Question # 1: Do you prefer the Davis Cup format, with doubles in the middle position, or Fed Cup, where it’s either an irrelevant “dead” rubber or [...]]]> http://www.gototennisblog.com/2010/02/07/fed-cup-decisions-usa-italy-russia-and-czechs-advance-to-semifinals/feed/ 3 http://www.gototennisblog.com/2010/01/16/verdasco-isner-bondarenko-win-australian-open-warm-ups/ http://www.gototennisblog.com/2010/01/16/verdasco-isner-bondarenko-win-australian-open-warm-ups/#comments Sat, 16 Jan 2010 08:34:40 +0000 freakyfrites http://www.gototennisblog.com/?p=15416

We enjoyed a very busy (and photogenic) Day 4 at the US Open on Thursday, catching the Venus and Serena playing doubles, Shahar Peer beating down Carla Suarez Navarro, Sabine Lisicki rolling an ankle after losing her match, and Dinara Safina battling though as always.

Maria Sharapova needed three sets to defeat Alona Bondarenko, 4-6, 6-0, 6-3 at the LA Women’s Tennis Championships on Thursday. “It was good to get my revenge.” Maria said after the match. Bondarenko beat Sharapova in the quarterfinals of the Warsaw Open this May in what was Maria’s first singles tournament since being sidelined with injury.

Young up-and-comers Azarenka, Cibulkova, Alona Bondarenko and Chakvetadze go cheesecake for French FHM. I’d prefer a Tonsga, Monaco, Ferrer and Bolelli bikini shoot, but I guess these photos weren’t meant for me. On a newsy note, Cibulkova beat Bondarenko in the first round of Roland Garros. Azarenka is  still in it but Ana was knocked out of [...]]]> http://www.gototennisblog.com/2009/05/28/hot-stuff-azarenka-cibulkova-bondarenko-chakvetadze-fhm-bikini-photos/feed/ 1
