Nadal Says, “See You In Abu Dhabi”
The
‘on-off, will he-won’t he’ saga of the exact date and place of Rafael
Nadal’s comeback could still have a couple of weeks to run but if the
former world no.1’s Facebook page and Twitter account are to be
believed, he’s insistent on contesting the highly lucrative Mubadala
World Tennis Championship in Abu Dhabi which runs from December 27-29.
Troicki Hires Reader As His Coach
Jack
Reader, the unconventional Australian coach who variously describes
himself as a committed smoker, social drinker, straight talker,
philosopher and tennis bum, is back in employment after being hired by
Serbia’s Viktor Troicki.
Players Are Starting To Sign Up For The New Dusseldorf
A
trio of top Germans have pledged their support to the revamped
Dusseldorf event as the tournament morphs into an ATP 250 on clay next
May. The city had three decades of hosting the late, great World Team
Cup, which died a death after last spring's edition due to commercial
considerations.
Wozniacki Gets Some Criticism For Her Serena Joke
Playful
Danish dynamo Caroline Wozniacki augmented her own physical charms with
a few well-stuffed towels as she did a fun-loving tennis impression of
friend and rival Serena Williams as "racism" hysteria over the stunt
erupted - where else but in the US.
Williams has always been proud of her trademark booty, tweeting 'Do they
make Brazilian bikinis for, um, well, me?'. Last summer, the 31-year-old
tweeted a photo of her bottom, saying: 'Hummm I think this onzie makes
me butt look TOO big. Ugh. #BigButtproblems.'
