Saturday night glued to the screen watching the semis.. Söderling lost in the final tie break :/ it was a great day anyhow, my princess turned 2.5 :) I spend all afternoon with her, she sat on my lap and listen and sang her favorite songs for about 2 hours; had her favorite food, she poured milk all over me, called me her "sweet little daddy" and kissed me twice, once in the nose and once in my eye. I wish I could spend more time with her!

the difference between Söderling & Del Potro is that Robin cant turn a defensive position into an offensive one... and Martin can. Damn well too!

Master's week! Thank you Robin :)


I have been streaming some of the action on my MacBook and I can tell you, this is is a great investment.
-the commentators are the human version of google, also, they have been players, referees and ballboys at some point, experience!
-the technology blows my mind, or better , the way they use the technology!
slow motion and time warp plays mixed with all kinds of play and ball bounce analysis, and I mean ALL type of ball bounce analysis!! The game becomes so much more interesting, alive, and inspirational when one can see computerized images of where, statistically, the ball bounces: 1 & 2nd serve, crucial points and break points.
The height where the players hit the ball at different times of the match, early rise or late, behind or in front of the baseline.

off to cheer for Nadal, if he wins, Robin will surely pass on to the semis as number 1 of group B and meet Federer earliest on the finals...

What a tennis weekend, a great one indeed.
Elin G came in 2n place after playing strong tennis.
Luise and Nadja came in 3 place both in the 11 class. Long and quite developing matches for the youngsters :)


The coaches education went well as always. It is so much fun to hold this seminars and help young coaches along in their development.. what it is even more giving is when the participants are eager about the subject and energetic to earn experience and develop their players.

1500kr gets you a one day ticket to the Barclay's Masters in London. 200kr an unlimited pass to stream all of the matches live an even watch them on demand. For 500kr all of the Masters tournaments for a year. I know now what I'm gonna get myself for Christmas :)

Robin starts tomorrow, the odds for him into making the semifinals are agaisnt him, but a tennis party will take take this week regardless :)

this match was doubtless one the most emotionally filled ones this year..
it gives me chiils just thinking about how it would feel to be in Monfils place, a finalist playing a homematch!

hmmm... I was googling a little of everything - too keep my thoughts of my itching tattoo - when I came across this article about a colleague of mine who works in Vallentuna - where the ATA was gonna train under the Björn Borg weekend.
Crazy Board I say!!

3 back in business!!

alright, was up half the night, not at Oscar's this time, but fixing the blog-which is finally up, NOT thanks to you Daniela :P
Best with the blog and the new settings is that now i can Iphone the entries and update all 3 accounts at once, Facebook, twitter and blogger. To the right you will find the twitter updates, which are most often news on coming up events, posts on what's going on, and tournaments pics.
enjoy :)
