Default Mary Pierce Training at Bolleterri
(wonder if the organizers of the French are keeping a WC handy?)


http://nickstennispicks.com/2009/02/...ce-in-the-gym/

Nick's commenting about Mary (and Jelena Dokic) working out down at Bolleterri. No comeback date, but the comments are that she's working out hard down there. May well be that she never returns to the Tour, but it's nice to see she hasn't given up yet.

Don't know if they are there together (the photos and blurb on Nick's site don't let you know), but there could not be a better peson for Jelena to have within reach than Mary Pierce. So many of the same issues, so much commonality to their games, and I'm sure Mary would have some very wise words for Jelena as Dokic continues her comeback efforts.

Mary! I will always love seeing her name in print. I'm not holding out a lot of hope, but maybe I'll get to see her play another match before she officially retires.

I'm wondering if, just because everyone will be there, Mary might pull a Guga and show up in the desert next week, Beau. Wouldn't that be swellegant?

Allez Mah-ree!

Moose, that's a great point about Mary and Jelena talking. Very similar games and backgrounds.

Mary and Jelena are similar? I would never have thought that.

Plus, Mary can serve.

Both are right handers with two handed backhands, whose success in any match specifically hinges on the effectiveness of an extremely powerful forehand. Both have been prone to nagging injuries their entire career. Both have gotten to points of great fitness, and cover the court decently, but also can tend to get out of shape if they are not pushing themselves. Both are power players, yet have had a lot of success on red clay.

And that's not even mentioning multiple citizenships, overbearing daddies, relationships with professional athletes, Bolleterri connections,...

Come to think of it, has anyone ever seen Mary and Jelena in the same room at the same time?

The only real similarity I see between both players is that they're both drama queens.

Everyone knows Moose is taking about Jelena Dokic and not Jankovic, right?

! LOL.

I was gonna say. I don't think I've seen Jankovic's daddy once! Reading is fundamental.

Dokic is no slouch in the tata department, Bea.



though to be honest, I always used to credit her, when she was at her peak phyiscally, for having the single finest heiney in womens sports:

If anyone can make a comeback it's Pierce.
