Instead of promoting the tennis pros that get all the fame on court, this commercial revolved around the ballkids that keep the game going. When I was a teenager I wanted to be a tennis pro myself and some of my sparring partner loved to be a ballkid at this tournament because they got very close to their idols this way. So I could totally feel their pride when I shot this.
