Here’s the overview of Amelie Mauresmo’s 2008 Reebok outfits, the last retrospection of WTA players’ outfits this year. It’s especially dedicated to one of our first faithful readers, Claire, who really wanted to see her favorite player featured.
As you can see, the Reebok-clad Mauresmo didn’t sport many different designs during 2008. All her outfits were simple, and often she wore the same dress, just in different color.
Jelena Jankovic wishes her fans a happy and successful 2009 standing next to her shiny red Porsche Carrera 911. Jelena wouldn’t be Jelena if she hadn’t had a matching shirt. Of course, a Santa Clause hat is there too.
What is she trying to tell us? Like "I wish you a 2009 just like my 2008 was, look what I’ve got!" Hehe. Or, knowing Jelena, I believe she couldn't wait to be photographed with the Santa Clause hat on, then she realized it matched perfectly with her nice car, and then she thought it would be cool to match a shirt too.
Happy 2009, JJ! I wish you a Grand Slam success!
Among many places Ana Ivanovic and boyfriend Fernando Verdasco were seen together, earlier this month they were spotted training together in Mallorca. We have already seen the pictures, but now there is a short video too.
Maria Sharapova was supposed to finally make her comeback from shoulder injury at the JB Group Classic in Hong Kong, but the Russian hasn’t had sufficient training to compete at the high level this event demands. However, the Australian Open champion is hitting tennis balls again, and the injury should be a thing of the past.
I miss competing so much. I am trying to do everything possible to be ready for Australia, but I have promised my doctors, coach and family that I will not rush back. Since I only started practicing 16 days ago, I have only been able to practice so many hours at a time which is why I don't feel like I am ready to compete at a high level right now and this is why I need to pull out of the exhibition in Hong Kong.
In her latest doodle, Sharapova explains in detail how she was healing her injury. In short, she was working on her strength and on building up all the muscles around her shoulder with shoulder rehab specialist in Arizona for 10 weeks. However, the pain didn't go away. Then she resorted to plan B, which was a minor arthroscopic surgery that lasted 22 minutes. The procedure was successful, and after 14 days she had full range of motion.
I know my shoulder will be 100 percent by Australia, I just need to see if I have enough tennis training to be ready for that level.
