Compared to other sports, the game of tennis gives rise to fewer jokes. Many of them play off the tennis term ” Love”. For example, ” Never fall for a tennis pro. He thinks love is nothing.” Or about tennis racquets. ” Why is tennis such a noisy game?. Because each player reaches a racquet( racket).” There is a good joke about Little Johnny and the two black tennis balls but it is politically incorrect and I won’t repeat it here. You can look it up yourself.
After the Wimbledon final two Sundays ago, a friend from Malaysia sent me this joke which I think deserves a wider audience.
(As you will recall), Marin Cilic had all kinds of problems with Federer’s pinpoint serving in the Wimbledon final. The following day, he went to the library and asked to borrow a book that would teach him to better handle Federer’s serve.
The librarian flatly refused Cilic’s request for the book .
” You won’t return it either”, she said.
