So much for sunny Southern California. We sure Hope Norman Cook can make it to Ryan’s match. We think Kaley Cuoco Sweeting will be at the Golden Globes….. But rain is forecast for a portion of Sunday. So Mother Nature makes the decisions.
Rain washed out the entire day of play at both the USTA Pro Circuit $15,000 Southern California Futures Tournament, as well as qualifying on the first day at the Long Beach El Dorado Park Tennis Center Pro Tournament.
Both semifinals of the SoCal Futures Tournament will take place on Sunday morning starting at 9 a.m., with the finals to follow after suitable rest.
Of note and playing in Long Beach qualifying (Sunday schedule attached) is former US Open Junior Boys’ champion and world Top 65 player Ryan Sweeting, who faces Sahak Bazganian in the first round Sunday, weather permitting. Sweeting, who is married to TV star Kaley Cuoco, is 27 years old, lives in Calabasas, Calif., and is on a comeback attempt after severe back issues sidelined him the past two years.

Happy to see Del Potro also making a comeback. Sorry to see Tsonga out with his arm / wrist problems. Rain bothered the tennis in Sydney today as well.the forecast doesn’t look great there till next Friday. (Tuesday / Thursday mixed sun and rain) There’s just 8 days till the start of the Australian Open from Melbourne. We can’t wait. The “Happy Open ” the “Fun Open ” the” crazy fans open “. We know Jan – Michael Gambill was great at TV commentating in Doha. He brings a fresh look at things. Who isn’t tired of hearing one a TV commentator say “LINEAR ” …. We are ! Re : RF we are so hoping Roger Federer pulls off his 1,000 win in finals vs. Milos. Roger has never retired from a match. Ever. Well maybe in the juniors ? We love all the new clothes , styles and rebirths. Welcome back Ellesse , Fila’s new clothes look awesome. Venus line ( ELEVEN ) is great. Nike is always great . And the new Under Armour looks good on Andy Murray and Jamie Murray. We heard from THE X – MAN , Xavier Malisse. He is enjoying playing some exhibitions and coaching some players. We are hoping he plays dubs in the French ? Weirder things have happened. He did win the Dubs their with Ollie Rochus ? Lester Cook is down under as is Andy Fitzell … Lots of new coaches. New support systems. 2015 is going to be super exciting. Put on Your “sunnies ” and add a shrimp on your “Barbie ” …. Don’t forget your sunscreen too.
