For those of you that don't know of him, he was a decent enough Aussie player, former husband to Jarmila Gajdosova, and gave up his tennis career to try and play professional Aussie Rules Football. That being said, I subscribe to Tennis Australia on Youtube, and I get this video:

Can any of you Aussies (or more knowledgeable people) cue me in. Is Groth coming back to tennis, or is this just an exhibition type deal?

wow, I didn't realize this about Groth. When I strung at the Delray this year, he was one of my favorite players. A lot of fun, and great attitude. Hope he comes back.

I started following him a while back since I love his serve-motion, but if he's having more fun with Football, I can't complain if he doesn't come back.

Guy who's worked for him vs guy who's seen him on Youtube. Hmm...

time to get angry or what? just watch the first few minutes and you will see where my opinion comes from. all i said was he SEEMS like an ass on court. no idea off court. drak obviously wasnt in a match vs him was he???

I'm not angry, just amused, lol...

He was also 20-30 min removed of his last match, and at that level and that temperature (Aussie summer), I'm sure he wasn't thrilled to be playing for consolation...
