True or false? The fastest recorded tennis serve is faster than 150 mph (241 kph).
Answers
False as notorious big hitter Jon Isner holds the record for the fastest ever serve in a Davis Cup match. The American recorded a speed of 253 km/h (157.2 mph) in his victory over Bernard Tomic. This is also the fastest serve
HOPE THIS WOULD HELP!!!!
This list is not historically complete. For instance, Roscoe Tanner's serve was clocked at 153 mph at Palm Springs in 1978 during the final against Raúl Ramírez. There are also reports that Bill Tilden had a serve that was clocked at 163.3 mph but there is nothing to verify that. Also, Ellsworth Vines in the Wimbledon finals of 1932 clocked 121 mph (without Radar).Udayachand Shetty's winning serve was clocked by radar at 120 mph using a wooden racquet, at the Gilbey Gins fast serve contest held in Chicago on July 24th 1976. This qualified him to take part in the finals at the west side tennis club in Forest Hills Queens on 20th August, 1976. Colin Dibley of Australia won the event with a serve of 130 mph.
Currently, the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) does not formally recognize service speed records made in Challenger tour events due to lack of uniformity in these tournaments' radar guns (including availability or lack thereof). Nevertheless, the serve speed of 263.4 km/h (163.7 mph) recorded by Australian Sam Groth at an ATP Challenger event in Busan, South Korea in May 2012 was measured using approved equipment according to the ATP, and other data gathered appeared within a normal range. However, John Isner holds the ATP's official record for the fastest serve at 253 km/h (157.2 mph).
THANKS!
