That's just SICK. Sam Groth fired 36 aces today.

Unbelievable. 36 aces in three sets.

Actually it was indoors, they moved it because of rain.

Just the kind of player we need in the ATP

Don't worry, he won't be televised much. Or live-streamed even.

ah yes true, do we know if it was hardcourts ? it looked like, from the scores, yes.

That's Serena level from the Azarenka match (on average per set).

I cant see the link, did he won the match? :lol:

disgusting serve bots killing tennis one ace at a time.

6-7(4), 7-6(3), 7-6(5) was the scoreline, Groth won BTW.

Yeah we have so many serve bots in the top 50 and so few defensive baseliners. :rolleyes:

karlo hit 50 aces at RG vs hewitt in 2009
he lost in 5 sets and i guess hewitt is a better returner than whoever groth faced today...

Can anyone post the stats?

impressive :hatoff:

I dont get it.

was it 66 aces or something and you typo'd?

36 is nothing to be excited about

Listen to me, vomit.
I remember you. Back in 2010, you used to be a good poster, who had one of the best signatures ever and I was expecting every time you updated it during big tournaments, that was pretty hardcore, pretty cool. I used to respect and enjoy your posts.

You had respect for all players. ALL-Players.

But, it was 2010, without Delpo on tour. Since Delpo came back, you turned yourself into a mindless hater-bitch. Awful, disgusting, only shitting on the boards and hating.

In the last year and a half, you haven't post any good posts. Only SHIT.

yea Ossie what happened to you man? u used to be one of the cool guys here

Only ever remember ossie as a garbage poster. You guys might be right though

Was Groth the same guy who served the fastest serves ever?

I'm very impressed, but at the same time I feel as if tennis is taking a step backward.

Why?

Why?

maybe he indicating that he would that in today's game that players are well rounded enough that it is not possible for them to win on serve alone. Groth won today because of his serve, like Karlovic it is only big consistant weapon.

I sort of disagree with his comment though, the 90's was a period of big servers and that era was certainly more talented than today's

The comment made no sense. Guys are winning on consistency and defensive ability today, not on big serves, which is ironic because when guys were winning primarily based on serve, they weren't doing it year round, that's the difference.

Groth :worship: get the ranking up for U.S open quallies!

i am not impressed.

Doesn't mean shit when he hardly wins a match.

affirmative. talk to us when he tosses in 100 aces in a single match against a decent player and actually manages to win that damn match.

Understandable though. It's nigh impossible to process the thought of ossie being a good poster.

sadly this is the truth since too much. back in the days ossie was really a good fella.

His serve is way better since he broke up with Jarmilla ;)

.. and Jarmilla is going south since then :haha:

look, no one expects to pay sam millions.

compare sam's attitude to roddick's decline and increasingly confusing serving and bitter, smarmy personality.
roddick believed he'd earn respect and sneak a slam win again (with half the ace numbers....LMAO).

How bad is he at tennis that he can have that serve and lose almost all his matches?

quite bad
