For me, Goran Ivanišević’s serve is the most thrilling to watch—especially during his 2001 Wimbledon miracle run. That lefty slider wide on the ad side? Unreturnable on grass. He’d regularly hit spots the size of a teacup, and when he was ‘on’, it felt like he could ace anyone blindfolded. His motion wasn’t textbook—that exaggerated knee bend and racket drop looked almost awkward—but the results were terrifying. Even Agassi, the best returner ever, said returning Goran’s serve was like ‘guessing in a dark room’.
What seals it for me is the drama. That wild card Wimbledon win, serving under insane pressure match after match? Legendary stuff. He didn’t have Federer’s all-around game, but pure serving? I’d pick peak Goran over anyone.
Roger Federer's jeu service isn't just a stroke—it's a masterpiece. The way he floats into position, that effortless toss, and the whip of his wrist make it look like he's conducting an orchestra rather than playing tennis. I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve rewatched his 2009 Wimbledon final against Andy Roddick, where his serve was practically untouchable. What’s wild is how he disguises it; no elaborate windup, just pure precision. And it’s not just power—his slice serve out wide on the deuce court is a thing of beauty, bending like a banana away from right-handers. Even now, retired, you’ll see clips of his service motion used in coaching drills. It’s the gold standard.
Then there’s Pete Sampras, who basically turned the serve into a weapon of mass destruction in the '90s. His second serve was arguably more terrifying than his first—he’d crank it up to 120mph with topspin, leaving guys like Agassi flat-footed. But Federer edges him out for me because of the artistry. Sampras was a cannon; Federer was a scalpel. And let’s not forget how clutch Fed’s serve was in tiebreaks. That 2017 Australian Open run? At 35, he was still pulling out aces on championship points like it was nothing.
If we’re talking pure dominance, I’d actually give it to John Isner. Yeah, he’s not as graceful as Federer or as iconic as Sampras, but the numbers don’t lie—14,470 aces and counting. His serve is like a cheat code; at 6’10”, he’s basically serving downhill. Remember that insane 70-68 fifth set at Wimbledon against Mahut? Isner held serve for 11 straight hours. That’s not just skill, it’s robotic consistency. His kick serve bounces over most players’ shoulders, and good luck reading his toss—it’s the same whether he’s going flat or spinning it into the corner.
What’s crazy is how underrated his second serve is. Most big servers crumble under pressure, but Isner’s percentage points actually go up in tiebreaks. Still, I’ll admit his game lacks the finesse of Federer’s or the big-stage legacy of Sampras. He’s more of a one-trick pony, but damn, what a trick.

Life was never easy for Liam. Being a top scholar at an elite high school already came with its own battles — the bullies, the gap between his world and everyone else's, and the constant pressure of holding everything together on his own. But when his scholarship falls short of covering his tuition, he is left with one option he never saw coming and never wanted. Which was…tutoring Ken— the most arrogant, mischievous, and insufferable guy in school — who also happens to be effortlessly hot and everything Liam was never supposed to want.
But at the same time, everything he never knew he needed.
One stolen moment leads to another, and before Liam can make sense of any of it, he finds himself realizing that this same guy — his worst enemy — gave him the first kiss of his life. And the first orgasm he had ever felt wasn't his own imagination.
He told himself it was just one time, but the truth was that it was never just one time. Because wanting Ken comes with a price Liam never saw coming — and the more he tries to walk away, the deeper he gets pulled in. As forbidden as it all looks, Liam wants Ken all to himself. He is ready to risk everything for what his body desires and what his heart refuses to let go of.
Because if their love is a crime — then he is willing to be ‘wanted.’

Julian Vale—the undefeated actuarial prodigy—finally lost. In an international match, he got taken down by an intern who had just come back from overseas.
The story blew up that same day.
Reporters swarmed the training room entrance.
"Ms. Clermont, Mr. Vale once said if anyone beat him even once, he'd marry her. Now that he lost to an intern, what do you think?"
"Ms. Clermont, we heard the intern is his ex from overseas. Did you know?"
My head buzzed. I thought about the five years I spent with Julian.
I gave everything every match—and never beat him.
I used to think he was just respecting the game. Thought I just wasn't good enough.
Not until today—when he threw the match to that intern.
That's when it clicked. The girl he wanted to marry was never me.
I faced the mics and forced a smile.
"That match was rigged."
"Arms up baby, let me play with you. Have you ever been played, Allen?" Her voice was raspy, her breath fanned my ear.
She took my wrists and wrapped my silk tie on it, she was straddling me. Her pink perky nipples teased my face, making me let out another moan.
"Lou baby, just ride me alre..." she shut me up by kissing me hard.

Jeu service in tennis is such a cool term—it basically refers to when a player is serving to win the game. It’s that high-pressure moment where every serve feels like it could tip the scales. I love watching how players handle it—some go for a risky ace, others play it safe with a spin-heavy second serve. The tension is real, especially in close matches where one double fault or a killer return can change everything.
What fascinates me is how different players approach their 'jeu service.' Federer, for example, had this effortless precision, while someone like Kyrgios might throw in an underarm serve just to mess with the opponent’s head. It’s not just about power; placement and mental games matter too. I’ve seen matches where a player’s entire momentum shifts because they nailed—or flubbed—this critical phase. Makes you appreciate how much strategy lurks behind what seems like a simple serve.
Jeu service is absolutely pivotal in tennis because it sets the tone for the entire point. When I watch matches, the server has this incredible advantage—they control the pace, the spin, and even the opponent's positioning. A strong first serve, like the ones Roger Federer used to nail down, can outright win points without giving the other player a chance to react. But it’s not just about power; placement matters just as much. A well-angled serve can pull the receiver wide, opening up the court for an easy follow-up shot.
Then there’s the mental game. Holding serve consistently builds pressure on the opponent. If they know you rarely drop your service games, they start feeling the weight of every mistake on their own serve. That’s why players like Serena Williams or Novak Djokovic focus so much on this aspect—it’s their safety net. Even when their groundstrokes aren’t firing, a reliable serve keeps them in the match. And let’s not forget tiebreaks, where every serve feels like a mini-battle. The ability to stay calm and execute under that pressure? That’s what separates the greats from the rest.
The rules for the serve in tennis are pretty detailed, but once you get the hang of them, they become second nature. First off, you've got to stand behind the baseline, between the center mark and the sideline—no stepping over until you've hit the ball. The serve has to go diagonally into the opponent's service box, and if it doesn't land in, it's a fault. You get two attempts; if you miss both, it's a double fault, and you lose the point. Oh, and you can't walk or run while serving—your feet have to stay planted until after contact.
Another big rule is the toss. You've got to throw the ball up with your hand—no using the racket or any other trick. The ball has to be struck before it hits the ground, and you can't let it bounce. If the ball clips the net but still lands in the correct service box, it's called a let, and you get to retake the serve without penalty. But if it lands out or hits the net and doesn't make it over, that's a fault. The serve is such a crucial part of the game, and mastering these rules can really give you an edge.
