All we read is the injury (from last fall) needs strengthening, 'I will...make sure the back injury is fully rehabilitated...'<BR/><BR/>Mkay.oddmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16578543002153784482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-757702474597183495.post-64892107256985455892009-02-17T13:49:00.000-05:002009-02-17T13:49:00.000-05:00CP I haven't done a "what's wrong with US tennis" ...CP I haven't done a "what's wrong with US tennis" post in quite some time. I was one of the voices crying in the wilderness about the coming crisis in US tennis back in 2003.<BR/><BR/>The WS aren't going to be around forever. Blake is 29. Andy Roddick has issues that he's trying to work on.<BR/><BR/>I think what is being addressed in the blog post is that the predicted takeover of both the men's and women's game by Serbia hasn't happened. It is impressive for a small country that has the same size population as New York City to have three players at the top of their sport. It's just that more was expected in some quarters.Savannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15079111598976360942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-757702474597183495.post-24444764608592949362009-02-17T13:20:00.000-05:002009-02-17T13:20:00.000-05:00ESPN had an interesting reader comment:one Serbian...ESPN had an interesting reader comment:<BR/><BR/>one Serbian male and two Serbian women ranked in the top ten. Shame to the Serbian Nation!! Can anyone think of a country that has EXACTLY the same distribution of top players? Hint: It has a population of 300 million to Serbia's 8 million. We are a great nation, but stopped being a great tennis nation years ago especially on the men's side. Let's try to fix this first before we denegrate the Serbs.cphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11687920700030899364noreply@blogger.com
