Old man beating Kvitova

[tennisaddict]

 

[Soianka]

He beat her with a wooden racquet

 

[Nadal_Django]

This was funny.lol

 

[Mr.Lob]

LOL. Moved pretty good for a guy using a cane. Nice punk by
Thomas.

 

[Shaolin]

That was great

 

[Boxton1611]

Lol even post-prime not warmed up berdych wearing full makeup and wearing cords and a waistcoat playing with a wooden racket can take WTA no.7 Kvitova to the woodshed.

In all seriousness: do we think he would beat her in a competitive match if she was actully trying?

Yes.

He would cream her daily had they decided to play any comp tennis.

 

[Pistol10]

Feeling sorry for him & the others. They spent hours making this look to fool her...but she was the one fooling them all .

 

[Johnny505]

I was too busy admiring Kvitova in leggings

 

[Mainad]

Lol...I knew it was someone in disguise but I didn't expect it to be Berdych! Maybe he's planning his comeback for the WTA tour?

Serena will overpower him then, and he will retire.

What fun, that made my day

[jm1980]

Don't get someone who is nearly 2m tall (6' 5") to play an old man!

What kind of old man with a wooden racquet hits open stance forehands and double handled backhands, anyway?

Petra recognized him immediately

 

[cknobman]

I think he'd be willing to cream her daily regardless of if they were playing tennis

 

[uscwang]

How was this not on Stepanek's farewell celebration?
Oh, never mind.

Couldn't agree more!

 

[Ann]

From the look on her face when they first met I think she knew this wasn't an actual old man but it was fun anyway.

 

[Deleted member 369227]

You didn't have patience to watch 3 minute video to the end, and instead asked someone to tell you who is this guy?

 

[TimHenmanATG]

It was obviously a fake ''old man'' from the get go.

It appears that modern-day techniques which attempt to make younger people look like geriatrics haven't advanced at all since the days of the 1960s and 1970s British sitcoms.

 

[tennis_pro]

The ultimate proof that a male player is better than a female player.

 

[Deleted member 77403]

If they wanted an old man to beat her, why didn't they just get Federer...he would probably look even older than that fraud playing against Kvitova here.

Didn't want to get injured before Christmas exho.

True True...while promoting alcohol

LOL.

No amount of makeup could disguise that mug!

Hmm...

 

[Nostradamus]

So is Thomas Berdych fully back now and Ready to win the Australian open 2019 ? If he can play this crazy good with Tiny wooden racket,,, just imagine what he can do with real graphite racket with bigger head ?

 

[NuBas]

What did she call him? I knew it was a disguise quarter of the way through the video but I'm not sure how Kvitova knew, maybe she knew after he hit some aces.

Berdych seems like a really cool good guy.

 

[Tennease]

Tomas can win a Slam with that wooden racquet. C'mon Tomas you can do it.

 

[NuBas]

They should do this again and try to fool someone like Federer

Whats with your avatar?

I'm in a Pepe mood.

"Nice to meet you Tomas", that's what she said I think.

Maybe it was in her native tongue cause I couldn't quite understand.

Berdych will really look like a old man then. Roger will cream him every point.

 

[mralexander]

It is unfortunate not to see Tomas Berdych not playing on the tour, I really hope that he will make a return in 2019, he is definitely in the same league as the top 4, just in the shadow

Berdych will Wimbledon 2019, mark my words

easy there tiger, berdych is an excellent player and you gotta love the game! no matter who is playing.

 

[mralexander]

I really hope he does, I think he is the player the most deserving of a grand slam of all... he has been literally the most consistent player under the shadows of the big 4. Him and Wawrinka, except wawrinka broke through and got 3 GS which is amazing.

 

[roundiesee]

The service motion was what gave it away

 

[mralexander]

he has a huge server, probably one of the biggest on tour, overall I really like his technique and style, he is a big hitter.

That and the FH stroke. It was made especially clear when he wasn’t fully accelerating his swing. It’s really a beautiful FH he has.

Petra: "I realized during the first couple of rallies that it has to be somebody famous, because in order to play tennis like that, you have to be really good." she explained. "I was thinking the whole time who it could be, i even noticed the mask. I recognized Tomas during the handshake at the net. I am proud of myself" (sidenote: they know eachother reasonably well, it helps that Tomas is about 6'5 and has a distinct voice).

 

[Tennease]

Very wise of them to use Tomas instead of Suresh. Not only Kvitova would've been bageled 1 and a half set, she would've been scared and run away the moment she saw the infamous drop volley.
