Wimbledon Extreme Rules:

Ace Race:

Any time a player serves an ace, you can bet to finish your drink before the next point starts. If you manage to do so, every other player has to take a sip. If you fail, you take a shot.

Tequila Tiebreak:

Every player has to bet who wins the Tiebreak. The losers take a shot (of Tequila)
