currently, the serve ritual (starting at the baseline) is:
1. ball bounce with butt pick
2. tug left sleeve
3. tug right sleeve
4. touch nose
5. push hair behind left ear
6. touch nose
7. push hair behind right ear
8. bounce ball 4-7 times
9. serve
with all of that he normally gets a time violation warning every 1 or 2 matches, but amazingly he gets it all done faster than a couple years ago when there was no enforcement of the time rule.
if he's still playing 5 years from now it'll be pretty awesome watching him try to fit a 20 step routine into the time limits.

He is grabbing his shorts around the crotch now too.
