Apparently Murray is not aware of the curse of the tweener: if you successfully hit one, you lose the tournament. Or maybe he figured it didn’t count since it was a front facing tweener. Or maybe he thought the bad juju of the first one would be cancelled out by the second one. Like a double negative. I suppose one of those reasonings worked, since he did win the title. Either that or he’s cursed himself forever from winning Wimbledon. Cheeky…

[...] surreality: Andy Murray hits two (two!) tweeners in win over [...]
Tennis News 24/7
“Tweeners” are horrible. Awkward and ugly, and even the name is nauseating.
I guess some people are just impressed by the flashiness, the same way some people are impressed by fake gold medallions and bling.
I feel like the only time it’s ok to hit a tweener is during an exhibition. Against a player in a real match, it’s showboating at best, and disrespectful to your opponent at worst.
