Kim Clijsters and Brian Lynch Back SOS Children’s Villages

World-famous tennis player Kim Clijsters and her family support the work of SOS Children’s Villages. Kim Clijsters on her new role: “Children are our future. I’m awfully fond of children and find it very important that they should grow up in a family, with the support and security they need and where they can grow up to become strong human beings. There are still too many children who do not have this chance. I had the opportunity to see for myself how SOS Children’s Villages works with vulnerable children. What they do for them is very impressive. That is why I would like to support them as much as possible. Together with SOS Children’s Villages, I would like to stand up for this important basic right for every child: the right to a family.”

Do you think Federer will get his nr.1 rank back next year?

I honestly wouldn’t count him out yet. He is the current champion of Australian open. Hard courts have always been his favourite surface(and grass). This year was a bit worse than usually but he still has 8 years straight with winning at least 1 GS/year. And remember 2008? Same thing, only 1 GS win (US open) to Fed in -08 but next year, 2009, he won French open and Wimbledon and reached into final in Australian open and US open. So he was in the finals every time. So, you could imagine it might very well happen again next year…

And he did make some records again this year too, by reaching the semifinals in US open, Federer achieved his 20th match win in 2010 grand slams; this is the seventh consecutive year he has accomplished this feat, a record matched only by Ivan Lendl.

And besides, Rafa will have a lot to defend next year.
CLT, I ment NEXT year. During next year.

Why doesn’t Maria Sharapova go back to the O3 White? And what racket is she playing with?

She won two grand slam, and, I think, 9-10 titles with it. She switched because of her bad shoulder at the time, but she’s said herself that its not bothering her. Anyone know why she wouldn’t switch back to the racket with which she reached the pinical? Thanks.
AND P.S. WHAT is that racket she’s using now?
