Hazards of Being a Ball Girl
While the majority of professional tennis players are household names, their success is frequently attributed to the efforts of other, less well-known players on the court. Ball girls, also known as ball people, are those who assist tennis players by quickly collecting and distributing tennis balls to them. Despite the fact that these unsung heroes are well-trained and prepared for any situation, nothing could have prepared this ball lady for the shock of having a tennis player fall on her.
Watch the video above to find out more. In 2009, this young ball lady was taken completely by surprise when French tennis great, Michael Llodra, fell on her while playing a practice match.
Making Faces
While no one enjoys a bitter loser, no one enjoys an ungrateful or boastful winner any more than they do. This photo was taken of Argentinian soccer player Carlos Tevez, as he seemingly taunted the opposition team or gloated about scoring. Because of this gesture, he was labeled “the pied piper” by one Italian news outlet for his actions.
Whereas the pied piper may have attracted rodents with his pipe, Tevez’s talent has resulted in several prizes and awards for him.
