WE ARE FINALLY "DOWN UNDER" & WE ARE CELEBRATING THE START OF THE 2015 TENNIS YEAR |

Hawaii was awesome. We even took a short heli – ride to Lanai to catch a dinner before we left the islands. We made a puddle jump to the Island of Lanai for some sliders @NOBU among everything else yummy there. Last time we were in Lanai was 25 years ago ,time flies and there wasn’t a Nobu.

We are totally immersed and loving being in New Zealand and Australia. We should start over.

G’day Mate :). We passed on Sydney. Sorry Louise and Catherine. We are now in Melbourne. What an awesome city. Our favorite hotel is the COMO. It’s great. Small. Great walking around for food and atmosphere. The Auzzies Love their summers. They love their tennis players and the rich history the players have created. Coach Harry Hopman had so many great players. Such great depth that he could have fielded 5 Davis cup teams. You have living legends everywhere you look. Rod laver , Roy Emerson , Tony Roche , John Newcombe , and that’s just to name a few. Then there’s the younger legends like Mark Philippoussis and Mark Woodforde and Todd Woodbridge. And I could keep going and going. Special hello to Wayne Arthur’s. The man with the best lefty serve ever. You could not read it at all and it hooked on you, at you , thru you …

We always love to attend The Kooyong event prior to the Australian Open . Kooyong Lawn Tennis Club is such a great old place . It has a beautiful museum. It’s Really a special place. You can feel the history in the halls on the courts from the moment you enter the private enclave. This year the sponsor is “The Priceline Pharmacy Classic “.

0n Wednesday January 14th from 5:30 till 7:30 the team from 10sBalls.com will be on the GRASS courts playing in the “WOODS & WHITES GARDEN PARTY. Yes , we even brought our grass court shoes.

FILIP KRAJINOVIC TO REPLACE INJURED TSONGA

Rising Serbian star Filip Krajinovic has confirmed he will make his debut at the Priceline Pharmacy Classic – Kooyong next week, replacing Jo-Wilfried Tsonga who has withdrawn with a right arm injury.

Last season world No.92 Krajinovic qualified for the US Open and made his Davis Cup debut, winning the deciding rubber in Serbia’s play-off tie against India in September. A former pupil at the Nick Bollettieri Tennis Academy, he is one of the ATP World Tour’s most exciting prospects.

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.
