ATP World Tour Finals (WTF) 2013: Fantastic finish for Novak Djokovic

Rafael Nadal has to wait for another year before he can give the WTF title another shot. That is the only major title missing from his CV after playing as a professional player for 13 years.

Despite the loss, Djokovic who captured the year-end title for a third time said that the no.1 rank in Nadal's hands is well deserved because the Spaniard has won 2 Grand Slam titles this year, the best out of all players this year.

Djokovic, a favourite to win this tournament, brought the curtain down on the 2013 season with a convincing 6-3 6-4 win.

Djokovic caught up with One Direction member Niall Horan after winning the championship.

It will be exciting to see how these two players perform in 2014 especially at the Australian Open where Nadal was missing earlier this year.

Meanwhile, Fernando Verdasco and David Marrero upset favourite duo Bob and Mike Bryan 7-5 6-7(3) 10-7 in the doubles final.

Fernando Verdasco buys dad a bike for birthday

Fernando Verdasco has been spending a lot of quality time with his family, girlfriend Jarah Mariano and friends lately.

Yesterday Verdasco celebrated his dad Jose's birthday by getting him a bike.

The Spaniard has yet to kick off his grass court season as he has withdrawn from Halle, where Roger Federer is going to play this week.

Fernando Verdasco fascinated with the falcons

This year, Roland Garros no longer has the pigeon pest problem. They have hired eight falcons to keep away the pigeons.

Players are quite fascinated with the creatures. Svetlana Kuznetsova has taken a picture exactly at this area where Fernando Verdasco took this morning.

Novak Djokovic, Andy Murray display football skills to aid Japan relief

Here are the photos of Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal and friends in a charity soccer match to support the relief effort in Japan.

Other players who joined this effort were Kei Nishikori, Andy Murray, Fernando Verdasco, Richard Gasquet, Feliciano Lopez, Viktor Troicki, Marcos Baghdatis, David Ferrer, Jurgen Melzer, etc.

Murray and Baghdatis scored, but the tennis players lost to the Fort Lauderdale Strikers professional team.

If you are thinking of contributing to this relief effort too, please visit this website and bid on something for a good cause.

This auction site was put up by Nishikori to raise funds for the Red Cross to help victims in Japan.

They will continue to fill the site with items as players and events continue to donate.

Fernando Verdasco: Impossible is nothing

I'm a Nike person never an Adidas.

And I'm not observant either. But my eyes were pretty quick when it comes to Fernando Verdasco when I saw this advertising display in front of an Adidas shop in Pavilion, KL yesterday.

Speaking of the Australian Open, Verdasco made quite an impression after saving match points in a dramatic come-from-behind victory on Wednesday.

Verdasco rallied from a two-set deficit and saved three match points in the fourth set against Janko Tipsarevic, to eventually claim the match 2-6, 4-6, 6-4, 7-6 (7-0), 6-0.

He's scheduled to play Kei Nishikori today, who defeated Florian Mayer 6-4, 6-3, 0-6, 6-3 in the second round.

It's been awhile...

It's been awhile since I update this tennis blog.

After a long break from tennis and a vacation, I think it's time for me to get back into what I do best, that is to blog about tennis.

Verdasco with Mikhail Youzhny and Tomas Berdych at the Kooyong Classic presser

I also confess that it is Fernando Verdasco's new mohawk (and sexy smile) that makes me want to start writing about tennis news and gossip again.

There's no better way to start this than to report about the Australian Open which will commence next week.

So watch this space...

Players' arrival photos in Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur

As a big tennis fan and tennis mamarazzi, nothing beats welcoming my favourite players at the airport with a bunch of flowers :D

Unlike last year, this time I only got to know Rendy Lu Yen-hsun's flight schedule. Rendy arrived together with his mom, brother and his team.

Meanwhile in Bangkok, the organiser sent me some arrival photos of their star players - Juan Martin Del Potro, Ernests Gulbis, Fernando Verdasco and Jurgen Melzer (in sequence).

Yay, Del Potro is back in tournament!

Andy Murray, Fernando Verdasco get classy

It's pretty usual to see tennis players featured in fashion magazines whenever they play in the US.

In the latest edition of the Vogue magazine, Andy Murray got the help from professional photographer Mario Testino and came up with some really cool shots... perhaps not the last picture :P

Meanwhile the very suave looking Fernando Verdasco does a GQ shoot.


Now only if he can produce good results in tennis like he did in photo shoots *sigh*

More than just friendship bracelets?

My obsession with Fernando Verdasco and Feliciano Lopez started ever since they landed together (with family members) at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport with their identical LV bags last year.

Follow up with their 'Titanic' encounter on a boat in Ibiza recently, more vacation photos have surfaced.

Click to enlarge photos

One thing that caught the attention of the observant fans in forum is their identical bracelets.

Are those just friendship bracelets or perhaps there's a special meaning behind them? I would love to find out :D
