Watching ladies' tennis is the vocal equivalent of Python's Ministry of Silly Walks... Victoria Azarenka (playing Serena Williams ATM) is particularly annoying with an elongated high pitch "ooooo" every time she strikes the ball.

Isn't it interesting that none of them do it when they are practicing though?
For the tennis folk, it is actually a serious problem. Look at the empty seats in the crowd when there's a ladies match on. From a marketing and revenue angle, that's not good.Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God? - EpicurusComment

EDIT: I've noticed that Azarenka cuts short her silly noise as soon as she hits the ball into the net, so it can't be a breathing thing.Last edited by Platypus; 30 June 2009, 15:22.Comment
