Top tennis stars Gilles Simon of France, John Isner of USA and Robby Ginepri of USA got some hands (and legs) on experience with Thai martial arts at the PTT Thailand Open 2009 tennis tournament yesterday.
The three players were treated to an up close demonstration of sword fighting and Muay Thai before donning their boxing shorts and getting amongst the action themselves. The three received lessons in the Thai kick-boxing from Olympic champion Somjit Jongjorhor, much to the delight of the local crowd.
Ginepri, who is known to have a passion for the traditional martial art, displayed some excellent moves in his boxing bout with Jongjorhor.
Simon, Isner and Ginepri all play their second round matches at the tournament today.
