All things Tennis. One slice at a time.
Lovely ladies of the WTA, including Elena Vesnina, Julia Goerges, Ana Ivanovic, Jelena Jankovic, Caroline Wozniacki (with Rory McIlroy!) and Andrea Petkovic, attended Players’ Opening Night in Stuttgart, Germany. Take a peek at the event at the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix:

Professional golfer (former world no.1) Martin Kaymer of Germany was in Stuttgart today to support the German girls during their Fed Cup tie against Australia. Seems Martin also used his celebrity to get himself closer to the damen. See the typical guy move above, coming down and talking to the whole group. But we know [...]
Andrea Petkovic came in second place for Germany’s Sportswoman of the Year award this year. The German star finished with 2,002 votes while first place went to three-time biathlon world champion Magdalena Neuner with 4,260 votes. Skier Maria Riesch finished in third place with 1,849.
Despite the silver finish, Petkovic performed her famous “Petko dance” with [...]
From every angle, Serena Williams was absolutely smashing in her Burberry dress at the WTA Tour Pre-Wimbledon Party tonight in London. The defending Wimbledon champion even tweeted her thanks to Christopher Bailey and Burberry before arriving to the party.
Drop dead gorgeous in red, Maria Sharapova wore a head-to-toe ensemble from the fashion house [...]

Forgive me, but I love a good analogy. Upon hearing about the cloudy weather over Key Biscayne, I thought to myself, wouldn’t it be interesting in Caroline “Sunshine” Wozniacki lost today? She’s No.1 in the world and about to face an up-and-coming German star, Andrea Petkovic. I also thought to myself, as much as I’d [...]
Although it was all business today, it was all fun and games for Andrea Petkovic yesterday, who played in a water pool at Grand Slam Oval on her day off.

The practice courts at the US Open were as busy as a beehive, with appearances by John Isner and Maria Kirilenko (pictured above). WTA Tour number 1 doubles player Liezel Huber and her partner, Nadia Petrova practiced on court number 5, as did up-and-comer Andrea Petkovic (who benefited from a walkover yesterday).
The wildly entertaining Andrea Petkovic is definitely a player to watch. Last night, we saw her whip out her ball crushing skills (rather than humor) against Russian Nadia Petrova, defeating her 6-2, 4-6, 7-6. Petrova was favored to win the match, but with some pain that hindered her (she called out the trainer during the [...]
