The fashion magazine, Men's Vogue certainly loves tennis players particularly the Serbians.
After Novak Djokovic being featured in the May issue, it's Janko Tipsarevic's turn to take the beach by storm in the June issue. Photo shots were taken in Maldives featuring summer collections of Prada, DKNY, Y-3, Bottega Veneta, Osklen and CP Company.
Perhaps not many have predicted a repeated final match between Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal at Hamburg Masters Series 2008. However the world no. 1 and 2 proved that they still dominate despite poor performance at the beginning of the year.
It's a total relieve for many Nadal's fans out there after beating Novak Djokovic 7-5, 2-6, 2-6. It's not much about beating the Djoker to be in the final but last night's match is all about maintaining the no. 2 spot on the ATP rankings. Djokovic has been a big threat for both Nadal and Federer this year.
In that slightly more than 3 hours match, Nadal proves that he is still the King of Clay, chasing down almost anything Djokovic threw at him.
Earlier on, Federer has no problem beating Italian Andreas Seppi 6-3, 6-1 to book a place in the final.
So who will win tonight? Personally I just want to see Nadal win this and widen the gap further away from Djokovic in the ATP Rankings.
I thought this youtube video is pretty cool (except for the music). It is a compilation of most of the current top tennis players childhood pictures.
