In a hilarious turn of events, the popular tennis-based media company, Tennis Channel wrongly tagged former American tennis player, Andy Roddick in one of their posts on their official social media handle.

Tennis Channel recently posted a video where players and ex-players like Nick Kyrgios, Andy Roddick, and Jim Courier were discussing their own views on the perfect punishment for racket smashes and violations.

The Grand Slam title winner is known for his big serve and powerful strokes. He is also quite popular due to his witty and humorous nature on and off the court. Recently, he made a sarcastic comment on Tennis Channel, a tennis-based media agency that he has been working for for 3 years now.

He joked about how, after all this time, they did not know his actual handle as they wrongly tagged him in a recent video that they posted on their official social media handle.

The video was based on the discussion regarding the best punishment for the constant and never-ending issue of racket-breaking violations in the sport of tennis. Many players have lashed out against the tennis authorities for awarding penalties and fines for this violation.

In a recent discussion held by Tennis Channel, when asked about the perfect penalty or a code violation for breaking a racket in a tennis game, Australian tennis player Nick Kyrgios agreed to the concept of penalties and fines due to the viewership of the game and also said that the level of racket abuse must be acknowledged while deciding on the punishment.

The American tennis player had a different notion altogether. Andy Roddick said that it was perfectly fine as long as he was breaking his own racket and not harming anyone else in the process.

He also posted an extremely hilarious video showing other players exactly how to break a racket without harming anyone else and saving themselves from getting disqualified.
