Left Back Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Something that was annoying me throughout the game. Seemed like after every service when the ball passed the net you could hear a noise and I was expecting a let call that never came. Anyone know what the noises were all about? 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it was the whip of their pony tails getting picked up by the mics at the back of the court. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed it too. They said in commentary that a lot of the calls are automated in the US Open - is it some click to indicate to the player receiving the serve that the ball has cleared the net without touching it? Actually that seems quite outlandish when I read it back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually that seems quite outlandish when I read it back. I'm pretty sure the ball isn't actually hitting the net, as it is unlikely it would be happening virtually every serve. Just some weird sound effect or echo. f**k knows. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you’re not confrontational or argumentative on this thread. I also don’t wish to even try to provoke you into it but I do think you’re incredibly naive. I don’t want to sidetrack this into a Scotland/England thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
