Both hot and young couples were caught hugging and kissing on camera (finally!) :D
Ana Ivanovic were seen picking up boyfriend Fernando Verdasco at the airport in Mallorca at night.
I guess they must be heading to Ana's 4.5 million euros villa after that?
Last month, Kei Nishikori and table tennis princess Ai Fukuhara were spotted hugging and kissing in Tokyo. Here's the kissing photo (small inset photo) which was not posted in my previous post.
Back to Ana and Nando, they were spotted training together many times. Hopefully they motivate each other to practice hard and play better in year 2009.
Last weekend Ana went to Ferrol to support Nando at the Master Nacional-Copa del Rey exhibition. However, he didn't make good use of those practice with Ana and lost to Robredo 1-6, 7-5, 6-4.
Fernando Verdasco must be one of the happiest chap on earth right now.
With his success on court and off court recently, even the management at the Port Aventura Park in Salou, Spain knows Nando is the right person to help help them promote the theme park.
I'll be back this weekend for more updates. There have been lack of posts recently due to some personal issues which I have to settle first.
According to ATP Mens Tennis, Rafael Nadal received the International Sport of the Community of Madrid Award (International Sport of the Community of Madrid Award) from the hand of Esperanza Aguirre, President of the Community of Madrid.
Nadal received this award because of his relevance in the field of sports, his sporting merit and human values.
"For me to receive this award in its first edition is very important in a community such as Madrid, which I feel very similar and where I have achieved victories in the Masters series and in the Davis Cup," said Rafael Nadal in his award acceptance speech. "This tribute fills me with pride, I hope this is the beginning of many years to come for this Award."
Feliciano Lopez also attended the award presentation.
A former US university football player has been charged with threatening tennis beauty Maria Sharapova, as well as his former coach.
Leonard Taylor, a defensive back for the University of Wisconsin from 1995-98, was arrested last Friday and faces charges of stalking and telephone harassment over calls he made to Barry Alvarez, his former head coach and now the University of Wisconsin athletic director.
In the calls, Taylor threatened to kill Sharapova and her family as well as Alvarez himself.
Taylor's father, Leonard Taylor Sr., told police his son has been diagnosed as paranoid schizophrenic and stopped taking his medication about three months ago.
According to the complaint, police were informed in September that the 32-year-old Taylor had been calling Alvarez at work and leaving "disturbing messages".
Police contacted Taylor, who vowed to stop calling.
However, he began calling again in November, voicing "excessive profanity, threats against Alvarez and references to how professional tennis player Maria Sharapova (had) done (him) injustices in various ways," the complaint said.
According to the documents, Taylor left 29 messages on Alvarez's voice mail on November 24 and 25, in some of which Taylor said he wanted to marry Sharapova but also kill her and her family.
And by the way, Sharapova will be back in court joining world no. 1 Jelena Jankovic, Venus Williams and Zheng Jie in the revamped JB Group Classic in Hong Kong in January.
The annual exhibition tournament will see a team concept adopted for the first time with teams from Europe, Russia, the Americas and Asia Pacific competing at Victoria Park from January 7-10.
