Courage isn't absence of fear but mastery of it.

LOL! Imagine the press reaction if Andy did that!
I don't care to imagine it
but I don't think any player today could be quite as outrageous as the likes of Lendl, McEnroe, Connors and Nastase were. They're a long-lost breed unfortunately. I love tennis, but it's way too serious today.

I don't remember seeing that, so what year and which tournament because I didn't even have access to livestreaming until three years ago?

^Monte Carlo Masters 2009, Aileen. This got him to the semi's, where he was defeated by Rafa.
Thanks Gnome, I've seen it before. Andy was so intensely focussed, he couldn't focus (if you know what I mean.)
There's been some controversy over whether Davydenko spat in his hand before the handshake with Andy at the end. Who knows.

Davydenco had another go at Andy. Remember he accused Andy of putting on an act against Neimanen when Andy could barely walk as he had a back injury cant remember the tournament. Davydenco then played against Andy who thrashed him. Seems to be bad blood between them.

That was at last years French Open, Davydenko actually had a go before his match against Andy at Wimbledon

Thanks Linda. I wasn't even a member of MW then, and I'm sure plenty was said about that little outburst.

Kudos to Fed for playing along.
Anyone know what the #FF stands for? (And please remember this is a hate-free thread, folks.)
My input: "Staff have forgotten to supply the letter 'S'. You're fired."

FF is text-speak for Friends Forever.

HaHa! I honestly didn't know that, Aileen.
Still.. I'm open to other suggestions.

#FF also stands for "follow friday" which is a thing on twitter where people recommend their twitter accounts (or other ones they find interesting) in their tweets to other followers to follow on twitter.
I'm not sure that that's actually a genuine photo-I think that may be a clever edit of another picture,which is a trick PF has employed before.Looks to me like the one where Fed held up the sign saying he was supporting the squash bid for the Olympics,though not really sure about that one.
I could be totally wrong though of course,and if I am then all credit to Fed for playing along with the joke.

Could be, Dani. Here's a shot from the Squash Back The Bid promo. Different over-shirt and colour of t-shirt, but anything is possible with photoshop.
And if it is a fake by PF.. well, that's even more hilarious, innit?
