Marat is hot as “protective” brother, Dinara isn’t smart enough to open coconuts

115

Marat‘s press conference yesterday after losing to Monfils was, well, adorable in his hippo-way of being. The journalist said his sister wasn’t playing so well but now she is (that was before her match against Vinci, d’oh) and asked how Marat felt about it.

“I’m enjoying it, but she (Dinara) — she’s a hard worker. So for her, everything is like a battle. She wants it. She wants it badly. She spends so much time on court. I think she is more professional than all the players together.
So when she’s trying and she’s — nobody believed that she’s going to be No. 1 in the world. Nobody believed that she going to be top 10 even two, three years ago.
So look where she is right now. A lot of people they giving her trouble, okay, she’s No. 1 in the world but she never won a Grand Slam.
So it’s a little bit — it gets tough on her. But she’s there. She’s fighting. She’s trying. I’m really proud of her that she can stand, and I tell everybody to fuck off basically in every press conference. I would do this way, but unfortunately she’s very polite to you guys.
But I’m really proud that she’s holding up herself even though that’s somebody can be really rough on her. She’s there. I hope she can be No. 1 for a long time so she can prove to everybody that they can go fuck themselves.

Seriously, you guys. That made my heart flutter. Sometimes, I don’t even like posting about Marat because nowadays he only brings me pain. He doesn’t really care about the sport anymore and it’s obvious he just wants the season to be over so he can go to his retire-land and date a few sluts. But a few years ago, when he was still, you know, winning, he would bring me so much happiness. Being his smart ass self on pressers, talking about David Lynch and trashing books like The Da Vinci Code. I don’t think it needs to be said that he will be missed.

And to prove hilariousity runs in the blood, Dinara explains why her left hand is all taped. She lost a fight with a coconut.

“I would say I lost a bet with a coconut. I was trying to open a coconut and actually didn’t open it very good because the knife slipped and it went straight into my hand. It was pretty deep. I was lucky that I was able to play in Los Angeles because until the day before the tournament I didn’t hit any backhands. There was no chance I could hit any backhand.”

The Safins… they sure are special.

Fierce Tennis, you say?

Question: What is this awesome piece of the interwebs?

Answer: I have tried and failed several times to keep blogs up. Why? Because I don’t like doing serious journalism unless there’s money showing up in my bank account — and there wasn’t. This blog will have no interest in being impartial or, you know, actually talking about the sport (ok, maybe from time to time). There are tons of other blogs (and news websites) that do this job pretty well already. Here we will discuss the shallow part: the outfits, the gossip, the outrages and who Fernando Verdasco is currently dating.
