*no caption needed* (I don’t know if the default ‘NOM OM OM’ is appropriate here)
Rafa Nadal and Roger Federer gave press conferences today in Abu Dhabi for the Capitala World Tennis Championship (I like how they make a 3-day exhibition sound like the hottest thing since Wimbledon). The boys will get into court on the first day of 2010 – Federer will play the winner of Soderling and Wawrinka, Rafa will play the winner of Ferrer (replacing Tsonga) and Davydenko.
This ought to be fun.
Now all that needs to happen is the CAPITALA WORLD TENNIS CHAMPIONSHIP to actually do a proper job updating that website. That can’t be hard, can it? CAN IT?
Here some pictures of the boys practicing in the shiny court they have there.




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.
Damn, that court is shiny. I thought it had rained or something.
Also, I’m glad that Rafa isn’t wearing his AO kit. I’m not really sure if Federer is as all his clothes look exactly the same.
