Tatiana Golovin eases career troubles by smoking cigarettes

Tatiana Golovin smoking cigarettes

I didn’t know Tatiana Golovin smoked!

Considering the current state of her tennis career, no wonder she resorted to vices. Let’s just mention that the 20-year-old Golovin started the 2008 season ranked 13th, and now she’s ranked 249th.

Or maybe the French tennis player started smoking because of her turbulent love life? Who knows.

Something, however, I do know. The 2008 year has been filled with injury problems for Golovin. She hasn’t played competitive tennis since May, and even before May she was not consistently competing because of her lower back injury and hip surgery.

Tati will hopefully do well at the 2009 Australian Open, which should be her first tournament after a long time. (photos via Down the Line)

    Smoking is still very common in France, as I understand it, though one would not expect to see an athlete smoking in any country. It's sad about Golovin–after her training stint with Wilander, her game became excellent, then everything went to hell.

    I had always wondered if any of the tennis players smoked, and then I saw these pics of Golovin. I know about some other very successful athletes who smoke, but they are not tennis players.

    Golovin's career is currently challenged. I wonder what the 2009 season will be like for her.

    Anna kournikova is a smoker, she started smoking when she was on the tennis tour and I believe still smokes today.
