Pakistan’s top player Aisam-ul-Haq Qureshi says he will compete in the inaugural International Tennis Premier League, which is to be launched by India’s Mahesh Bhupathi. . .

The WTA Brussels Open will introduce 6 PM matches for the first time. . .

Sightings at the Easter Bowl have included Taylor Dent and his father Phil, former Easter Bowl champion Alexa Glatch, Jose Higueras, USC women’s coach Richard Gallien, former ATP Touring pros David Pate and Larry Stefanki, USC women’s coach West Nott, USC men’s coach Peter Smith, and UC-Berkeley Cal women’s coach Amanda Augustus. . .

Marion Bartoli has begun to train with her father, Walter again, which could affect her participation next week in Fed Cup. . .

Roger Rasheed, who coaches Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, says the Frenchman can win a major. “Jo has already been to a Grand Slam final (the 2008 Australian Open) and I believe he’s a player that can grab a Grand Slam title.”
