I love the word from Sergio Garcia to credits for Dani about his good form :) ....now that i'm starting to like him

Verdi: Garcia's confidence coming around at just the right time
...
A month or so ago, you said you weren't too confident about being on Europe's Ryder Cup team.

"Well, I wasn't too excited about my game at the time. But after the PGA Championship, I made a little deal with a friend of mine. We should keep our heads up, no matter what happens."

A fellow golfer friend?

"No, a tennis player, Daniela Hantuchova. We have been friends for a while and see each other when we can. The idea was, when we are playing our sports, not to get too down when things don't go well."

Thanks for posting this, Jean Raj. No matter what Daniela is doing on the court, it's good for us to remember that acts like this truly are her best and most significant victories. When her ESPN Magazine cover came out, I felt I could handle it a lot better if whatever she was paid for the shoot went to charity. Perhaps this settles that.
In relation to Dani on that cover in her birthday suit, permit me one final observation. In the photo, Daniela sports a neat little grin. My two daughters are now grown, but as younger children they participated in a local theater adaptation of the Broadway play "Annie". One of the songs from the play became a favorite of mine, and actually is a nice motto to live by. However, the cover photo casts some doubt on how true it actually is. The name of the song....drum roll, please...."You're Never Fully Dressed Without A Smile" :!: :!: :o



Let's Go, Daniela!

Daniela Hantuchova - interview

"If even one person will be happy because of me,
it means that it was worth the trouble. "

Born in Poprad, Czechoslovakia (now Slovakia) Daniela Hantuchova is a professional tennis player since May 1999. She has a lot of sporting success, including four wins in singles and nine in doubles WTA tournaments. In 2002, he won the prestigious tournament in Indian Wells, and really helped represent Slovakia in the first place winning the Fed Cup championship.
in 2005 triumphed in the tournament Hopman Cup in Perth Australia with Dominic Hrbatym. In January 2003 came to 5 place in the world ranking tennis players, and now it is the 18th position in the world. This year, for the third time will represent Slovakia at the Summer Olympics. Daniel is very involved in charitable activities. Is unmarried and lives in Monte Carlo (Monaco), and was one of the adidas global ambassadors.

Daniel Hantuchova off the court

do you remember the day when you realized that tennis will become a part of your life?
was when I was five years old. I sat in the living room with my grandmother and I saw on television, like Milos Mecir won the gold medal at the Olympics in Seoul. I turned to my grandmother and said, "One day I too will go to the Olympics." This year, for the third time at the Olympics occur.

few people can boast of attending a prestigious tennis academy bollettieriego nickname. you managed to get to the level where you had individual workouts with the famous coach. how do you remember that time?
I was fourteen years old when the agency got me training at his tennis academy for two weeks before the tournament. However, trained in large groups, so I could hit the forehand every five minutes. Fortunately Bollettieri come watch me play. He immediately told me that he wanted me to stay. I knew he trained Williamskiego, Agassi, Courier, Sampras, so it's understandable that I was grateful for this great opportunity. You could say that this was one of the key steps in my career.

a definite breakthrough came in 2002 ...
Then I won the Indian Wells tournament, after defeating Martina Hingis in the final, which was then the number one in the world. I remember quite well the events preceding the tournament. It was my first major final, and Martin talked extensively in the media, how easy it will be me and how I tremble and get excited during a match. Fortunately, almost never read the comments and I was not afraid at all. Inside, I felt confident and strong, which resulted in a score.

people can be very cruel sometimes. when sailing on the wave of success, love you, but once you lose the match, many immediately begins to judge you. do not you think it's unfair?
Several times sacrificed their personal tournaments to help the team return to our world-class. Those who know me, know how much effort I put into it and appreciate it. But in Slovakia, people are often negative attitude and I think over time we got used to it. It's part of our mentality. Win in the Fed Cup in 2002, came the day before a very important match for me, which was preparing the whole year. It was to be one of the main points of my career. Coach told me that if I wanted him to win, I can not occur in the Fed Cup. But the tournament was a great opportunity for Slovakia and I could not go myself just let it go. We won. Understandably, other plans have failed. Even though I did not hear "thank you". And now I read in the paper that I did not want even to represent the country! It's sad, but I try not to take too much of such messages to each other.

You're close fashion. if she would like to be involved also in its creation?
I can imagine yourself designing clothes, for example, for adidas. In my experience, what criteria must be met in order for clothing was not only comfortable, but also functional. I think also that I have a sense of beauty, I know the colors, cuts and design, the compact style of clothes.

whether your ideas and opinions are taken into account in innovation adidas tennis?
When I get a new collection, the company has always convey their opinions. In this way we can affect some properties of future products, but I understand also that the tennis, as opposed to football or athletics, not playing the first violin in the sport.

years are very much involved in charitable fundraising. you even have your own foundation. also have gained a lot of support through the calendars, which pozowałaś. income from the sale is donated to the needs of children in Cambodia. where such an idea?
Five or six years ago I went with my brother and his girlfriend to Monaco. The idea came spontaneously. We told ourselves that we are really lucky in life and it's time we gave happiness to those who need it most. We have put together an excellent team to work and spent the calendar. My brother's partner, Lucia, contacted me with the people who runs the project is for children living with HIV in Cambodia. I had no doubt - I knew the project, its funding was completely transparent, and the money was to save the lives of children.

Yes,eddy,it was Sears in 2002. The YEC was played in Los Angeles that year,and the format was the 16 top ranked individuals played each other in a knock-out competition. In beating Spain,Daniela overcame Conchita Martinez in a 3hr 25 min epic. Understandably,she was exhausted coming into LA and lost in the 1st round to Maggie Maleeva. If Sears did give Daniela grief for that episode,well lets just say he lived down to my expectations. :roll:
