The book on Sebastien Grosjean: Don't hit it to his forehand, which is quite strong, and don't hit it right at his stomach, because that's where he keeps his second racket. Actually, the flying implement came from Nicholas Kiefer, who chucked it at Grosjean in an effort to distract him in their Australian Open quarterfinal match. It worked. Grosjean hit his volley into the net, and the umpire, controversially, didn't punish Kiefer, who won in five sets.
