It's in the article. 

"The voting members included three tournament representatives, Gavin Forbes, Charles Humphrey Smith and Mark Webster, and two player representatives, David Egdes and Alex Inglot."

 

 

 

Gimelstob can still be voted out by the player council by majority vote from the 10 players. 

It was the 10 man player council, I think, who voted out Roger Rasheed because he voted on a small increase by tournaments over the course of a year, instead of a more favorable agreement that the players wanted.

I just find it hard to believe that all of Justin's run ins have been other people's fault. So lets just say his former friend did say ....hey your dad was a loser and then Justin attacks him.....he still is in big trouble...no?

Today we’re celebrating beautiful bodies. And we’re going to do that by naming the 10 best bodies in men’s tennis in 2018. We can assure you that it wasn’t an easy task by any means—but we gave it the old college try and here’s what we came up with.

 

This is from Tennis Now...was going to post the video with results but it contains Stan nude.....LOL

 

Number 1 was Rafa....pleaseeeeeeeeee...he has one of the worst bodies I've seen 

 

Dominic Thiem was #6 and too low IMO.

Competition between mom and son.....LOL

I saw that list. No Verdasco? Fucsovics? Fognini? As much as I hate to admit it, Andy Murray? I’m glad they included Tiafoe. He has a fantastic body. Coric, Dimitrov, and Tsonga are no brainers. 

 

Ha. Nadal might not be at his 2000s peak, but his body is deserving of praise.

 

TBH tennis players are often super handsome, but relative to other athletes, their bodies aren’t that aesthetically impressive (to me). Certainly not compared to players in the NFL, basketball, soccer, rugby, swimming, or boxers/wrestlers/MMA fighters. That’s IMO of course, and those sports require different strengths. And what everyone values in men is different. But I’m not that interested in seeing Sascha Zverev or Tsitsipas or FAA with their shirts off. I love Novak, but he’s a twig. But they’re all extremely fit guys.

    • Poor Philip. I appreciate how seriously his and Xander’s scenes were taken though. It felt like real drama and not like a big joke. You could actually feel Xander’s pain and anger. It adds another dynamic to the Kiriakis family storylines and I’m looking forward to the effects that this is going to have across the canvas. I can see them weaving Kate and Roman into this storyline as well. And it would be really nice if this somehow helped cause conflict for Stephanie/Alex too, especially because of what Alex did today. With any luck, Stephanie will be furious about it.  And I’m glad that Sarah has Maggie to confide in about her secret. I also liked seeing Steve and Shawn (and their matching jackets

      ) continue to be on the case. Kevin, revealing everything to them is another interesting turn in this storyline. Plus, it seems the writing has improved for Shawn as well. 
    • TBF, I don't think we've seen her interact enough with the "have-nots" to know if she is or isn't. It's possible, but I don't think you can say that from her interactions with Eva and Silkpress.
    • You're right - though I did confuse his name with an actual actor who was on Dynasty.

    • "Might" is not "is". And I was talking about the specific case about her attitude to Eva. 
    • But she can still be a priveliged elitist. She might have the same attitude to anyone from 'the wrong side of the tracks' whether they had an agenda or not. Nicole seems to be an outlier in her family.Her parents, kids and sister seem to think themselves above reproach.
    • Damian's clothes have definitely been a specific look -kinda reads 70's pimp to me . I guess it's a trend?? but it seems more suited to Holden. JR is 51  and I guess Damian is supposed to be a little younger but it looks a little odd on him in my book. But at least they're trying. The men's clothing has been bland/generic for years-either suits or basic casual stuff interchangeable  b/w them.
