What can you do when the world shuts down and governments tell you to stay in to avoid spreading a scary virus? Tennis, on social media, gives its answer. Here is how some of today’s WTA and ATP stars are coping with social distancing and Coronavirus, as they wait to take their place back on tour again and celebrate the Easter and Passover holidays.
1.Tennis celebrated #SiblingDay and on this day the Americans have a lot to be proud of.
2. The Roger Federer volley challenge was all the rage on social media last week – how about this top-notch entry from Poland’s Iga Swiatek?
3. Kristie Ahn keeps churning out the hits on TikTok…
4.Speaking of siblings, check out Marat Safin and baby Dinara. And what’s up with that monkey???!
5. Next up, Daria Kasatkina performs an ode to her trusty Tecnifibre racquet.
6. Garbiรฑe Muguruza rocks the spin cycle.
7. Do not try this if you only have one iPhone. Mike and Bob Bryan show us another, lesser known, use for a smartphone.
8.Andy Murray and Kim are rocking the 100 volley challenge and they’re calling out everyone in the tennis community to join in.
9. Nole and Jelena were quick to reply. So who did it better?
10. Caroline Wozniacki retired from tennis but boy does she ever look ready for a career as a professional jump roper. Or how about extreme athlete?
11. A touching message from Wimbledon, narrated by none other than Roger Federer. United in HOPE.
12. This looks fun! Aliaksandra Sasnovich is geared up for some kayaking…
13. Kim Clijsters comeback season was thrown for a loop by the Coronavirus but at least she took part in the 100 volley challenge with her husband…
14. Happy Easter from Bob Bryan and family!
15. High marks for creativity for our final post, it’s the lovely Roberta Vinci, here to tell us all to stay home.
