Wait...

I'm sitting here watching the Safin/Baghdatis match - how come Baghdatis doesn't bounce the ball between his legs before the serve anymore?

Granted, I haven't seen footage of any of his matches for well over six months, but this was always interesting to me.

Anyone know when he stopped, or if this is a new wrinkle for our favorite Cypriot?

They're both catching the ball after let serves though, and I've seen both of them flipping the ball with their feet after it was called out - very fancy!

the commentators mentioned he doesn't do it anymore

apparently because he matured a bit now that there is more pressure

their words......

Think he said he copied Federer who was probably the first to do this. Even Fed had stopped doing this, so I guess Marcos had to eventually.....

I think I saw him do that at least once in his first round match.
