The tennis and the cycling shots are fantastic to me. Also really love the fencing and the horse racing images

I always wondered why photographers don't just record high framerate video and then pick out the best single frames afterwards...

I'm no photographer but I imagine that limits shutter speed. I think action photographers do have modes on their cameras where they can rapid fire a bunch of shots for this reason though.
