    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.

  • Tennis Australia Submission to the Joint Select Committee On
    Tennis Australia Submission to the Joint Select Committee on Gambling Reform June 2011 Tennis Australia Joint Select Committee Inquiry Submission Joint Select Committee on Gambling Reform Preliminary Notes to Terms of Reference In regard to the Terms of Reference of the Gambling Reform review as detailed, Tennis Australia would like to note that there are two very distinctive elements under review, that of the regulatory frameworks governing gambling and betting, and the broader social issue of problem gambling. 1. Regulatory review: As an opening comment, it is important to note that there is in reality a very low incidence of match fixing and corrupt activities within Australian sport, and that the major Australian professional sports generally do an excellent job in regulating their competitions and participants to the full extent that our powers allow. It is often the case however, that sporting organisations themselves have no capacity to police inappropriate activities. To address corrupt sport gambling activities that occur outside the jurisdiction of major professional sports, significant regulatory review is required. While the national and international governing bodies of tennis have in place stringent codes and penalties to deal with the participants in our sports and others over whom we have some control, we have no capacity to investigate or prosecute the corrupt activities of those operating outside our direct control. It is the activities of these criminals and corrupt individuals that have the capacity to bring the integrity of our sport into question, and significant legislative review is required to empower the legal system to take action against these persons.
