No it is not overinflated, she should know how to behave at a tennis match and keep her big mouth shut. Apparently she rules the roost even to the extent of how Smugfed wears his hair. In this case she should be seen and not heard.
I was always wondering when the cane might make a reappearance.

Like I mentioned, Muger and Stan probably would have had a disagreement, but it's not really either's fault. Stan was defending himself, Fed defending Mirka, which is understandable as her husband. But they are both man enough to resolve the issue. Mirka is at fault here.

 I do think LB has a point though. Mirka's been a pro tennis player herself so should know better than to behave like that at matches.

And someone mentioned it happened before. Anyway I think Fed made sure Stan was on the train before he made up his mind he wouldn't play.

It's been confirmed that Fed will play in the Davis Cup. He was training in Lille today! Hmmm....

Quick recovery ? I think he was scared to play Novak I think Smugfed is a fraud and did not have the guts to play Novak as he knew he would be thrashed.

Whoa, I'm no fan of Fed but that's quite harsh.

Utter tosh. No player would withdraw because they are scared. Least of all Federer who has a reputation and ego to maintain.

Fed has always managed to maintain his reputation as a sportsman while cheating. He would expect that all would believe him as they usually do. Well almost all.

My wish is that France win the Davis cup, Stan wins his match but Fed loses his both his.

Utter tosh is it ? he was apparently fit to start practicing that was a very quick decision and a quick recovery, excuse me but I don't think Mr Federer was being truthful about his so called injury. I find it a bit difficult to swallow I hope the French Davis Cup squad beat him he does not deserve to win.

So Fed's fit to play after all  Of course! He didn't even say he wasn't fit to play! What he said was, "I can't 'compete with Novak at this level'. It would be too risky at my age to do this right now." In other words, he was saying he couldn't play 'well enough to win'! ....and that's not an excuse for pulling out!

Touch the sky - and touch it he did.
