Stefan Edberg back on court...

Stefan Edberg is one of my all-time crushes. Top five, lifetime. This is famous people crushes I'm talking about. He was the number one tennis player in the world on and off in the early 1990s and the winner of two US Opens, two Wimbledons and two Australian Opens. His serve and volley game was so exciting to watch and so were his increible legs! Anyway, Stefan retired in 1996 but is going to play competitive tennis for the first time in 12 years! He has signed up to play on the BlackRock Tour of Champions in 2008. Pete Sampras announced last mionth that he too was going to play some of the events.
"It's great to hear that Stefan is going to be playing because he's a great guy and a great player," Sampras said in a newspaper interview. "I'm looking forward to playing against him because I always looked up to him with his serve-volley game, his movement and the attitude that he had. I always thought that he was a real gentleman and I'm looking forward to seeing him, talking to him and just seeing how his life is as I haven't spoken to him for many years."
