That sounds like the title of a movie. Wait, that was The Italian Job. Not really the same concept.
Jelena Jankovic is looking for a coach. Even though she said she was going to cut back on the number of tournaments she played this year, she hasn’t really slowed down a lot. Kinda hard to find […]

I may not like Maria Sharapova too much, but I’m not a complete jerk and I’ll give credit where credit is due. Sharapova rolled No. 1 Justine Henin in the quarterfinals of the Australian Open in a dominant 6-4, 6-0 show.

The whole population of tennis followers knew Jelena Jankovic’s schedule was too ridiculously full. She wore herself out. I was wondering if Jankovic knew she was overbooked. Turns out she does.
“I’m going to cut back,” said the Serbian to Charles Bricker of the Sun-Sentinel in Florida.

Sometimes heat is just…it just sucks, you know? You could just be walking along and realize, wow, it’s hot outside. More often than not, when I was growing up, I had to work outside. In the middle of the summer at about 1 or 2 in the afternoon, you really began to wish you were […]
