..I was surprised to learn that Jelena Dokic was now playing for Australia again...I saw her playing against Caroline whoever(forgotten her last name because it's a mouthful)in the third round of Australian Open, and it brought back memories of the time when I saw her defeating Martina Hingis in the first round of Wimbledon...
...I really admired here back then..because she showed focus and maturity beyond her young age...but then came her family issues, and she started playing for Yugoslavia...from then on I never heard of her again...or maybe it's my fault because my love affair with tennis had started to dwindle...I never did find anyone to root for in earnest...Marat Safin let me down...He showed great promise but his mental weakness devoured his tennis talent....and the Williams sisters..They come and go...They just play when they feel like it...No one is really dominating tennis these days..I wonder if it's good for the game...Sampras and Agassi, I miss you...Federer isn't charismatic enough for me..
