This Italian player is well-known for unexpectedly defeating then-world champion Justine Henin back in 2004. One look at this picture and you know how dedicated she really is.
This shot was captured during a game in Brisbane, Australia. It was her quarterfinal match against French player Marion Bartoli, in 2009. Bartoli was a challenging opponent for Garbin.
Taylor Dent
This might look like a poorly-timed photo. But, you should know that this is how Taylor Dent usually looks when he’s about to serve. He has many more pictures that look just like this.
Funny, right? This doesn’t mean that he’s any less talented. In fact, before he retired, reached a career-high singles ranking of World No. 21, winning four singles titles.
Rafael Nadal
Let’s be real — Rafael Nadal is easy on the eyes. Even so, though, we can all admit that this isn’t the best picture of the Spanish tennis player.
This picture was taken when the world’s No. 2 tennis champion was shaking off some sweat during his 2015 Wimbledon match. In the end, he won the match against Thomaz Bellucci from Brazil. Not everyone has this kind of perseverance.
Vitalia Diatchenko
Russia’s Vitalia Diatchenko is a stylish woman, be it on or off the tennis court. However, that hasn’t stopped photographers from catching her in funny positions. This was the 2015 Wimbledon match and, from the looks of it, she’s pretty focused on that ball.
But, she pays little heed to such pictures. In 2018, she even defeated former No. 1 tennis champion Maria Sharapova. Who cares about these kinds of photos when you’re known to defeat world champions?
Tennis is a wonderful game. The players give it their all and push themselves to incredible limits. This is what garners the admiration of their fans and viewers across the world. However, this can often result in some hilarious moments. Keep scrolling to see funny moments that were captured on camera…
