King Richard  |

Richard Krajicek is without a doubt the best tournament director!!! Why? Richard is brilliant! He knows how to run an event with so much thought, and consideration to the players, the ticketholders, and the sponsors… That’s the perfect combination…

What tourney our American audience is asking…? The Rotterdam event! The dates are Feb. 7 thru the 13th. Officially it’s called the AMN AMRO World Tennis Tournament. The site is ahoy in Rotterdam…

Turns out the BIG BOSS was even at Richard’s wedding to the beautiful and brilliant Daphne Deckers… 10sballs.com is proud to be associated with such a first class royal visionary like Richard Krajicek. We support Dutch tennis as much as possible. We know there’s a young or sort of young group of guys working under the watchful eye of the brilliant coach Rohan Goetzke… Guys he was there with King Richard at Wimbledon in 1996… Go Theimo, Robin and all you young Dutch players.

A hello, also, to Michaela Krajicek. Hang in there kiddo you’re about to have that breakthrough you’ve worked so hard for…
Aussie Chick mentioned that in the senior event at the Australian Open that Wayne Arthurs can still serve missiles out of his almost forty year old left arm. In his last match partnering with Pat Cash, Wayne and Cashy beat Thomas Muster and Michael Pernfors. Well-done team 10sballs.com. But it gets better. Wayno hit two serves in excess of 200 km/h. The fastest was 212. Wow…!
Ok. We’ve put it off. But here goes… My Aussie Open isn’t finishing as I wanted. Here was my wish list. I love Caroline Wozniacki. She was up against a warrior. A woman on a mission. Mentally the Roman beat the 20-year-old beauty known as “sunshine.” China we knew you would MAKE a champion. At any cost. At all costs… Congrats to Li Na… But now the next opponent is Aussie Kim, who is also a woman on a mission…

Max Mirnyi and Daniel Nestor lost their dubs to the “double faulters…” real scoring is the only way to play doubles!  No luck factor… Sorry to see Roger Federer lose. . Once you hit that round of sixteen you can really taste the win. Each of the 16 players feels that way. Roger you’ve shown grace and magic on and off the court. Thank you for the flood victims’ efforts. The joker bounced and played slow and got into Feds head again. The joker plays so well why does he have to play so slowly to bother Rog? Play the maestro with respect…

Still getting over concept of no records broken. No rags slam. 10sballs.com has a zero tolerance when it comes to bad sportsmanship or “gamesmanship…” Roger is such a gentleman. So is Rafa. Rafael Nadal. So is Andy Murray… Andy Roddick has the bad habit of making ugly face at the players guest boxes at all times.  He wants to psych out the friends and family…?

But back to Roger who is the most gracious gentleman… When asked at the press conference about his words with the chair umpire? Roger merely answered in a polite fashion… “he is a nice guy, the chair umpire, so I kind of like to talk to him at times…”

We wish Paul Hanley good luck in the mixed. We wish Esther Vergeer the best of luck. Feel better team 10sballs.com in the press bunker. Camerawork USA. Fred and Susan Mullane your photos are amazing. Thank you all. Lots of hard work. It shows. Go team Adidas. Good luck Sven, Mats, Claus, and Floris. Adam Fish and DF Productions you are our RF…

The only way to describe this U.S. open is soaking wet without raining... It's really hard to play tennis when your socks are soaking wet and you are "sloshing" in your shoes. Your shoes get really heavy when they get wet.
