Just reading through "main content" for the first time and i was just thinking a couple of things.


1) Placement: well he;s not there anymore. Could it not be like "Trained in" or "Training" or something like that.

2) Also for Hobbies, does he box himself or is he just a fan of boxing? I wasn;t aware he partook in the sport. But i may be wrong.

3) Maybe a section on favourite sports, rather than just his hobbies. Just a few ideas.

I've changed the placement part now.

Regarding boxing - he boxed with Khan and is going to do an exhibition kick-boxing match later this month so I guess we can assume he plays. But obviously he likes to watch it too.

No idea if he actually does Karting...

I'll try to. Smile

But it's tough and I'm not that good with news articles as I'm with normal sites.

Karting:

Quote
If all this might be happening a little too fast for a player who takes life at a languid pace, it is because there is never time to sit still in tennis. The sport moves from continent to continent at breakneck speed and that Murray went go-karting yesterday as a means of getting Saturday out of his system suggests that he is going to deal comfortably with the accelerating demands on his still-growing body.

Full article


It's happened a few other times as well.

Can't find anything Federer related.  confused

I'm sure he said something along the lines of 'I used to say that the spanish players were my favourites, but seeing how rounded Federer's game is shows that he's the one to look up to...'

:p Thank goodness for that. Coria has a terrible reputation on th Tour. He's as unpopular as Kafelnikov used to be.

I know Agassi is his all time hero, but I did read that Fed was his favourite player. Sorry no linky. I've forgotten where I read or heard it.
