What Drew's Reading: Link Round-Up

(Via Drew Nolan)

In an attempt to sell lots of books set the record straight, Andre Agassi recently admitted to using Crystal Methamphetamine throughout the course of his career. But fear not, tennis fans, because Agassi says that today's tennis drug program is much tougher.


The program is apparently so tough, that Yanina Wickmayer was afraid of getting tested. As apart of the program, tennis stars have to report their whereabouts to the World Anti-Doping Agency. Wickmayer failed to do so on three separate occasions, and has been suspended for a year.

Maybe John McEnroe's ridiculous behavior throughout the course of his career was drug related? I'm thinking Angel Dust. That would make perfect sense.

Remember Serena Williams' tirade at the U.S. Open? Well as it turns out, Serena will not be banned from the upcoming Australian Open. She will, however, get hit with a fine. I think she can afford it.

Cal Sophomore Jana Juricova didn't threaten to kill an innocent line judge like her idol Serena Williams, but she still managed to win the ITA National Intercollegiate Indoor Women's Single Tennis Championship. The tournament, despite its obnoxiously long name, is considered one of the most important collegiate tournaments in the country.

Tennis obviously isn't much of a contact sport, but injuries are still fairly common. Don't believe me? Well check this and this out. Ouch.

And last but not least, the video of the week.
