Falls and slips normally spell the end of a point, but not for Jan-Lennard Struff.  In Halle on Monday, the German managed to come back and win a point against Roberto Bautista Agut after taking a tumble on the grass.

Struff slipped after sending the ball down the line, but sprang right back up and sealed the rally with a short volley. The world No. 67's tenacity wasn't enough to win the match as eventually lost to the Spaniard, 6-4, 6-1.

The grass season is in full swing, and with it will come plenty more dramatic mid-point dives and falls, like these ones:
