    2012 News Page 1 of 18 The Website of Maria Bueno, Tennis Champion 2012 NEWS ROGER FEDERER VISITS SAO PAULO, 6-9 December 2012 The Gillette Federer Tour kicked off Roger’s first South American visit in Sao Paulo, Brazil, last week and he was keen to involve Maria in the proceedings. The two met at the Player Party, where Roger was joined by Maria Sharapova, Caroline Wozniacki, Victoria Azarenka, Serena Williams, Jo-Wilfried Tsonga and the Bryan Brothers. Roger invited Maria to hit with him so he could see her legendary backhand for himself and arrangements were made for them to take to the court laid at the Ibirapuera indoor arena. Maria instructed him not to hit ‘anything spinny’, to which Roger replied that he would play her like he does with his parents and afterwards admitted she was way much better than them! Later he posted a picture of them on his Facebook page, saying: “About to play tennis Maria Esther Bueno… she has won 19 Grand Slam titles (7 singles, 11 doubles and 1 mixed)… she still plays amazing!” As for Maria, she was just astonished at how well he hit the ball. “He sliced one backhand that sped off the court like it had skidded off a line,” she said. “I said: Whoa! What was that? And he just laughed! “It was a fantastic experience and I think he enjoyed it too!” The two players swapped gifts – she gave him a framed photograph, which she signed ‘You are simply the best’ while he presented her with one of his rackets, personally signed on the handle.

USTA MISSION STATEMENT: “To promote and develop the growth of tennis…” The USTA mission is clear and concise and a call to action for all of us who care about this great sport. Tennis is indeed a sport for everyone and can change the lives of those who call themselves tennis players. The health benefits of the game are now in the mainstream. One can not only have fun playing and competing on the tennis court, but it is evident that the sport can also help improve one’s overall health and emotional and mental well-being by playing tennis on a regular basis. There is one group of players where the game of tennis is truly a life changer and that group is those that play the sport of tennis in the wheelchair. Perhaps you’re a coach like me who knew that tennis was played in a wheelchair but were removed from that part of our great game.
