Ula had a spine injury earlier this year, making her miss great part of her 2010 season. But she was seen practising in Stanford with Aga and she’s scheduled to play qualies in San Diego. She’s also going straight into the U.S. Open main draw thanks to her Special Rankings. Summing up: yay Ula!

To celebrate, a few pictures of Ula and Caro dressed as pandas on the China Great Wall. (That’s a sentence I’ve never thought I’d write.) Special appearance by Daddy Wozniacki.

Last, but not least:

Nom om om panda brainzzz.

There were missteps, there were ‘oh gosh, you have seen who you’re designing to, right???’ moments, there was incredibility that Caro was still wearing the same dress — but, it seems like it has finally worked. Stella McCartney has designed a proper outfit for Caroline Wozniacki.

Caro’s US Open outfits were posted on WTA Tennis Blog. From what it looks like, she will have two different dresses: one for her day matches and one for the night sessions.

I’ll have to wait to see proper pictures of Caro wearing the dress but up until this point I’m loving it. I like how they are fancier than the regular Stella stuff she has been wearing and yet it doesn’t approach the Sharapova 2006 US Open sequin disaster. There are other clear signs of improvement, like the waist. This dress will be much fitting to Caro‘s body — it will accentuate her curves instead of making her look like a balloon in a skirt. We’re not all Maria Kirilenkos.

Basically: Stella, this is your chance to show the tennis world why you’re one of my favourite designers. Get on it.

All in favour of calling the WTA Tour ‘The Petkorazzi & co Tour’ say I.

Meanwhile, still talking about the World Cup (I’m sorry, is there actual tennis going on?): a very cute article on Caro and football. Cutest. Liverpool. Fangirl. Ever.

Yeah…. I don’t even know either.

Yesterday we had the first day of Roland Garros. Most players I like did that they do best: lost. At least Kiri won her first round match. I consider that a vast improvement since last year she lost to the pre-pubescent Australian WC. It’s not like  she could have found a more pathetic player to lose to. It’s not like she drew Chaky on the first round or something — ha ha!

(Will not talk about Vika.)

Anyway.

Caro bagelled a lady and won her match in two easy sets. Apparently everything’s ok with her ankle? Not important. The important thing is ‘Omgggggg Caro, Aga and Ula are qtest that ever qt’d’. No, seriously. They are. Watch this.

ALSO: This happened.

What.

I JUST WANT THEM TO GET GAY MARRIED ALREADY.

her backhand’s as sweet as orange sorbet
i sure hope she’s a little gay (even .1% will do)
she’s a super cute girl with a polish name

Omg so catchy.

To please the video maker and me (Hello excuse to post a picture of rockstar Vika! ♥):

.1%, right?

ETA:

You, sir, speak the truth.

Yesterday, we had an exhibition in Kiev, Ukraine with quite a few stars: Victoria Azarenka, Caroline Wozniacki, Anna Kournikova, David Ferrer and Tommy Robredo. This exhibition was also a valid opportunity for me to go “HEEEE VIKA AND CARO ILU BABIES GO CONQUER THE TOUR” except more calmly. A lot more calmly,  I promise.

They played a set, in which Caro won 7-5. I’m sure Caro pushed the balls and Vika hit them as hard as she could.

They made out after the match because Vika found out she was going get some shiny present for Christmas. Not a puppy though. Maybe an engagement ring?

After the singles match, Vika parterned up with Tommy to play against fucking rockstar, Anna Kournikova and David Ferrer.

Vika/Tommy defeated Anna K./Ferru 6-3. Anna K. wasn’t as amused as Vika by the outcome.

BONUS: Victoria Azarenka thinks ridiculous hats are fashionable. Bless that lil’ chavtastic Belarussian.

Having fun, aren’t we, ladies?

More pictures can be seen here. Amusing, ladies, v. amusing.

Old picture from Doha but I just had to. Look at her smile. Oh, Rads, never change, okay?

NOM OM OM. From Doha’s players’ party. Caro enjoying the chocolate fondue and, apparently, not realizing there’s plenty for all of them. Gotta love how Ula was there even if she isn’t even ranked inside the top 60. Girl has no shame — does anything for a free meal.

Victoria Azarenka (on Caro): “She’s a great pusher. I’ve never seen anyone push the ball that bad.”

Caroline Wozniacki (on Vika): “She’s actually a brainless ballbasher that just hits every single ball as hard as she can. And I think that’s actually why we compliment each other so well. Because I push the ball back in the court all the time and she just hits it as hard as she can. And somehow we get the good rallies.”

Victoria Azarenka: “And that’s why we play for three hours. Because we can’t do anything else.”

CUTENESS OVERLOAD: You see it here at Fierce Tennis first.
