Twitter allows birthdays, ANZAC day and haircuts all to be celebrated on social media just like Cruz Hewitt’s recent trim, mirroring the looks of his father.

If you follow Ash Barty, Jarmila Gajdosova and/or Nick Kyrgios you probably would have wished them a happy birthday.

The birthday love for our Aussie tennis players dominated the Twittersphere this week. Even Nick’s mum got in on the action.

ANZAC Day is a time to reflect and remember those who have fought and are currently fighting for our country. The Aussie tennis community certainly payed their respects.


Sam Groth was the ultimate good Samaritan during the week, raising money for terminally ill and permanently disabled people all over Australia. How? Serving down 150km/h rockets continuously for 30 minutes directly into the body of stuntman Scotty Gregory.


Back to business and it seemed like everyone fled the country to what we assume play tennis?

While unfortunately Ben Mitchell is going nowhere.

And neither is Dasha by the looks of things…


Meanwhile James Duckworth is watching an Australian sketch comedy TV series and chasing mosquitoes.

And Matt Ebden and Daria Gavrilova now consider themselves world-wide food ambassadors.

Finally it wouldn’t be a ‘Social Serve’ without an obligatory #selfie. This week’s winners: Storm Sanders (@stormcsanders) AND Jessica Moore (@jessmoore16)
