  • Publiekslievelingen Mansour Bahrami En Henri Leconte Nieuwe Namen Optima Open 2013
    Persbericht Publiekslievelingen Mansour Bahrami en Henri Leconte nieuwe namen Optima Open 2013 Knokke-Heist, 24 april – Naast Boris Becker en Yannick Noah, bevestigden nu ook Mansour Bahrami en Henri Leconte hun komst naar Optima Open. Deze toptennissers van weleer zijn nog steeds heel geliefd bij de fans van tennis uit de gloriejaren ’80. Naast een hoogstaand staaltje tennis staan Bahrami en Leconte garant voor enkele matchen vol humor en onvergetelijk tennisplezier. Van 15 tot 18 augustus treden deze voormalige dubbelspelpartners terug in de spotlight voor de nieuwe editie van Optima Open in Knokke- Heist. Mansour Bahrami, afkomstig uit Iran, is een geboren entertainer en hoogstwaarschijnlijk de grappigste figuur uit tennisland. Hij staat bekend om zijn hilarische kunstjes op het tennisveld. Bekijk de compilatie hier. Dit natuurtalent houdt er een uitzonderlijk levensverhaal op na. Bahrami is een selfmade man die al observerend als ballenjongen het spel leerde. Deze graag geziene toptennisser met zijn opvallende snor en aanstekelijke lach leerde tennis spelen met bezemstelen en pannen omdat hij zich geen racket kon veroorloven. Nadat door de Islamitische Revolutie professioneel tennis verboden werd in Iran, vluchtte hij naar Frankrijk. Tijdens Optima Open zal hij elke dag zijn beste tennis laten zien tijdens een dubbelspel. De Fransman Henri Leconte neemt voor de vierde keer deel aan Optima Open en het publiek ziet hem nog altijd graag langskomen. Vorig jaar zorgde hij zelfs voor een kleine verfrissing voor alle toeschouwers op een zinderend hete dag. Bekijk het filmpje hier. De voormalige nummer 5 van de wereld speelde in 1988 de finale van Roland Garros en beleeft nog steeds evenveel plezier aan het spel.

    News Release 26 November 2018 DJOKOVIC, NADAL, FEDERER IN TOP 3 YEAR-END ATP RANKINGS FOR RECORD 7TH TIME, FIRST TIME SINCE 2014 PONTE VEDRA BEACH, FLORIDA — The ATP World Tour today published the 2018 year-end ATP Rankings on ATPWorldTour.com after an exciting season of milestones and breakthroughs. The trio of Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer finished in the Top 3 ATP Rankings for the seventh time (2007-11, 2014, 2018), the first since 2014. All three players ranked No. 1 at one stage during the year and it was the first time all three ranked No. 1 during the same season. There were five changes in the year-end Top 10 from the previous season for the second year in a row, including first-timers No. 6 Kevin Anderson and No. 10 John Isner, both former U.S. collegiate standouts. The last time at least two former college players finished in the Top 10 was in 1989 when John McEnroe, Brad Gilbert and Jay Berger accomplished the feat. Other players returning to the Top 10 were World No. 1 Novak Djokovic, who was No. 12 at the end of 2017, No. 5 Juan Martin del Potro, who equaled his year- end best from 2013, the last time he was in the Top 10, and No. 9 Kei Nishikori, who jumped from No. 22 last year. For the first time in ATP Rankings history (since 1973), players from five different regions of the world were represented in the Top 10. Six players from Europe and one each from Africa, Asia, North and South America comprised the Top 10.
