Here too. They broadcast only some more important matches of our players, and Fed Cup and Davis Cup. Everything else I'm watching on cable TV. Eurosport is broadcasting Dubai.

Thank you very much for the compliment. I look a bit different now. The photo at my "about" page is from the winter of 2007. In particular, my hair is much longer.

I tried to tell my friends to follow tennis but they are not interested, they keep giving me the "are you kidding" look.

If it wasn't for cable television tennis would get very little coverage in the U.S.

J.J. is not a bad looking girl. When I looked at your photo for the first time it was a quick glance and I said to myself, "Is that J.J?" But when I took a closer look at your photo I said, "Oh is not J.J. this young lady is much, much prettier". Don't get mad is a complement

Yeah, Memphis is a small event, but I supposed the U.S. would televise its own tournament. Well, money comes first, as always. Hehe, maybe you should talk your friends into following tennis.

What do you mean by "the prettier version of Jelena Jankovic"?

Well tennis is not a major sport in the U.S. American football, baseball, basketball, college(American) football, and college basketball are the major sports. Tennis is consider by many in the U.S. as a recreational sport. Even football, soccer as is called in the U.S. by many is not consider a sport. (When I was growing up I heard a lot people say that tennis was a sport for the upper middle class and rich. I have to be one of the very few working class male in the U.S. that follow tennis, and when I tell people that I like tennis they think is for the wrong reason). Memphis is a small tennis tournament, the media is not going to bother to televise an event which is not going to garner ratings.

Ms. Marija you look like the prettier version of Jelena Janovic.

Here neither, that's why I'm following Dubai. It's strange you can't watch it, since it is a U.S. tournament.

By looking at the stats the first set was over in a blink of an eye. This is textbook revenge, Ivanovic please take note.

This tournament is not being televised in U.S.

I don't know about the free video services right now. Too bad, Dokic won only three games against Wozniacki.

I'm looking forward to the Wozniacki and Dokic match.Does anyone know where on the web I can watch this match for free?
