer break rackets, speak badly to umpires, and be a very sore loser in press conferences. Nadal, on the other hand, has never broken a racket.
How about federer throwing trash all over the court , or nadal screaming at his opponent ? Djokovic has never done that
I blame it on all the hate that surrounds the players that lose. Its so much hate on the social networks man. Even if a player wins. Makes people so uptight and pressured to win. Twitter is cancer
Usually these are just the endpoint of bad luck/bad calls/unforced errors compounding most of these are second sets or later
@@MrBolaextra I must have selective memory indeed as I watched Federer for twenty years, including four times in the flesh at Wimbledon and the O2 in London, and I can't recall ever seeing him break a racket, can you give an example?
I am a Stan fan but he is being ridiculous. Is he okay?🙄🙄
It’s a legit reasoning, he came prepared and he had a specific energy drink he needed to bring, he was prepared and yeah he could’ve stayed calm when he was asked if he could get an empty container to put the drink in but you know he has every right to be upset, if that happened to you, I bet you would have done the same, good day to you and wish you the best in your life and your whole career
@@PerfectaSc0re what are you even talking about? Did you read the part about me being a Stan fan? It’s an energy drink. Legit reasoning? He is a grown man. You should have stopped your reply at, “Yeah, he could have stayed calm.” No need to insult me. Take care of yourself.
@@parmahmac6073 He didn't insult yoi. You did insult Wawrinka instead
He needed a new container. What about the 3 bottles next to him? Where they not real? He is sitting on the water drop bench and it took that long to get a new bottle
@@jennym2276 those bottles already had something in it, you think he would just waste those water bottles full of water for his match, does that seem to make sense to you?
Lol Wawrinka and the stupid drink. Wayyyy exaggerated.
WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO NOW??? I CANT START PLAYING.
lol
Tennis players are almost as big of babies as soccer players. You're playing in a stadium with FANS! There is going to be some noise happening. You're a professional athlete....act like one.
Munar is right both times lol
Overall Tourte is one of the better umpires though
The double bounce absolutely, the match point though I think Tourte has the right call because the ball had already passed.
@@mikezittritsch3888 The racket touched the net before the second bounce -- point should've gone to Munar. Point is over when the ball bounces twice and you are not allowed to touch the net (with your body or racket) while the ball is in play.
@@C_M_R I get that, those are the rules and all. At the same time for Wu to lose that point when he very clearly won it because the racket bounced towards the net after he dropped it also seems a bit ridiculous, that's probably why Munar didn't really get as upset as he could have.
@@mikezittritsch3888watch the match Rafa vs Nole Roland Garros 2013, 5th set, when Djokovic hits a clear winner which Nadal absolutely couldn’t reach but lost his balance and touched the net, point gone to Nadal without any doubt because this is how the rule works. U can’t touch the net before ball is dead(double bounce).
seeing a lot of people that doesn't play high level tennis in the comments. stan's drink wasn't "just water." it's an electrolyte mix. professional athletes get them from their trainers/physios after getting results from their sweat tests/panels. the physios are able to give them a specific amount of glucose and electrolytes specific to their needs of how much they lose in their sweat. some top players take it a step further in which they have specific drinks at certain junctures of a match. which is why you would see some of them with up to 4-6 bottles of different colored drinks.
He was being a little bitch about it
Thank you. Comments have no clue what they are talking about
Wawrinka acting like a spoilt baby nevertheless . He had 2 grown men catering to him, wiping the floor of the drink for him yet he kept acting like some soldier deprived of vital reinforcements. Entitled beyond belief.
>seeing a lot of people that don't play high level tennis. Yeah, thats like 99% of people watching these videos.
@@sunshinef263y they took the initiative to start wiping. but i guess you’re not going to acknowledge stan cleaning the rest before getting up to start the match huh? and as a player, you are required to not leave the court. so really the only thing he could do here was state his frustration that his ONLY sports drink was spilling everywhere. you try playing a 1.5-2 hr match, sweating hard and only having plain water to rehydrate. athletes need electrolytes and glucose.
Lord Gulbis wants silence. The peasants must obey.
ATP: Sorry, we can't handle a liquid bottle literally anyway
.. and they manage to use the clean towel for simply everything, what a waste
Gulbis having the audacity to complain about prize money when he's never had to worry about money in his entire fucking life.
Stan made this into a way bigger deal than it should have been, in a fair world he would have been made to lick the liquid off the floor for behaving like a brat. Many of these players are delusional
Wow, I had to skip Wawrinka's scene. Couldn't complete it, way worse and EXAGGERATED than the amount of scenes from Paire, Ostapenko and Krygios
Please don’t stop making these videos!
I see many people support Wu and ump against Munar. I mean... read the rules of tennis. The first one thanks to the sportsmanship of Djere they replayed. That double bounce was very hard to see, I can understand the call, but it's really frustrating for the players that they lose the point like this. But that MP was absolutely robbed fron Munar. The rule clearly says, that you cannot touch the net woth your body or racquet until the point is finished. And it was NOT, it was before the second bounce on Munar's side
The double bounce was also very clear. It is simple science. As Munar (and Federer in a similar event) explained: ball got spin, which is impossible on a single bounce. Referees should be taught this kind of math so they 're not only dependent on their eyes at the moment of touch but if they're in doubt, simply follow the ball's trajectory.
Munar had a point tho against Wu, it was a double bounce and the racket did hit the net first 😅
Wait for Benoire Paire…
Man these TA videos are never long enough. And this is coming from someone so online, with such a short attention span that tik tok and UA-cam shorts are often much too long for me, and I wish they had fast forward button😂.
But this never the case w Tennis Advocate videos. Well done!
I think Stan was having a real bad morning. So weird to go crazy over a drink like that.
But I also get it: the ump should've just got another bottle, why make it longer than it should
@@jelmar9209 Absolutely. Bad job from the umpire also.
@@jelmar9209 Didn't he do that? He called for a new bottle , which wasn't shown or edited out (though we see him motion for it) then a second tournament official came out and gave Stan a new bottle.
@@sunshinef263y yeah after atleast 15 minutes of useless waiting for a simple bottle. why didn't they just put extra bottles near the waterstation: make a whole waterstation and bench with 10 brandnames but no extra bottles at grabbingdistance
I mean think about it. that could have caused an injury to anyone running near there. we've all seen rallies during the years of players having to slide near the benches to get to the ball. an injury isn't fun.
5000% Wu should have lost that match point at the end of this vid. Refs will be refs smh...
Can anyone explain what’s going on with Nishioka mentally? He’s at a career high in ranking and in anger
He was absolutely frustrated due to several mistakes made by the umpire during his match... but yes, he doesn't keep his temper...
He can’t handle the extreme pressure of big time tennis. It’s no joke.
it’s the pressure of now being “expected” to win more matches than before. similar to when a new WTA player wins a big title or grand slam and then going into a slump right after. when you’re not expected to win anything, you can play freely and enjoy your matches. when you’re expected to win, you feel like you can’t enjoy as much because you are thinking of all the contracts/endorsements that you need to maintain etc.
Yoshi knows he's too short to really be a threat to the top players, so when things go wrong in an important match, he freaks out. Ends up getting eliminated early like he knew he would. The guy has won two 250s in 10 years. He's your standard Asian pusher who takes opponents to three sets only to get gassed before the finish line.
Benoit Paire and Ernests Gulbis as special guests
For me Munar was robbed in all the cases
Okay Munar was being a dick in the first one, but he got screwed over with the second one.
Wawrinka there are literally three bottled behind you haha
I really believe most of times this close double bounce you can't see but cmon the umpire MUST pay fully attention.
It’s clear in slow motion. Not at full speed.
Wawrinka is soooo disrespectful... Way worse than Rune
Munar was robbed at Indian Wells
My advise to you Stan: stop acting like a baby
The worst thing about "drama" in tennis is that 90% of the time players are actually in the right, but they get labeled as bad people just because of the inadequacy of umpires
Around 70% pf them are wrong or at least they manage the situation rather bad
Gulbis is crazy ahahahah
Someone needs to give Stan his bottle, change his diaper and put him down for a nap. He's clearly a cranky baby.
You broke my bottle! WAAAAAHH! WAAAAAHH!😫.
10:31 -- This was a terrible approach shot.
Why does wawrinka sound like that
Gulbis was right, specially the second time
I was surprised how bad Stan's English is tbh
I feel bad for Munar tbh
I am sure that after match Stan said that he lost because of that bad start with bottle incident
Jaume was right both times, that umpire was really bad... She would be fined for missing twice.
Tell me, does the killing of rackets really compensate for losing points.😁
Love Medvedev and Rublevs friendship ♥️♥️♥️
nishiokas attitude on court is just terrible
According to the rules “a player loses the point if any part of his body or the racket whether in the players hand or not or anything the player is wearing or carrying touches the net while the ball is in play.
Aurélie Tourte is such a mess lol.
Three bottles beside Stan, he proceeds to fill up a separate bottle with water while he whinged. He is so annoying, grow up
Well, Munar ist certainly one of the Most unlikeable Players. And he is not even a good player....
I wish players would just make their point to the umpire and move on. All this endless back and forth arguing is so stupid. It's even dumber to do all that arguing just to end up losing the match anyway. Just get on with it.
Does anyone know how and who broke WaWaWarinka's bottle ??
Munar and Paire are made for one another...both crybabies....they talk more and play less now...
Stan, don´t behave like a little baby on the court.
Technically he was not on the court
The last argument is just a discussion out of despair. In what world would the racket hitting the net that lightly even remotely affect the outcome of the rally? :p
It wasn't a clear double bounce.
Hard to call on the fly.
Munar is like Raducanu... Came out of nowhere, beat a strong field consisting of Paire and Lord Gulbis, and became the star of this drama video. Probably (and hopefully) we won't be seeing him again for a long time.
Wouldn‘t say Munar came out of nowhere, with all his grunting and everything, he always seemed insanely unlikeable to me
But tbf he did have fair points in today‘s video
The last clip he’s being a sore loser hoping for a technicality
but raducanu hasn't started any drama in matches tough... ;3
I've seen many games from Munar and he is a gentlemanin court. But in both matches showed here he got screwed, and he had every reason to complain.
Tennis players are spoiled brats. Nothing to like about them
Hehe, Wu was a bit nasty there with his 'but the shot after was great' since he knew the ball bounced twice and didn't say a single word (unlike Djere). It's understandable he cheated (or rather, not showing sportsmanship as it's not really cheating), but putting salt into the wound? Racket net touch was also bad call. Racket touched the racket way before the ball bounced twice. Again, Wu kept his mouth shut. Understandable as he won the match with it.
How tourte is still on the tour? Every game there’s something wrong with her
The umpire was really bad with the two decisions against Munar, tight calls like the first one, she may give the benefit of doubt to Wu (who should have admitted it was double bounce). Umpires need training on how the ball would spin if it was a second bounce vs first bounce…
The second error was so blatant…it’s a slow court, it’s clear the racket touched the net before second bounce. On top of that she erred and said it touched the net after the first bounce. Both cases we need replays when umpires pretend to be decisive on decisive points 17:46
Now we can see why Shapo is gone because there is no peace and understanding in his team
Why is gulbis still playing lol. Isnt his dad a billionaire or something
I have read through all the comments about the rule that Munar was arguing for on his match point but it is crazy that you can see something like 19:04 and say that Wu deserved to lose that point. The double bounce absolutely, but this? The racket lightly touched the net after leaving his hand well after making a play. If you want to hardline that go ahead but it feels like enforcing a rule like that sucks all the joy out of a really impressive shot. The Djokovic and Nadal situation could have the same said, though I would argue that is still pretty different what actually happened on the play.
has few tools, but uses them with skills
Idk what Munar is talking about on that double bounce sequence. Yes, it was a double bounce, but it came with back spin, not top spin. Sounds like he was trying to take one from the roger federer book! LOL
On January 24, Gulbis refused to continue the qualifying match and on the same day won the first round match as a lucky loser, and the second round match on January 26 in this video
The umpires are so obnoxious when making a mistake involving points, they just cant accept their errors, and they arent punished for them
Oh my god, that thing with the topspin and double bounces. When will people realize that it's nonsense?
