A few Wimbledon remarks
A few Wimbledon remarks
Rafael Nadal; “Rafaholics;” and Rafa’s parents. Is Rafa pulling at his rear?… I’ve got Rafa-fever! I’ve taken two aspirin, I’ve had chicken soup, yet I still can’t help but wonder why he never learned to play righty as well. Rafa’s parents sat in the Royal Box. Wow, what a thrill for any tennis parent. Rafa was thrilled that The All England Club invited them.
As for Xavier Malisse, we are so proud of him and all our Belgium buddies. That would also include Max Braeckman and (drumroll)… Ollie Rochus. This goes without mentioning Olivier Laurent and Pierre Rochus, who is a true champion, as gracious a loser as he is a winner. The height difference reminded Geezer of the Rochus vs. Krajicek match at the US Open years back. It was so odd as this was with each change of end. Ollie Rochus is 5’6″(1.68). His opponent Juan Martin del Potro is 6’6″(1.98) The height difference is more than a foot no matter what Gregs Media Guide says. Delpo is taller and Ollie is shorter. And dear Christophe, we totally believe you…
Listening to MaryJo, and she hit the Li Na flatness right. Big stresses, lots of spinning with such a big win for the first big Chinese ladies tennis player. This was truly ground breaking…
“D,” from California told me the funniest thing the other day. No, I can’t tell you, but I can tell you this: I never mean to offend any of our wonderful Serbian friends and followers. But, come on, he does bounce the ball way too much.
Onto Ana Ivanovic. We are so happy to see her so happy. She is far too beautiful to look sad. Her press conference was great, and she really handled tough questions very well. It sounded like Mathew Cronin asked her about Sven, and we all know that her French time with him was the highlight of her life. We sure wish she could see that being part of that team is just what she need. Its a very healthy, nuturing program, it’s a team. It’s called “Adidas High Performance” (something)…
