Weird stuff in Bogota!
Sara Errani, the 2012 French Open runner-up, and former world no.5 is not able to serve anymore!
The Italian is currently playing the tournament in Bogota where she is hitting the headlines, not for the fact that she reached the quarters, but because she needs to serve underarm after she committed 18 double faults per match in 3 consecutive rounds. (stats 1st match, 2nd match, 3rd match)
Sara Errani’s underarm serve
These stats are so depressing that the Italian decided to use the underarm serve almost 60% of the times. That’s even weirder to notice that she managed to reach the last 8 in Colombia as a lucky loser and to defeat the world no.182 Bibiane Schoofs 6-2 6-1 in the second round “without her serve.”
Nasty comments from the social media
Needless to say, fans and reporters around the world were not impressed, and many nasty comments were posted on Twitter.
This is really not nice from a pro-player. I am not even sure I have seen this watching beginners, let alone intermediate players, let alone pro players.
I am sorry for the insults, but it's a bit too much
