Fernando Verdasco, Feliciano Lopez and LV bags (updated)

The FeVer is officially on!

Fernando Verdasco and Feliciano Lopez are in Kuala Lumpur right now together with their family members (Papa and Mama Verdasco, plus another two unknown older ladies).

We heard from some of the passengers who came out earlier that Verdasco was busy taking pictures with fans who recognised him at the immigration counter. Poor Lopez because nobody seems to know him. It's their loss.

There are no better words that I can use to describe these drop dead gorgeous duo. So, I'll just let the pictures do the talking.

Spanish Armada ready to invade Malaysia

One third of the Spanish Armada has landed in Malaysia and the other two will follow soon.

I was at the airport tryingy to catch the first glimpse of David Ferrer as he touched down this country with his fellow 'entourage'.

Fernando Verdasco and Feliciano Lopez are expected to arrive very soon.

While waiting for them, hope you'll enjoy these pictures. I have to tell you that I totally underestimated Ferrer's awesomeness!
