In this particular article that I just read about tennis's first major of the year in Melbourne there was a lot of different techniques that I noticed. The way the author used the inhumane circumstances the players were playing in was an interesting way to put things into perspective. People are more impressed of individuals who put themselves out there in the worst conditions possible adding facts like the temperatures it reached. He uses words such as grueling, breath taking and emphatic to convey the outstanding physique these tennis players are demonstrating. This author also uses a good mix of factual information to put everything in a historical context but keeps the article riveting by using vivid descriptions to depict the players excruciating pain they are enduring. It takes a lot of imagination to compare Federer's movement with Mozart's music or Nadal's strength with a raging bull always ready to fight. These different writing techniques he uses, tying in the weather, history, and potent descriptions make Peter Bodo's writing so loved and appreciated.

Just what I'm looking for Jesse. You've obviously looked at analyzing writing before. Nice work.
