i think it's when you squeeze every muscle of your body at once during an athletic rotation, to both be strong at the moment of impact and stop your core's rotation and allow something to whip and gain speed (long drive golfers, martial arts striking, a home run). i've played tennis for 30 years and i've met a lot of grunters, myself included. maybe 1 or 2 i've ever met were faking or doing it annoyingly to other players. spectators are the only ones who have a problem with it.

I think it's the most annoying thing in tennis ever! It's so ironic in a way that everyone should be quiet in a tennis match, but your opponent can grunt like a crazy no problem! Also, oftentimes, it's more moaning than actually grunting.. Don't mind the occasional grunting when maximum effort is applied. But moaning when you hit balls with 20 miles per hour? 😅 no way! Plus, you have players being so inconsistent with it. It's breakpoint, and now you grunt like Carlos Berloq😂

People who are against it are only used to the long exaggerated grunts , but the man is right in the video. For me, who has been playing for 11 years, I grunt. I tend to have one as I am loading right before I swing and then a grunt right as I swing. Let me tell you. It relieves so much pressure out of my body every time I grunt and I feel so much more relaxed which helps me gain rhythm. Mine aren’t so loud and obnoxious like others, but mine are needed or else I would be very tight when I hit.

So it has nothing to do with constipation? I figured since they only get one 3 minute break they were using it wisely. No time to poop in 3 minutes so things get jammed up 😂 Who knew 🤷♂️ breathing huh 🤔 Learn something new everyday
They should put and end to it and he is talking tripe. It's just downright bad sportmanand its very hard to listen to. I like Saba but it gets very irritating to listen to and I think it's very disrespectful to the opponent.

It’s called ‘Cheating’ by deliberately trying to continually put your opponent off. Nadal, Djokovic and co are all guilty of this unsportsmanlike tactic.

Bullshit.
