There’s been some great moments on the tennis court throughout the 2014 pro season. But the times when the players put down their rackets and get a little silly remind us why we enjoy following professional tennis so much. From their social media accounts, WTA and ATP players have shared some of their most exciting moments this year — MyTennisLessons now reveals some of our favorites (in no particular order).

Caption: Only you @carowozniacki can find food at 3:30 An…. Miss u…
Why I love it: This year has been all about “Carena” and I’m a huge fan of their friendship. What girl hasn’t given a shoutout to her bestie over social media when she’s missing their late-night snack runs? A stateside Serena showed her gal pal some Insta-love while Wozniacki was playing in the Pan Pacific Open in Tokyo in September. Even professional athletes need their Doritos (or rather the Japanese version of Doritos.)

Caption: the hat says it all
Why I love it: I had to include one more picture of the 2014 U.S. Open winner and runner-up because they’re that great. Sometimes I take sassy pictures with my friends, too, except I’m not standing on the court watching the Heat defeat the Pacers in Game 6 after I’ve been knocked out of the French Open. “Willzniacki” is a totally down-to-earth duo, yet definitely cooler than you.

Andy’s Caption: With @djokernole playing at Madison Square Garden #selfie
Nole’s Caption: Kind a cute,right? 🙂 #bnpparibasshowdown. NYC-MSG.. love it!
Why I love it: I love these matching photos from Andy and Novak’s Twitter accounts because it’s what we sorority gals like to call a “personality pic.” Andy looks completely clueless in his selfie attempt as Djokovic stares mischievously into the camera. Djoker’s photo, of course, reflects his own goofy nature … you can’t not love it. The two top players had some fun while playing an exhibition match at Madison Square Garden in March.

Caption: My most positive supporter 🙂 #JimParsons
Why I love it: From Michael Jordan to Anna Wintour, there’s a lot of A-lister tennis enthusiasts. But Genie might have scored the one of the coolest supporters in Jim Parsons, the Emmy-award winning actor of CBS’ The Big Bang Theory. When Bouchard made an unexpected run to the finals at Wimbledon this year, Parsons kept pushing back his flight home to watch her compete. Seriously cute.

Account: @DjokerNole on Twitter
Caption: Good morning from Mrs Djokovic and myself 🙂 Thank you for all the wonderful wishes #NoleFam #Happy #Belgrade
Why I love it: Did Djokovic just have the best year of his life? Between marriage, a baby, another Wimbledon title, and a no. 1 ranking to end the season, life’s been pretty great for Nole over the last several months. I love this happy photo of the fresh-faced newlyweds shortly after announcing that Jelena was expecting. Best wishes for the rest of 2014 to the Djokovic family!

Account: @MariaSharapova on Twitter
Caption: Finally got a real job @NBC #Sochi2014
Why I love it: Maria Sharapova is the ultimate cool girl. She’s done some pretty cool things this year between partnering her candy line with popular frozen yogurt chain Pinkberry to winning her second French Open. In February, Maria joined the NBC team as a news correspondent during the Sochi Olympics. I especially love the caption on this photo … as if she wasn’t already a businesswoman and one of the world’s highest-paid female athletes.

Account: @andreapetkovic on Twitter
Caption: A little teaser before the real thing- stay tuned to find out who I nominated for the #ALSIceBucketChallenge
Why I love it: Tennis pros were enthusiastic participants in the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. The always entertaining Andrea Petkovic challenged Ana Ivanovic, who in turn nominated Roger Federer. Nadal, Isner, Azarenka, Querrey and Dimitrov were among the many others who joined the cause. Check out all the pros’ ALS Challenge videos here.

Maria’s Caption: And the pic of the night…:)
Tomas’ Caption: Championfie @rogerfederer @keinishikori @DjokerNole @cilic_marin @andy_murray @stanwawrinka @milosraonic
Why I love it: These snapshots make it feel like the ATP and WTA tours are just one big happy family. Tennis players always look great on the court, but we love to see them in their Sunday best, too. In the picture on the left (I imagine) Caroline and Serena are deciding what to caption the photo they just took, while in the picture on the right (I imagine) Andy is feeling awkward in his second-ever selfie.
