Marcos Baghdatis at the 2013 Malaysian Tennis Open

 

It was great to see Marcos Baghdatis at the 2013 Malaysian Open Tennis tournament this week.  Yun lang, he didn't win anything.  I thought he had strong ground strokes but it was just average compared to his colleagues.Still, he looks more handsome in person!

The Handsome and Sexy Federico Delbonis of Argentina

Among all the players this year, the most sexy for me, aside from Pablo Andujar was Federico Delbonis of Argentina.  I watched his game today, a very close one against Vasek Pospisil.  Delbonis won, 7-6, 7-6.  He also changed his shirt after the first set.  Very sexy and hairy!!

Meeting Pablo Cuevas of Uruguay

Sorry for the blurred picture but they did not allow us to take pictures with Pablo, I don't know why.  Pity really, but he was a nice guy!  Spoke to him in Spanish!

David Ferrer was the top seed in this year's Malaysian Open.  This was his first match but the only match of his that I saw.  I had to leave the same night back for Manila =(  Anyway, I was just happy to see him play a bit!
