I've been watching the tennis on BBC 1.

When they're bouncing the ball before serving, the ball noticeably 
strobes yet it's by no means the fastest it's going to move later, when 
there's no noticeable strobing at all.  Why is that?

I thought it might be the effect of the hoardings around the court which 
are electronic, but it's apparent even where the background is the court 
itself, which of course isn't.

So, what's going on please?
