them talking about how players are having difficulty in returning alex eala’s fookelya second serve. and the fucking zoom in to 71 mph. absolute cinema 😭 #CincyTennis

Slow serves are the hardest to return because you always end up over hitting them. But great players have to adapt and figure out this and at some point people will work on figuring out serves of Eala.

why they zoomed in???😭

Alex suddenly changed the slow serve game. Alex Rodnick says the slow speed disrupts the timing of heavy hitters. Add to Alex’s elite ball striking .

Notice that once the ball hits the ground, it changes its trajectory and veers away from the opponent and that's what makes it difficult to return.

I swear to god if I ever hear Navratilova say fookelya 🤣

this is cracking me up😭

That’s a very hard serve to return low velocity with a lot of spin,

Slow serve should have been a disadvantage to Eala right? She's just too good!!!

Galing talaga ng serve niya lumiliko yung bola. May pektus

Fookelya once… shame on me

@bluepebbless It's like a drop serve.

Wow! Its like tennis version of cricket's spin bowl 😯

The WTA players should play the seniors at my local court. They'd get an insight on how to deal with the fookelya serve.

Am behind the syllabus why call it fookelya?

The fucking zoom is such a punchline.

Stop niyo na yang mga terminology niyo na yan. Wag kayong jologs. Pinapauso niyo pa, yanh mabahong term na yan

Roddick on his pod talked about her serve being tricky to retun not only bc of speed but angels spin, lefty…etc . So it’s not necessarily speed or that makes it tricky

It’s hard to return because it’s a child’s serve…

its a skit 😭😭😭

It’s called leftie serve it can be hard to handle

Belinda Bencic and Paolini has no problem returning Alex Eala's serve they already figured it out.

It'll work vs top 25 for like a year or 2 max.

If Eala can respond to fast serve, then other players should hone their skills on hitting slower yet spinning serves.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

The Legendary Fookelya serve.

@rjm10chs me vs Pedro Penduko’s dink 2nd serve

Fucking ridiculous
