Default Self-abuse on the court

Watching the Bermuda Open, Luis Horna vs. Arguello, cracked me up in the 2nd set when Horna missed a drop volley and *slapped* himself silly! This was the greatest!

A guy I played once did that a few times, it's scary/weird as you hear the slapping sound very clearly when the audience is quiet.

If I ever lose it that bad on a court, I'll lock up my racquets and switch to Xbox.

A guy named Connors used to regularly mimic another kind of 'self-abuse' on the court.

Classy guy, that Jimmy.

Nothing's funnier than when a player accidentally hits himself in the head with his racket.

Yeah, a big bump on your forehead with blood and puss oozing out of a slit in the middle is really funny.
