DID YOU KNOW
That "real tennis" was an indoor raquet sport played by royalties which
later evolved into the modern "lawn tennis" by the English in the late 19th century?

Andy christened the table with a champagne flute for good luck!
No.. Not really, he accidentally broke a glass
Now I have his DNA and we're gonna clone him in one of secret labs in Singapore

Hometown hero Bernard Tomic has won his first match at the Brisbane International, holding his nerve in an enthralling three-set contest against experienced French campaigner Julien Benneteau to move into the second round.
“I trained with him in the Davis Cup in a team, so I know Benny well and it’d be good if he could win … We’ll see how it goes. I’d like to play him in the second round,” he said.[SOURCE]
Looking forward to seeing other international tennis superstars like
and of course, my favourite - Maria Sharapova
