A trio of aces...

.novak.jpgNovak Djokovic is the third best tennis player in the world and at 20, a major heartthrob. On Sunday, he won his fifth tournament of 2007 in Vienna. But things get a little tougher this week at the Madrid Masters because the two players ranked above him - Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal - are also in the draw. I think Novak is the best thing to happen in tennis in a long time not just because he's not afraid to knock off the big guys, but because he's thoughtful, articulate and has shown he is a lot of fun with his dead-on imitations of various players and post-match tradition of taking off his shirt and throwing it into the crowd.
While Novak was busy winning his tournament, Federer and Nadal arrived in Madrid and posed wth statues of themselves. The statues are nice, but they don't do either of these very attractive champions justice!
