I truly try not to be annoyed by stuff on the tennis court. Everybody plays a little bit differently, and I try not to let peculiarities get under my skin. With the exception of smoking. the last couple of years, I have had several opponents who smoked before and/or after the match. First off, within the confines of a windless tennis court, I have to inhale that foul stuff. Secondly, there are no ashtrays on a tennis court, so where are your butts going?!
What's the consensus on this?
A few weeks ago, we were at our home courts loading up for an away match, and the 3.0 guys were getting ready for a home match. One of the 3.0 players (#1 singles!) lit up right behind where we were standing. One of my players asked him if that was a regular thing for him before a singles match. Before he could answer, my "Tourette's" flared up, and I said, "If you're going to take up a habit that is so unhealthy, why don't you make it crystal meth? At least then your court coverage would improve."
Oh, did I say that?
