Should be considered as important to global tennis history as the likes of the 'big three', Borg, Connors, Becker, Court, Graf, Navratilova, Williams et al. Entertainment is as vital to sport as achievement.
A man who recognised he would never be the greatest tennis player, so became the greatest tennis entertainer instead. And THAT is how you grow the sport, while carving your own niche. What a great man.
We have the odd player that plays with the occasional bit of flair and fun, such as Bublik at Wimbledon this year, even Kyrgios gives it a go, and we have some different characters such as Medvedev, and Rublev who throws himself at balls. Jabeur who is another crowd favourite seems to enjoy herself on occasion Unfortunately idiots like McEnroe complain about the 'disrespect' shown by underarm serves and flamboyant shots. Tennis has to retain some character or it's going to become turgid and boring beyond saving. They're just machines now.
To see somebody who loves what they do and bring such pleasure to everybody watching is a true gift. Such a joy watching this man bring joy to so many.
My godsons just started to get into tennis with me and call Bahrami “Grandpa Tennis”, which is one of the highest compliments they can give, and that title is 100% deserved.
Profissionais envelhecem com muito orgulho nos seus esportes que se dedicaram a vida toda por ela! Mas o jeito gracioso e alegre dentro deles com seus companheiros,é sempre uma carisma e a plateia adora🤣🤣🤣🤙🤙🤙 E que esses momentos sejam imortais nos espertes e se possível,mostrar nos telões nos intervalos das partidas,seria uma grande oportunidade de relembrar grandes ídolos e dar uma boa gargalhada né 😉🤙
만수르 바라니 라는 프랑스와 이란국적을 가진 은퇴한 67세 테니스선수입니다. 한때 프로테니스선수로 활동하다가 현역에서 은퇴해서도 현역때 코미칼한 행동을 그리워하는 팬들을 위해.... 이벤트성 경기에 나와 세계적으로 알려진 탑선수들과 경기를 하며 재미를 제공하고 70다된 나이에도 노익장을 과시하는 코믹테니스의 전설.
Im sure this man was an inspiration to some of the tennis stars of today. He is a legend & his reaction time 4 his age is phenomenal. This is like watching the skill of a super experienced tennis player, but with the showmanship of a harlem globetrotter.
Was bistvdu für ein narr, ein herrlicher und fantastischet tennisspieler. Danke nochmsls, für diese herrlichen sportmomente. Du musst vieles erlebt haben. Leidrr werden diese momente jetzt erst bekannt. Lieber jetzt als nie. 😂😂😂😂
It's so criminal I knew Ivan Lendl, Bjorn Borg, Boris Becker, Agassi, Graf, Navratilova, Sampras, Sabatini,... And only now I see a true tennis legend.
