Even so he is still small fry.
Did you hear that he lost weight?

Did he? I vaguely remember a commentator mentioning something.
Don't forget Ivanovic learnt tennis in a swimming pool. Sure she'll have a leg up on the women's side.
Oh my God! That's Pat Rafter Arena in Tennyson right? I was there... thankfully the tournament's finished before the flood came!
Where did you get the photo from ? I've been searching for news about the flood whether it's affecting the tennis centre or not. I only knew that Tennyson is in the flood zone because it's near the Brisbane river.

Good one.This yr the tournament is under water. Mardy Fish is the favorite to win.
Maybe they'll do something like "Hit for Haiti," which Roger organized on the fly last year ...Federer on FB.
The floods here in Australia are devastating! I am on my way to practice now and am going to speak with Tennis Australia to see if we perhaps can organize something on Sunday to help raise some funds for the people of Queensland who have been affected…stay tuned as it would be great if the sport of tennis can help out right before the Australian Open begins.
Also, Roddick was donating money for each of his Brisbane aces; maybe he can persuade some of the others to do the same thing at the Open.
Is that the Brisbane center court?
Lol, luckily no players drowned.

It's a sad moment for the people affected by the flood.. 10 people died so far and around 70 people are missing.
Regarding the flooded Pat Rafter Arena, why didn't they think carefully before building the tennis centre near Brisbane River? Tennyson suburb is a flood prone area, and they should think twice before building a sport complex there.
Anyway I've been unhappy with the way Tennis Australia dealing with Australian tennis. They seem to make tennis more of a business and don't really focus on the Australian players. Some top Tennis Australia officials own some apartments which is built near Pat Rafter Arena.. it sounds so wrong when tennis officials take opportunity to make money out of tennis project. It should be channeled towards the players. Also, all tennis clubs in Australia must use this same new blue surface all over the country and only one company that has the monopoly of this blue surface tennis court business. If a club refuses to put this new blue surface it may risks of losing its right to hold a tournament.... it all sounds so $$$$ oriented.
When they decided to move the WTA tournament in Gold Coast to Brisbane, the old Gold Coast WTA tournament director, wasn't even being informed about this.. that she would lose her job. That's pretty mean of TA.
Interesting journalist's investigation on Tennis Australia :
http://www.abc.net.au/4corners/content/2010/s2831274.htm
"Tennis Australia seems to be wanting control over everything that happens in this country with regards to tennis. Any financial dealing in this country, Tennis Australia wants to have a piece of it... and that's wrong." a quote from a manager of an Australian top pro player.
Judging by their webbed feet i would not worry.I hope all platypuses are safe!!!
Do you live in a flooded area?
