Did you know the Mens' & Womens' tennis balls were different?
Many observers were surprised to hear that the ATP and WTA tours do not use the same balls, so what exactly is the difference between the two, and was Andy Murray justified in being so exasperated?
First of all, the two balls are the same in size and pressure, but in most events, including Miami, men use extra-duty felt, which slows the overall speed, while women use regular-duty felt.
The balls also have a different logo on them, which alerted Murray to the fact that something was up.
