Benneteau'll undergo an abductor surgery soon. On a positive way, he's going to be a daddy soon. Congrats Julien

The frustrating thing about this article, is that it doesn't specifically show a Becker quote saying that Novak and Roger don't like each other. We are supposed to rely on the inference of a journalist :nono

I detest this type of reporting

well, there's some Becker quotes in there. but to be honest, Becker can be a bit of a tool if you give him too much of a forum. i respect him as a former pro, but he's not a social role model by any standard.

Injured Tsonga pulled out of Halle, not a very good news just before Wimbly

Crap. Hate to hear that. Hope he is puling out just as a precaution before the big one.

Interesting interview with Novak Djokovic in today's Telegraph...

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Apparently, Stuttgart's tourney is celebrating 100th anniversary next year. They are in the process of wooing Roger to come and play there next year. I see a net-worth of increase of another 2 million bucks for him.

It's official, Boris is a delusional egomaniac! He reckons his living in Wimbledon has given property prices a boost :nono I didn't really believe his nonsense about Roger and Novak, but this absolutely confirms it. Wimbledon Village is hedge fund central and a host of celebrities have lived there for years. Get a clue Boris, you're small time there :cover

He's an idiot and an ignorant p***k also. We were at the O2 Arena for the 2010 WTF and he was on crutches at the time and was accompanied by 2 security guards and bumped into my girlfriend (nudged off her shoulder) at the time and didn't even apologize. Another case of liked him as a player but he's a total clown. Same goes with J-Mac and his commentary. Great player but wish he'd stfu with the dumb comments.

Nieminen "ll retire after Stockholm open 2015, he's 33 and his best ranking was N°13. I liked this player a lot

I think his wife is a top level badminton player (probably more accomplished than himself).

Amazing what another GS win can do to you? Stan poses naked for ESPN Body Magazine (not yet out). Now that he is divorced, I am sure he will get lot of fan proposals after this issue comes out.

I haven't seen it, but others show he's in better shape than it appears on court! Ferrer's the same way; you'd just never know with those horribly baggy shirts on! :nono :angel: :dodgy:

Not sure if this is it but maybe. Either way, all these photos are so airbrushed it's hilarious. Googling non airbrushed photos of him shows he's not exactly in super human shape really by any means.

Absolutely, his wife is very famous in Finland

He mismanaged all his money and has become broke. He participated in dancing with stars etc. But debtors are after him that he is forced to come back, I think.
