WTA Malaysian Open 2010: Qualifying OOP

Here's what you've been waiting for - the qualifying OOP for the WTA Malaysian Open 2010!

Please click for larger view.

As mentioned in the local papers, Malaysia no.1 Jawairiah Noordin did not get Wildcard into the Main Draw due to her poor performance in the Asia/Oceania Zone Fed Cup recently. Better luck next time girl!

So if you're into short skirts and tennis, head to the Bukit Kiara Equestrian and Country Resort tomorrow onwards as the Sony Ericsson WTA Mini Asian Tour will take place from February 22 – 28.

Qualifying matches will start at 10AM. Free admission.

And please don't forget to head to the practice courts too. That's the best place and time to meet the players!

It's been awhile...

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

I've lost my passion to blog ever since I started believing that this is the beginning of the end of Rafael Nadal's career.

I hope I'm wrong just like this picture of Nadal and Shakira...

Nadal starred in Shakira's new music video 'Gypsy' which took place in the city of Barcelona.

Both of t were seen also having dinner at a restaurant in Barcelona during the filming, fueling suspicions of a possible romance.

Well, Nadal aside, I think I better start working on some posts for the WTA Malaysian Open which is just three days away.

Later.
