I just read that Stan's press conference was all so that he could rant and rave about being abandoned by coach Magnus Norman. LMAO.

Here's a quote from Stan's needless Press Conference:

 

 

"It was a shock. I was very surprised by his decision and the timing. It was a big disappointment that he decided to stop at that moment in my career, just before I resumed playing, at the time I would have needed to rely on him" - Wawrinka on Magnus Norman resigning as his coach

He's not wrong.

I know he got tired of the training but I wish Safin hadn't left the game when he did but he insisted on adhering to that declaration that he'd leave by the time he was 30.

He was certainly better than his resume, for sure.

 

He was often a jackass, but at least he was nice eye candy in his prime.

His resume looks a lot like underachievement but I used to love to watch him play. (he was a Davis Cup stalwart who was pretty reliable at destroying opponents-it was fun to watch ).

When he was really intent on winning, he was capable of beating anyone.

And yes, he was magnificent eye candy.

There will never be another Becker who won Wimbledon at an early age. As I put on my FB page....how come Marat doesn't come back to the tour and beat them then? He was overrated and underachieved.. So he shouldn't talk.

Tsonga and Pouille get all the attention, but Herbert is an underrated hottie.

I've never cared for Tsonga. I always thought Pouille was adorable. Herbert is hot....and adorable at the same time....LOL. Flove when he wags his tongue before he serves.....LOL

Oh I think Jo Willie is gorgeous. He's a bit like a young Muhammad Ali.
