That’s not accurate at all. The ball bounces higher on clay and retains more spin after the bounce. Clay rewards point construction, variety, & fitness (only because rallies last longer). All the best players grow up playing on clay because it requires players to have a complete game.
🚨🎙️Thierry Henry on Chelsea’s denied penalty appeals in the FA Cup Final, SLAMS VAR: 💣🤯
“If those same decisions happen against Manchester City at the other end, people are calling it corruption for a week straight. Chelsea got robbed today.
The first one on João Pedro before halftime was a clear penalty for me. Khusanov doesn’t even try to play the ball, he just goes through the back of him. Then in the second half, Doku clips Caicedo driving into the box and somehow VAR still stays quiet.
And the handball? We’ve seen those given all season. Enzo’s cross strikes O’Reilly’s arm and suddenly everyone wants to pretend the rules are different in a cup final.
That’s three huge moments in one match and Chelsea got nothing from any of them. No proper VAR intervention, no consistency, no urgency from the officials.
If Arsenal or Liverpool were treated like that in a final, football wouldn’t stop talking about it for months. Chelsea didn’t just lose the FA Cup today, they were officiated out of it.”

Achilles injuries are usually non contact. You’ve obviously never played or paid attention to high level tennis, the ball flying 100+ mph, with massive top spin. Not to mention clay courts or grass courts which can cause erratic bounces. Tennis players have superior balanced builds, with a massive focus on lower body and core strength. Along with flexibility and balance. Tennis demands full body equilibrium, balance, and strength.
The notion that tennis doesn’t push or stress the body enough to cause this type of injury is nonsense, it has to do with the athlete and the specific circumstance leading up to the injury.
On Mar 24th, Alexander Kazanowski, a young 25 year-old father, was brutally beaten and died from severe blunt force trauma to the head.
The national media never covered it for obvious reasons. Police are still searching for these suspects.
We shouldn't have to live like this.
