Simon is injured since years, terrible back pains, therefore he's always a no go for me. He couldn't carry his bags during last USO, his coach or his wife carry it for him. Yet he manages to win some matches, otherwise he wouldn't be ranked #13. Good luck!

abolo, any source for simon's back injury or are you joking?

Everything was on his blog, in french:
http://simon-gillou.skyrock.com/ He spoke a lot about it last summer then suddenly stopped. He have a very straight back, nothing can be done. He says the pain comes and goes. |

thanks, abolo
is there a site that lists tennis players' blogs? |
|
By:
I don't know. I don't think many players have a blog, and when they have, i doubt they put anything important on it. I don't really know why Simon spoke openly about his physical problems, it can give confidence to his opponents. Nieminen's one is interesting too, as far i remember.

remember reading somewhere it is illegal to post anything that could possibly affect the match on a blog
no idea if it's true though |

Yes i heard so. It's probably to prevent some smart guys to mislead the opponents in citing fake injuries, but they can do it in during the match anyway, limping like if they was on the verge of death and then running like rabbits

isn't it more code of conduct rather than rule?, so that they don't comment on every injury they may have before matches. Lisicki tweeted about hers and I don't think anyone minds if say Soderling will. Not that he does much now, the guy just tweets about his favourite online store and that he feels like blueberry-soup... don't know what that means but then i'm not Swedish
