And yet despite that, she barely flinches. Hard as nails
Working as a ballboy or ballgirl (ballperson?) at the tennis must be great craic, in particular if you love the sport as you can get up close and personal with a few of your idols and maybe pick up a few tips on the game.
For one ballgirl at the Australian open today, she got slightly too close to the action, or perhaps the action got too close to her, as a return from Florian Mayer off a David Ferrer serve struck her straight in the face.
Bar a quick reaction as she gets hit, she’s straight back to business afterwards, no messing. A quick thumbs up from Mayer, and all is right with the world again.
