Quote of the Week
January 28 , 2008: "When one gets beaten by somebody better, one has to know how to lose with humility. Sure, I could have served better. Sure, I could have hit my forehand harder. But the truth was this was like an avalanche, and there was no way to stop it."
— Rafael Nadal, impressed with Jo-Wilfried Tsonga after the unseeded Frenchman routed him 6-2, 6-3, 6-2 in the Australian Open semis.January 28 , 2008: "If I loved a guy as much as I love my dog, the guy would be in serious trouble because I'm all over that dog, all of the time."
— Maria Sharapova, on her great love for her Pomeranian pooch, Dolce, in The Times (UK).
January 2 , 2008: "There shouldn't be a heat rule regardless. We're athletes. If you don't put in the hard yards, don't play. So it's only fair the ATP [doesn't]. We're only playing three sets too; if you can't cope with that, then get another job."
