I know sometimes it can be a bit scary to start posting in a player forum where everyone seems to know each other so well, so this is a thread where the new people to the forum can introduce themselves to the rest of us and it can be an entry into the rest of the forum :)

So everyone feel free to tell us whatever you would like :) What you would like to be called (name/screenname), location, other favorite players, etc :)

:wavey:

Hopefully this will help people not be afraid to start posting here and we can all learn a little bit about eachother. :D


Also, now we have a list of all Novak fans here, so if you want to look up someone's name or location...well.. you can! :D

Hello
Im silvy from Buenos Aires -Argentina
Im a big fan of Roger. Lots of years ago I started to like tennis thanks to him. with the years you like other tennis, learn about them and enjoy their games
Novak is to me the best thing that happen to tennis after Roger. he is such a big talent
So my fave players are Roger, Novak, Del Potro, Chiudinelli. I also love Richard gasquet, tomas berdych Safin and Moya

Great thread,Jess!Finally one of us got the idea to open it!
My name is Adelina but you all can call me Ady.my screen name adynadal is formed by my nick name Ady and the last name of my favorite player(at least he was before i found Nole,nowadays i am separated between these two) Rafael Nadal,it`s something like Mrs Nadal,Ady Nadal...anyway..it`s so silly:rolleyes: !!!i am almost 17,i`m from Bulgaria and i`ve been in love with tennis for the last 6 years!it`s my biggest passion,my first real love,all my friends(including boyfriends) know that they should share me with tennis..my "first lover" was Marat,then i found Ferrero,Roddick,J. Johansson,then Rafa appeared,after him Betdych,Tursunov,Ancic and finally Nole...if you want anything alse to know-just ask!i`d love to know all of you!WELCOME!!!:wavey:

Great thread Jess! You look great on that picture with Ilija! I always blush,and go red when about to take photo with someone 'famous'
Well,I wasn't really creative when 'designing' my screen name. Jelena is my name and 78 stands for the year I was born - 1978.
Like many other people from here,I lived in 4 countries:eek: :drink:
Actually all the time in the same place -Belgrade,
but born in SFR Yugoslavia,then since 1992 it was called SR Yugoslavia,then later
Serbia & Montenegro,and finally SERBIA!:worship:
I'm 29,love sports,especially football,basketball,tennis,...
Volcanos fascinate me.
I like to travel,this year I've been to Prague,Venice and Barcelona:)
My favourite ones are Nole and Janko,Fed:worship:
I also like Gonzo,Youzhny,Moya,Baghdatis,Murray,Ancic.
:wavey:

I'm Cassie, 20, live in the US.
I got into tennis in 2004 thanks to Marat Safin. I'm still a big fan of him, but Nole has surpassed him since last year or so. What I love about Nole is his dedication, ambition to tennis and his great personality. :worship:

hello!
i am new here..my name is Tal,from Israel and next week i will become 18.

i love novak, Robredo and marat.

i also love to travel around the world.just came back from Thailand:rolleyes: i was also in Serbia (actually in Montenegro when they were still united :) )

Hope to enjoy in this forum :)

Great idea. I've always wanted to post in Nole's board. :)

I'm Nina. I'm from the US, but I'm only staying for as long as I have to. I love to travel and I do quite often, especially to South/Central America and Europe, and I want to live in other parts of the world. Unfortunately I have to wait a few years for that (I'm one of MTF's younger members. ;))

My favorite tennis players are Federer, Nadal, Nole, Berdych, Gasquet, Marat, Nieminen, Hyung-Taik Lee, Tursunov, Andreev, Davydenko, Murray (and his brother Jaime), and Knowles and Nestor... The list goes on. I think it would be easier for me to list the players I don't like. :D

My name is Kirstii and I live in Ireland. My favourite mens tennis players are Nole, Jamie Murray, Janko, Bogdanovic and Fish. I got into tennis by watching Anna Kournikova playing and never really liked watching men's tennis until about a year ago.
I love to play tennis and other sports. Also dancing and hanging out with my mates. I would love to travel, but as I'm only 14 I have to go to the places my parents bring me.

Hey :wavey:

I'm Anne-Claire, I'm 24 and live in Paris!

I used to watching RG on TV since I was a kid but started to travel to tennis tournament in a regular basis since 2001. By that time my fav player was Arnaud Clément but Nole surpassed him 2 years ago and became my real Number 1 lol :)
I like Nole's game and his behaviour on et off court!
I like tennis of course, fashion, travelling, photography...
My fav players are Nole, Arnaud, and all the serbian team (Tipsy, nenad, ana) ;) I've recently discovered Gulbis from latvia and he plays great tennis and is very nice, he's very talented and he'll be probably the next young gun!!

That's all, this presentation thread is a great idea by the way :p

Heya all :)

Some already know me, but it never hurts to go public again :) I'm Goran, from Belgrade (hey, Serbians, where are you?!?!), translator and musician. Of course, I'm rooting for everyone in the Serbian Squad (Ana, Jelena, Nole, Janko, Nenad...), and I don't have a clear favorite elsewhere, but I do like to watch Fed, Rafa (I don't feel obliged to choose, sorry :)) and Gonzo. Dislikes: Roddick (too neurotic for my taste), Hewitt (ditto), Ljubicic (boring as hell), Davydenko (reminds me of a malnourished Russian child and also boring as hell).

Godmother Jess :bowdown: :lol:

Hi everyone, I'm Zahirah :bigwave: I'm from Malaysia but I'm studying in Sydney, Australia.

I've watched tennis since I was a really small kid (blame it on my dad :rolleyes: :p) but I used to find it awfully boring.. I only really got into it a few years ago when I watched Gasquet playing at Wimbledon on TV :eek:

As you could tell from my signature (and my avvy :lol:) I adore Ernests Gulbis, Nole, Mario, Andy Murray, his brother Jamie and his partner Eric, Richie, Ana Ivanovic and Lucie Safarova. I also support other people to a lesser degree... eg: Roger, Jelena J, Tim Henman, Berdych... the list goes on :p


... and my biggest weakness is using too many emoticons :tape:

And oh. I'm a Marko-tard too. :angel:

Some of you know me already, but here we go: I'm Jelena too. (a lot of Jelena's in Serbia, I know). Explaining my nickname is a bit complicated but it has something to do with a certain witch. I'm 26 (only for 20 more days :bigcry:), from Belgrade. soon to graduate sociology and working as a choir singer.

Watching tennis all my life (since my parents are big tennis fans). Favourites: Nole of course (I also support the rest of the Serbians but specially Jelena), Youzhny, Baghdatis, Gasquet, Moya and support a lot of others. Dislikes: a bunch of already mentioned boring players, Murray and Nadal.

And hello :wavey: to all old/new people here

A good mix of babies and elderly people...also a lot of artistic-type people. Makes sense that the player once referred to as "little Mozart" would have fans who are artistic.

...me?...

I'm Joe, 28, Midwestern US. Religious nut. Amateur Serbophile. Sports statistics enthusiast. My university degree is in Literature, so I'm unemployed.

I'm using this rain-delay to try to get a handle on my RACE spreadsheet. I've gone a bit crazy since I learned how to use Excel.

As I teenage girl I had hot spot for Janko ( I stlil have :secret:) and that's how I have becomemore and more interested in tennis , but real love for game came during RG 2005 when Nadal won first Slam title :inlove:

I am huge fan of all Serbian players and some others non-serbian players Youzhny, Coria, Berdych and some more, but I have very strict list of my favs: Janko before any other player, Novak before any other player, any serbian player before any other player, Nadal before any other player...:lol:
