i'm no tennis fan but it's a ****ing insane game. the combination of reflexes, speed, and power required. not to mention how precise you need to be with your placement.
if anyone has 10 minutes to spare and wants to see just how good you need to be to be the best football player in the world, check this out
not only the best football player, but i would also say the best technically gifted athlete. if you look at a LeBron James, Cam Newton, Mike Trout, whoever else you want to point out as an elite tier athlete, they all use their out of this world physicality to help bring them to that level. Messi doesn't have that. he's tiny, even by a footballers standards. messi doesn't have the ability to go shoulder to shoulder or out power his opponents, so instead he makes sure every other aspect of his game is as sharp as humanly possible. you have to appreciate the work he puts in.
