CNN is reporting that the #1 German tennis player Tommy Haas has pulled out of the rest of the end of the year tournaments because he has contracted the swine flu.I always figured being in top physical condition would keep you immune to the swine flu. I guess that is not the case, good luck Tommy!
Over at TennisX they profile Marcos Baghdatis' first tournament victory since 2007 in Zagreb, Croatia.
The Cypriot fell out of shape (he isn't the skinniest guy on tour) after making a miracle run to the Australian Open final in 2007. He became one of my personal favorites because of his light-hearted attitude and what seemed to be a love for the game. Hopefully this victory propels him back to the top of the men's rankings.
According to the Mercury News, Andre Agassi's admittance to using crystal meth will call for an anti-doping investigation.
However, since it happened more than eight years ago, the ATP cannot do anything to Agassi. The investigation is pretty much pointless.
Staying on the same subject, The United Kingdom's Daily Mail provides a must read story by Piers Morgan on Andre Agassi, and why doing crystal meth is a forgivable offense.
Plus, he writes a little about Tim Henman, what's not to love?
Speaking of Tim, Bleacher Report looks back to the 2003 Masters Series event in Paris in which my man Tim Henman went on a miracle run to capture the title.
Oh how i miss those days, please come out of retirement Tim!
