Is it me or was Mima all over Dima for a bit?

 

[jawien]

I bet, the video might have more hits than the final match in the end ... ; )

This is all kinds of awesome!

Just mind-bugling, when I think about all the variations of arcs Ito can create with short pips on BH. That's probably why many of Dima's backhand rallies go to the net. I'm guessing he's not too used to playing against short pips.

She killed him in the practice mini match

Also she seemed to be quite affectionate

Nice! Loved the video!

Video of the year!

It seems Dima got bored at the end of the video but good service receive from MIMA .

Interesting to know how the two of them practicing together came about. They both seem to be enjoying the knock, particularly Mima Ito. I like the bit where she does her classic tactic. Takes him very wide to backhand, then punches down the line and then back to the wide backhand. If you watch her in a match its a tactic she uses very often and its so effective.

Itovtcharov

Itovcharov ... : ) Yep, apart from the indirect repercussions made to the international scene of tt when Mrs Jenny finds out about the video (here are the dangers of staying late for service practicing) ... ; ))

Would you guys imagine any form of competition or mixed events for men and women? The video and the interaction between them is so funny. Or is this just the MimaDima magic ... ; )
