The King is truly a nan of the people, he helped out the needy and hope he beats Gattuso Tipsarevic.
My Bulgarian mate, put me up to this and yes I watched Sesil Karantancheva, it also confirmed why I don't like womens tennis. At the same time it was good to see Sesil actually talk with the fans for a good 10 minutes after she won her matches. One of the funniest was her second round opponent Brengle. She is this American with a big rack and skinny legs. She was whining about the 10 Bulgarian fans, and complaining she was going to have a migrane after the match and wanted to use a gun, all class.
Clown fan moment was when one of the Bulgarian fans who was very excited after Sesil qualified. He stands on this pot plant and wants to do a back sommersault, he over rotated and instead of landing on his feet, he landed on his lead. Yes, all his friends laughed at him, then after a few minutes, they told to get it checked out, but he refused.
Mats Wilander and Babsi Schett were doing their Eurosport preview and then Sveta is training on the court behind them and starts pulling these faces, great work Sveta, Sharapova wouldn't do this.
Good to see Luczak isn't above pushing the pram around with Sebby, who is getting bigger and also his wife is going to have a daughter in March.
Felix Mantilla is around and it has been great to see him. It's easy to spot him with the foreign legion hat, he has a tough job helping the Aussies on clay. He is with his girlfriend and she seems pleasant.
Now onto some serious business. The Players Meeting on Saturday was very heated and had some vigorous discussion about the impact of the new ranking system. There was defintiely plenty of dissent there naturally, when the system didn't need to be changed, and tries to protect certain players and disadvantaging others who have no chance of defending their points.
Ljubo isn't in a great position and there is talk that he might resign his position, though this is more of a watch this space kind of thing, but the new ranking system is a load of bullshit, how can something that was said to be easier to understand for fans, yet come across so ham fisted in its explanation.
Off to do some tennis things now.

Seems like your "King" nearly did beat my Janko:-(( I'm very glad he didn't, though I know you won't agree.
Sorry for Oscar, I know you like him but happy for Janko.
Did you see that your detested Klein is in 2nd round?
Sveta is really fun to watch during practise.
her match is not bad either
Thanks for that. You know how much I appreciate what you call random stuff. I'd so much would like to be there, especially with Mats around...Keep on providing great reports and have fun.
LOL @ Sveta, nice to see a Russian with a sense of humor for a change. Did you see that Shrieky was mouthed off by one of the reporters at the AO? Talking about how she was a frigid bitch, why am I not surprised...
Brengle is a Jew, you lucky baster mediter doesn't read this bashing
