In her fourth-round Australian Open tennis match, Petra Kvitova had an embarrassing moment when she completely missed the ball on an overhead return attempt against Ana Ivanovic.
After the swing and the miss, the ball ended up hitting her in the lower leg. At least when you or I whiff on a return like that, only a few people may see it, unlike the millions of people that are going to see this highlight (or should I say, lowlight).
In the end, however, Kvitova won the match, so it just goes to show that no matter how bad you look, if you persevere, you can overcome your mistakes.
