      Honestly, he makes contact at or below his waist so I don’t think the release should really be enforced that harshly, now if he was hitting the ball high that’d be a different stiry

      @@adamheath4599rules are rules though. Other competitors changed their serve because of this rule and don’t serve quite as well because of it. Tyson wouldn’t serve as well if he followed the rules. In ANY sport, it flies in the face of the competitive spirit to allow any player to break a rule. You have to change the rule for everyone or enforce it for everyone. But Tyson has always pushed the boundaries on his serves and honestly imo it’s bad sportsmanship and can’t be good to attract viewers. I was hesitant to watch this game as these guys are both hot heads, and after Tyson threw a fit about the ref enforcing a rule, I’m done

    So genuinely -- and I'm doing my best to not be in any way hyperbolic here -- but if the PPA rule requires the ball to both be dropped from no higher than waist level and not tossed up in any fashion, Tyson doesn't hit a single legal serve in the first five minutes I've watched of this match. Not one. Slow them down -- every single one is dropped from shoulder height at minimum, and most are released up, or at least his palm is sideways to up each time.
    His CONTACT point seems fine -- that's where I'm avoiding hyperbole. Yes, it's aggressive. Yes, it's borderline. But if you slow them down, he's at belly-button or lower height, and the paddle isn't above the wrist and all that.
    It's frankly silly. Unless I'm wrong about that particular rule. In which case, ignore this.

    • @JonTriesStuff
      @JonTriesStuff Месяц назад +1

      The one point of defense I'd give to Tyson is that he is squatted down a lot at the start which makes his torso and head much lower. It's pretty tough to determine his torso level when he's squatted down like that. Like you said, his point of contact appears legal on most and I do think it's likely he's serving a lot illegally but it's more of a grey area than at first appearance.

    • @grousehouse
      @grousehouse Месяц назад +4

      @@JonTriesStuff -- but the rule is the ball has to be dropped from hip height. If he wants to squat, he's just lowering his hips, which means he has to drop the ball from an even lower height. You can't say "my hips WOULD be here if I weren't squatting, so that's where I'll release the ball" -- it has to be at hip level. He's not close.
      His contact point seems fine. But his release point (which is a PPA-only rule, of course) is WAY too high.

      @@XxKiLLaKoop420 - it’s a PPA-specific rule that the ball must be dropped from waist/hip height. You can hear the ref tell McGuffin this after the second time he calls him on it at around the 3:20 mark.

      I wonder if his full upright position is considered and not his body position at point of contact with the ball. An official would have to make a mental mark when saying the score then the server can squat, lunge, step, scoot, hop or whatever. It is an evolving game.

      If overhead serves are allowed, John Isner will have a new career. I believe the serve is intentionally crippled in PB so players are supposed to work their way up the kitchen to earn a point. Not into new rules and stuff, but the simplest way is probable allowing only drop-serve from shoulder high.

    @jmunt Месяц назад

    Whether you agree with a rule or not, when a rule is specifically designed to nerf part of a game, and when one player is allowed break that rule and has the most powerful serve because of it, that is an unfair advantage against all the players actually following the rules. It’s like letting one pitcher use pine tar while no one else is allowed to. Rules are rules. Every sport has rules that people would rather not be there. But in NONE of them are players allowed to get away with breaking a rule so egregiously as this. Either change the rule for everyone or enforce it for everyone. This is an embarrassment to the integrity of the game.

  • @jmunt
    @jmunt Месяц назад

    I can’t continue to watch a match with a player who is allowed to blatantly break a rule that has such a large impact on the outcome of games. The ref tried, I really can’t blame him. I blame whatever culture is at play that has stripped refs of the power to stand up to a player who is popular. PPA either needs to change the rule, or set some clear boundaries for players that rules will be actually enforced and can face ejection for disrespecting a referee who is simply doing his job. Embarrassing. Imagine any other player in any other sport arguing like this, not arguing with a call that can be reviewed, but arguing that the rule itself is dumb and choosing to ignore it. Imagine a pitcher gets caught with pine tar, and the I’ll calls them out on it, and they get mad at the ump and then just use half the pine tar they were using before. That would never fly. PPA needs more respect for itself and for the integrity of competition, and both players and refs need to be told that rules will be fully enforced no matter how popular or angry a player is.
