    Contact: Matt Van Tuinen MVT PR 773-525-5360 [email protected] FORMER WORLD NO. 1 AND GRAND SLAM CHAMPION ANA IVANOVIC GRANTED WILDCARD FOR PILOT PEN TENNIS Serbian Star Attracts Fans Both On And Off The Court NEW HAVEN, Conn., August 5, 2010 – Former World No. 1 and Grand Slam champion Ana Ivanovic has been granted a wildcard into Pilot Pen Tennis at Yale, an Olympus US Open Series event on the ATP World Tour and Sony Ericsson WTA Tour, to be held August 20-28 at the Connecticut Tennis Center at Yale, it was announced today by Anne Worcester, tournament director. The 22-year old Serbian star will be making her first trip to New Haven, where she will be seeking the ninth title of her career. Two years ago Ivanovic had a magical season that included the French Open title, a runner-up finish at the Australian Open, and the World No. 1 ranking. The following year in 2009 was filled with nagging injuries that caused inconsistency and left her without a title for the first time since 2005, but she did reach the finals at Indian Wells, and the fourth round of the French Open and Wimbledon. This year she has reached the semifinals at Brisbane and in Rome. “I am excited to make my first visit to the Pilot Pen,” said Ivanovic. “I have been working hard on my game, and hope that I can play well and capture the title. I’ve heard great things about this event, and hope that this could be the first of many more trips to New Haven.” Ivanovic is a star that transcends the sport, with model-looks that have graced the covers of numerous magazines around the world.

  • Men Respond to Women's Tennis Grunts with Armpit Farts by Con Chapman
    Men Respond to Women's Tennis Grunts With Armpit Farts by Con Chapman WIMBLEDON, England. When it began with Monica Seles, it seemed innocuous, or merely annoying. But now, say old school tennis champs including Martina Navratilova and Chris Evert, the practice of grunting by women's tennis players when they hit a shot has become a technique to rattle an opponent, a violation of the sport's high standards of etiquette. Monica Seles: She started it. “It used to be I could get away from my job and relax by watching tennis,” says Dr. Nigel Holcomb, an obstetrician at London's St. Mark's Hospital. “Now I hear the same grunting out here that we get during a forceps delivery of a twelve-pound baby.” Francesca Schiavone: “Aaargh—double aargh!” Available online at «http://fictionaut.com/stories/con-chapman/men-respond-to- womens-tennis-grunts-with-armpit-farts» Copyright © 2011 Con Chapman. All rights reserved. The dominance of the grunters has enticed spectators away from the men's matches, as sadists and those with a more straightforward prurient interest flock to the stands to hear the sounds women make when they are really, truly satisfied with a shot. “It was like a ghost town out here today,” said John Isner of his two-hour match against Nicholas Mahut at Wimbledon yesterday. “Usually the spectators just look dead.” “Brrrrrip” So Isner and Mahut decided to do something about their plight, and began to engage in friendly but competitive armpit farts, at first just between points but later, as the match progressed, after baseline ground strokes as well.
