All things Tennis. One slice at a time.
It was a tough day at the office for Novak Djokovic, who was stretched to his limits to defeat Jo-Wilfried Tsonga 6-1, 5-7, 5-7, 7-6, 6-1 in the Roland Garros quarterfinals. Speaking of the office, Nole’s girlfriend Jelena Ristic was dressed for an office in her nerdy-chic Chanel glasses and khaki trench coat (yet again). [...]
I always appreciate it when a player’s team coordinates their outfits in the box. While Novak Djokovic had a stressful 4-6, 6-7, 6-3, 7-5, 6-3 win over Andreas Seppi in the fourth round, girlfriend Jelena Ristic was preparing for her role as a secret agent in her khaki trench coat, dark sunglasses and large, [...]
It’s never easy to play your idol. PseudoFed would probably (humbly) say that any opponent to face Him feels that way.

Today at Roland Garros Kid’s Day, Andy Murray and Novak Djokovic took the court to play a game, apparently called “splat the penguin.” As a bird-lover, I’m a little unsure of the violence that takes place. Even so, it looks like Andy, Nole and Mats Wilander had a lot of fun in front of the [...]
As always, the Grand Slams are the best place to buy yourself some fun tennis trinkets. Or, perhaps, buy something for me? Wishful thinking. But in case you’re looking for a gift for moi or looking to self purchase, here are my four favorite items from the Roland Garros shop.
For when I need to know [...]
Defending French Open champion Rafael Nadal helped out with the Women’s draw for the upcoming tournament at Roland Garros. You could tell that, just like his matches, Rafa took his role very seriously. He concentrated. He made sure it was fair. But in the end, you could tell he just wanted to take the men’s [...]
Nike’s top two men always look spectaculaire on the court – no matter what continent! Later this month, in France, Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal will look especially exquisite on the red clay of Roland Garros.
