Anyone else get the chills reading Roger Federer’s Facebook update last week? “I just finished my vacation after the ATP Finals in London and had a very nice and relaxing break. I started working out again today and I am looking forward to a lot hard work in the next weeks to get ready for 2010.

Darren Cahill and Brad Gilbert pay homage to Rafael Nadal in this fun instructional piece on “the power forehand.” Brad-the-Rafanatic even dons the doomed hot pink/neon yellow Nike ensemble in honor of the four time French Open champ. Fun stuff, though I don’t think I’ll be trying that buggy-whip follow through any time soon: And I [...]]]> http://www.gototennisblog.com/2009/06/03/french-open-video-brad-gilberts-rafael-nadal-impressin/feed/ 17 http://www.gototennisblog.com/2009/03/23/indian-wells-wrap-good-bad-random/ http://www.gototennisblog.com/2009/03/23/indian-wells-wrap-good-bad-random/#comments Mon, 23 Mar 2009 09:33:27 +0000 freakyfrites http://www.gototennisblog.com/?p=3888 WOW! This year’s Indian Wells tournament packed in as much drama and excitement as a Major. Before we get all worked up over Miami (yep, play begins on Wednesday), let’s take a look at our baker’s dozen of top Indian Wells happenings. 1. Eventual IW champ, Rafael Nadal, scored a miraculous victory over sneaky/scary underachiever David [...]]]> http://www.gototennisblog.com/2009/03/23/indian-wells-wrap-good-bad-random/feed/ 5 http://www.gototennisblog.com/2009/03/14/darren-cahill-gig/ http://www.gototennisblog.com/2009/03/14/darren-cahill-gig/#comments Sat, 14 Mar 2009 11:30:33 +0000 freakyfrites http://www.gototennisblog.com/?p=3460
Well our favorite almost-coach of Roger Federer has finally made up his mind as to what he’s going to do. Adidas confirmed today that the travel-adverse Darren Cahill is formally joining super-trainer Gil Reyes and fellow-coach Sven Groenfeld (known recently for coaching Ana Ivanovic) at its Las Vegas-based Player Development Center. Darren’s spent time at the [...]]]> http://www.gototennisblog.com/2009/03/14/darren-cahill-gig/feed/ 2 http://www.gototennisblog.com/2009/03/11/fedhill-drama-cahill-approached-federer/ http://www.gototennisblog.com/2009/03/11/fedhill-drama-cahill-approached-federer/#comments Wed, 11 Mar 2009 21:18:25 +0000 freakyfrites http://www.gototennisblog.com/?p=3277
The “he said, he said” is already starting now that Cahill and Federer have broken off their brief flirtation. Roger’s agent, Tony Godsick, delivered some reproachful remarks today via Swiss newspaper Blick. Here are the juicy bits, translated with the help of a native speaker: “Darren suddenly felt that the many trips and the long periods away [...]]]> http://www.gototennisblog.com/2009/03/11/fedhill-drama-cahill-approached-federer/feed/ 6 http://www.gototennisblog.com/2009/03/05/federer-and-cahill-the-tennis-worlds-brangelina/ http://www.gototennisblog.com/2009/03/05/federer-and-cahill-the-tennis-worlds-brangelina/#comments Thu, 05 Mar 2009 09:25:54 +0000 freakyfrites http://www.gototennisblog.com/?p=2857
We can stop speculating now (or click here, here, here and here), Darren Cahill is coaching Roger Federer. Which means that the really juicy gossip begins: Are they committed? Will they be good for each other? Can they make it through the rough times? And, most important, will their partnership bear fruit? To make it easier, I’ve [...]]]> http://www.gototennisblog.com/2009/03/05/federer-and-cahill-the-tennis-worlds-brangelina/feed/ 33 http://www.gototennisblog.com/2009/03/04/confirmed-darren-cahill-is-coaching-roger-federer/ http://www.gototennisblog.com/2009/03/04/confirmed-darren-cahill-is-coaching-roger-federer/#comments Thu, 05 Mar 2009 01:15:55 +0000 freakyfrites http://www.gototennisblog.com/?p=2839
IT’S TRUE! Roger Federer’s agent Tony Godsick confirmed via Blick today that Roger Federer is currently training with Darren Cahill in Dubai. Holy rollers, my friends – the speculation is OVER! I repeat, Roger Federer is DEFINITELY  with Darren Cahill, at least on a trial basis.
