Video - A player surprises in Challenger with an unprecedented technique

At the Hersonissos Challenger (Greece), local player Evangelos Kypriotis made waves on social media thanks to his rather unique playing technique.

The Greek, ranked 1943rd in the world, faced Marcello Serafini, ranked 525th globally, in the first round of the tournament's qualifiers.

During this match, Kypriotis stood out with his one-handed backhand, as well as his forehand, which he hits with a two-handed grip (see video below). A rather unique playing style that wasn't enough to win the match, lost with a score of 7-6, 6-1.
