As a fan you have got to see the positives: at least he's still got his racquets:)

Running shoes are made for mainly straightforward movement, and hence do not offer any (or in the best case only very little) lateral support. Tennis however involves a lot of sideways movement, stop and starts etc. As a result, you should always opt for tennis shoes when playing, otherwise you...

Ruud has given up. Kind of pathetic to watch
