December in Rio de Janeiro. I mean, it really could be worse.

Meeting my mates Fabrice Santoro, Mats Wilander, Wayne Ferreira, Thomas Enqvist and Daniel Marcos in such a city is truly special! 
Here is something special for you. 
Look how Fabrice, Mats, Thomas, Wayne and myself try to do the wrong handed serve. Very professional!
First video Fabrice and myself - just click on the picture...
Here a picture of Thomas serving with his left hand and a video of Mats. Just click on the picture ...
We’ve played on the Copacabana Palace hotel rooftop. Fantastic! Check out all pictures under gallery  ...


I met all my friends in London in December.
My first single match was on Thursday (Day 2) and i played very well. I have not played like this for a long time. 
But Pat was not 100%. He was still suffering from his knee surgery a few weeks ago.
Good luck Pat! Get well soon!

 

And then on Friday (Day 3) i faced my old rival Mats. He beated me 6:2, 7:6. In the first set i was sleeping. I only woke up in the second set!
Mats reached his 1st ever Final in the Royal Albert Hall but lost to John. John played unbelievable, respect! Congratulations Johnny Mac.

 

On Saturday evening my wife and me have been to the Winter Whites Charity Gala at the Royal Albert Hall. It was a beautiful and funny evening. We met a lot of friends and also HRH the Duke of Camebridge, Prince William. It was a great honour to have been there and it's so important to do something for the youth in need. We took a great picture with Mats, Goran and Peter.

 
Almost forgot i was also playing doubles or singles again? Was really unfair- 3 against 1! No, no we had a lot of fun!

Last but not least we went xmas shopping and sightseeing in London ...check out the pictures from London. Please scroll down a bit. 

It was great to meet the musketeers in La Louvière. 

Yannick, Mansour, Guy and me enjoyed playing at the Green Energy 4 Season‘s Legends Cup.

Good crowd, really nice people there.
We will come back!
