Passing shots

Sabine Lisicki has hired--crazy drum roll, please--Ricardo Sanchez to be her coach. How long do we think that will last?

Svetlana Kuznetsova has stopped wearing Fila--after all these years--and is now sporting Qiaodan outfits. Along with Kim Clijsters, Kuznetsova was the face of Fila for a very long time.

Chris Evert and Lindsay Davenport will play themselves on a new episode of CSI, which airs tomorrow in the USA. Cheesy, but interesting, I suppose.

Martina Navratilova recently played a disgruntled Yelp reviewer on IFC's Portlandia. She received excellent reviews for her performance.

Marija at women's tennis blog always does a great job covering tennis fashion. Here is her Australian Open review.

Here's the math for calculating who can be number 1 in the world after the Australian Open.

I didn't see that one coming. I think it will have a short life.

Regarding Sanchez: Recently, in the interview in which he talked about his admiration of Aga, he said that he was one of the best coaches on the tour. I'm thinking that maybe he is. He coached JJ to the number 1 ranking, and he coached Nadia out of what looked like might be a permanent slump. He has his work cut out for him with Lisicki. She has a lot of talent, but seems fragile. They both like drama, so we should just sit back and enjoy.
