- 11:49:08: If this feels like I am not giving enough time, please let me know.
- 11:49:31: Q4. Where is the node of the first harmonic on the racquet stringbed?
- 11:51:25: LOL! @sidvee where is your brain?
- 11:51:32: RT @siddev18: #Indecent #Gross RT @ashwines @kweezzz from the opponent's behind?
- 11:52:40: One answer right from @Sujesh_Kumar and LOL RT @felinetendency @kweezzz at the sweetspot
- 11:53:50: i'll move on.
- 11:54:16: @sidvee first timer! sorry..i'll try to avoid #Unkweezzz
- 11:54:33: RT @Sujesh_Kumar: @kweezzz ...The sweet spot on your racquet's stringbed where impact with the ball does not produce uncomfortable vibra ...
- 11:55:10: LOL @cornerd @kweezzz somewhere in the head of the Racquet for sure.
- 11:55:38: @felinetendency @Vinodh_V @rohitnarvekar elaborate on sweetspot!
- 11:56:12: @felinetendency got it right!
- 11:56:48: Q5. Your forehand just cleared the centre of the net by a good distance. Topspin, sidespin or flat shot?
- 11:57:52: Not sure if its a compliment? RT @keshavathreya: @kweezzz you sound just like rachel from friends
- 12:00:55: i knew some people would say lob. but its not one of the options. @GRG11 @aajays @rhymedpeanuts @felinetendency @R_Zed
- 12:02:08: the previously mentioned tweeple got the answer. also @aajays the questions get better when i move away from tennis technicalities. *blush
- 12:02:54: @techrsr too got it.
- 12:03:22: the answer is topspin because you need to get the ball to drop in. flat shot might work only if you are tall. spin works for all!
- 12:06:31: oh @gradwolf got it way before @techrsr. sorry mate.
- 12:06:44: also sorry for the delay. internet died for a moment.
- 12:07:31: who in today's tennis still uses a single-handed backhand effectively? Super easy question.
- 12:09:20: first three to answer get points coz its too easy @fibonaccifreak @felinetendency @vishal_c all got federer early.
- 12:09:45: Q7. Tennis has been an Olympic Sport since?
- 12:10:57: @vishal_c yea i know..and if i said that, i'll get murdered but gasquet needs to up his ranking a bit more..
- 12:11:55: Awesome. Some people got both men and women right in Q 6. @vishal_c and @felinetendency
- 12:13:12: @kamasudra too got Henin right.
- 12:14:52: @fibonaccifreak you came the closest to the right answer. just one of the years is wrong.
- 12:15:29: @techrsr i went with the most commonly accepted answer. its not quite comparison
- 12:15:56: LOL! seriously? RT @ashwines: @kweezzz since the dress code changed from motherblade pants to skirts
- 12:16:59: oh no...have i started a gasquet vs federer backhand war?
- 12:17:55: Alright. some of you got the 1988 right but in actuality it started in 1898 and for some reason, stopped in 1924.
- 12:18:32: here is some unnecessary information. the first man to win the olympic gold medal 1898 was from the audience who suddenly decided to join!
- 12:20:03: oh my god! big boo boo. sorry @fibonaccifreak you were right. its 1896. why on earth would there be olympics in 1898.
- 12:20:45: ahaha...see i love humiliation. moving on. Q8. What are the two shots in tennis that have the same movement?
- 12:23:18: @aajays @_sharken @felinetendency got the right answers. its the serve and the smash or overhead.
- 12:24:47: @jayeshpoojary you only got 1896 right. it stopped in 1924 and restarted in 1988
- 12:25:03: @vishal_c what happened?
- 12:25:32: the updates here are a little slow?
- 12:26:46: They use the same hand movement. Most players are taught to serve and they add on to smash on their own based on their capabilities.
- 12:27:46: Q9. What is the sequence of serve in a 7-point tie break?
- 12:28:20: User Player A Player B to show it.
- 12:28:54: @vishal_C oh. does my answer, um answer your question?
- 12:30:18: @anandhsub @shre_s @aajays got it right...the rest are a little late..sorry.
- 12:30:41: Q10. Which Grand Slam uses a tie break in a deciding set?
- 12:32:31: @krtgrphr @visha_c and @abhility got the answers right first...sorry to the rest of you..
- 12:33:11: next series of questions are called preferred shots. so hope you know your players well. sorry to use only popular players. catering to all
- 12:34:07: Q.11 You=Djokovic and have drawn your opponent to the net while still between baseline and service line. Lob or passing shot down the line?
- 12:35:17: oh oops right...sheesh...i am turning into a wreck and skipping class. i intend to get this kweezzz thing right by the end of it atleast.
- 12:36:20: why am i getting names? i asked for a shot.
- 12:38:13: not you sweetie @vvyes others were giving me names..
- 12:38:50: so @vvyes answered first and @GRG11 gave me a tongue in cheek answer.
- 12:39:54: what does this mean? RT @oneblackcoffee: I think I should do a cellphone @kweezzz. What say?
- 12:40:35: LOL! so mean. he is great at lob. RT @ShyamYag: @kweezzz lob over the baseline to lose te point
- 12:41:39: What do you people think? RT @oneblackcoffee: @kweezzz Host a cellphone related quiz
- 12:42:11: Ok time's up Q12. You are Nadal, its Wimbledon and Andy Roddick is serving. Backhand slice or backhand crosscourt?
- 12:43:50: correct answers from @aajays @vvyes @Shre_S. It is slice. Andy is a big server. Rafa will slice to remove power from the ball.
- 12:44:31: Q13. Federer rallying with Djokovic. What shots are they using? The three options for either player are Flat, With Spin or Versatile.
- 12:46:12: The answer from @aajays is half right.
- 12:46:56: some are giving me one answer. i need both players? or do you mean both play the same shots?
- 12:47:19: :( better job next time? RT @kurisad: @kweezzz let me know once the tennis workshop is over...eagerly waiting for the tennis quiz!!!

- 12:50:27: RT @vvyes: @kweezzz Flat on the f/h, spin on the b/h for Fed, flat for Djoker who also closes his eyes "if it's out, it's out" types
