Like this?Would be great if the slow server could notify the receiving player when to expect a serve that lands in!
Serve Notification:
You will be receiving a serve ETA 3:45 PM EDST. If fault, ETA can occur five minutes later. In case of double fault, a new notification will be issued.

I mean I think a lot of people were annoyed by the back scratch. Me? I turned an instant fan.

Of course. The Backscratch (TM) is an integral part of the most famous shot in these tennis forums.

I always wondered why do they pick 3-4 balls only to drop 1-2 afterwards.

Ball discrimination.

No fair, black-balling the white balls in favor of the yellow ones--my balls matter!--they've been gently used and slightly fuzzed up.

FAA and Kevin Anderson- cannot stand watching them serve with those ridiculous pauses mid-motion.
Any player (Sonego, sometimes Schwartzman) who grunts AFTER, and much long after they make contact with the ball.
Cilic's frenetic ball bouncing and back leg shaking makes me anxious.
Tsitsipas seems to have an annoying habit of framing shots; maybe this is just me but it seems that he frames way more than the rest of the Tour.
Habit I find entertaining: Brits shouting at their box. Murray is the founder of this club, Dan Evans the current president. Norrie did some at Wimbledon this year as well.

Djokovic's little angry "nostril flair" he does a lot. Anyone else know what I mean?
Brooksby's whiney "c'mon!" and his orgasm face whenever he does his pathetic serve
Anyone who tries to copy Federer by blowing on their racket hand whenever they hit a winner. Why do players blow on their hand? Only Fed looks cool doing it

How about almost all players constantly whining about crowd noise or someone moving during the point. These are professional athletes. They should be able to keep their concentration and focus through minor disruptions. If basketball and football players, even those that are not professional, can focus through raucous crowd noise and overt attempts to distract them (like screaming and waiving hands during free throws) then professional tennis players should be able to play when someone 40 rows up gets up to go to the toilet!

Cilic’s serve routine. Konta’s as well.

A nun once told me the most annoying habits are those that don’t quite fit.
It might be if your coach just texted you in the bathroom and told you to "go to his backhand, Stefanos". If that is your name for example.Players glaring or giving a incredulous look to their coach after losing a point.. like it's the coach's fault.

I like him. He is a harmless guy who is in love with emojis for a strange reason.

When players hit a winner (or even just get the point) and they immediately spin around to look toward their box with a look like "I killed that one, didn't I!!" Accompanied by the requisite clenched fist, of course. A lot of players do it, but Halep and Sinner immediately come to mind.

Nearly all stares of players to their boxes, whatever their reason, are annoying.
I get tired just watching this! Can't be good for his game, whatever is left of it lately. Waste of energy.

Bumping this thread because Coric's ball bounce with the frame of the racket on serve drives me crazy.
