It is every tennis fan’s dream to meet their favorite players, but few get the chance to do so.
In that context, tennis ballboys/ballgirls are among the lucky few who can fulfill their cherished dreams of meeting their heroes. Not only that but being up close and observing such high quality tennis being played so close also helps them learn many things, which can help them become future tennis stars themselves.
One prime example is Roger Federer, who worked as a ballboy himself in his early days which no doubt helped him become what he is today.
But some times being a ballboy/ballgirl can get you into trouble.
Check out the following video where Novak Djokovic hit a ballgirl while serving while playing a match against Fernando Verdasco at the Madrid Open.
