Then & Now: Grunt face of the Pro

I saw these pictures and was amazed how the look doesn't change. I think I should have practiced making faces more when I was younger.

Couldn't find a grunt face, because you know, Rogie doesn't grunt.

He actually has the best grunt of all - occasionally on the second serve if the roof is closed and everyone is quiet.

I had trouble thinking of what to title the thread without it having euphemistic undertones. I think the focused anticipation fits nicely. Its all the sort of face that people make their whole life without thinking about.

Yeah, there was a short video on tennis channel I think, they said he switched to a one hand to have a better chance at Wimbledon. He played with some Kneissl at the time.
