Amazing: This Athlete Just Broke An Oddly Specific And Completely Unheard Of Record

Another incredible day for the game of Tennis. Up and coming star Domantas Sabes cemented his name in the annals of a particular subsection of history by shattering a morbidly specific, highly obscure record. ⠀

“It’s definitely humbling to have achieved something no other player has,” said Sabes during his postgame interview as he popped a 2008 bottle of Laurent-Perrier Harmony Champagne Demi-Sec. “But I’m here to win, not to chase after impossibly detailed, highly pedantic milestones.”⠀

According to ESPN, the record-breaking moment occurred when Sabes registered his sixth double fault serve of the match while hitting the ball just above a 126.985 declaration spin rate. A truly original accomplishment. ⠀

This makes him the first American-born Lithuanian player to perform such a feat in a match during a 20% chance of precipitation. Commentators Chris Fowler and Bill Macatee officially declared the record broken after a 15-minute game delay allowed for officials to double-check that all qualifications had been met. ⠀
