Andy Roddick not shaken by bomb threat, wins at Queen's

Queen's Club was hit with bomb scare.

The match between Andy Roddick and Lleyton Hewitt was delayed when a note containing a bomb threat was discovered on one of the walls at the tournament.

After a search of the grounds, the match was allowed to begin, where Roddick defeated Hewitt 7-6(2), 7-6(4).

Tournament officials, who initially said the match was being delayed because of technical issues, disclosed that a spectator had discovered a bomb threat message pinned to a wall. However, a security sweep found nothing.

While waiting for about 20 minutes, the two former champions chatted at the net.

“Obviously, your concern is making sure everyone is safe,” Roddick said.

“There wasn’t really much to be done, and I know they were trying to decide what they were going to do.

“Obviously, we were hoping we were going to get a chance to stay out there and play the match, but that (bomb scare) was a first for me.”

Why did Richard Gasquet wait for the Pope?

First of all, it's not what you think.

It's not like Richard Gasquet meeting Pope Benedict XVI to ask for blessing or forgiveness.

Gasquet was recently spotted waiting for the arrival of the Pope prior to the weekly general audience in St. Peter's Square at the Vatican.

He was there to attend a charity football event organised by Variétés Club France.

Richard Gasquet recently caught up in an alleged cocaine bust.

He could face a two-year ban from professional tennis if found guilty.

Gasquet however claimed he was innocence.

Novak Djokovic: From impersonator to imposter

Hey, check out who was the "journalist" in sports gear sitting at the back during Ana Ivanovic's press conference at Roland Garros?

It appeared to be prankster, Novak Djokovic!

The funny part was when Djokvic pretended to be a "journalist" and started asking Ivanovic about her "love and private life"!

Of course everyone turned around and discovered it was Djokovic who sneaked into the press conference as it was his turn to be interviewed next.

Everyone had a good laugh.

Too bad Ivanovic refused to give her answer and only shaked Djokovic's hand on her way out.
