Second Serve

 


Milos Raonic's wrecking ball serve commands attention, but the Canadian showed soft touch in his IPTL debut.

Nick Kyrgios had Raonic right where he wanted him, behind the baseline on the defensive, until Raonic answers with this magical forehand flick pass.

The break-point winner brought Raonic's Philippine Maverick's teammate, Serena Williams, to her feet in a standing ovation.

Kyrgios went on to win seal the Singapore Slammers', 26-24 victory over the Mavericks.



Raonic, who has grown his hair longer for his ITPL debut, calls his new look an "IPTL special edition haircut."

"Not only did I come prepared for the IPTL, I also have an IPTL special edition haircut!" Raonic said. "It’s great to be playing in the IPTL, I’ve heard wonderful things about it from players on the tour these past few months, the fun and the motivating parts with the rest of the team members, and I was really looking forward to it. It’s a good format, fans enjoy it."
