Passing shots

Nathalie Tauziat will soon be asked to vacate her position on the French Tennis Federation's management committee. Tauziat, a former WTA star who was ranked as high as number 3 in the world, recently testified on behalf of former coach Regis de Camaret, who has been convicted of raping two young female players. Several more women have said that de Camaret raped or sexually assaulted them when they were young.

The Russian version of Glamour has picked Maria Sharapova as its International Star of 2012.

Sugarpova will be launched worldwide early next year.

The Czech Republic is the first nation to win Hopman Cup, Fed Cup and Davis Cup in the same year.

Natalie Tauziat refused to step down in the end. Something is very wrong with this person, she actually employed de Camaret as a coach in her own academy and still rejects all the evidence!

Thanks for the update, Marine. I hadn't heard that. This is an odd situation and I think there must be stuff we don't know. Interesting.
