French reports that Bubka fell from third floor window this morning whilst trying to get into a room from a window as he was locked in.... Suffered multiple fractures.
Around 7 am Thursday morning, the tennis Ukrainian Sergei Bubka Junior (25 years old, 186th worldwide) dropped the third floor of a building on Avenue de Camoens, in the 16th arrondissement of Paris. He suffered multiple fractures. Rushed to the hospital Georges Pompidou, his prognosis was launched before his condition improved in recent hours. After an evening, the son of the best pole vaulter in history had regained the apartment of one of his friends. He found himself locked in a bathroom and tried to reach the next room through the window. This is where he fell. His prognosis is now more engaged.
I just hope for him he's not in a vegitative state or crippled for life... Falling from the 4th floor is not a simple matter and when I heard his life was in danger at some point I feared a head injury. Sounds a bit better now.
Here's hoping for the best...
it may be a matter of modern/ancient English, but when I was as school 30 years ago, I was taught only UK English and I was taught that "3e étage" in French is said 4th floor in English.
Anyway that's how it is in France :
-- 3e étage
-- 2e étage
-- 1er étage
-- rez-de-chaussée (ground floor, I think, in English)

Press release about the health of Ukrainian team tennis player Sergey Bubka Jr 05 November 2012
November 5, 2012. Kyiv, Ukraine – Ukrainian international tennis player Sergei Bubka Jr. suffered fractures to his leg and arm as a result of an accident in Paris on November 1.
Sergei was taken to Georges Pompidou hospital and underwent surgery the same day. The medical team is fully satisfied with the results of the surgery.
Ukrainian Tennis Federation President, Vadim Shulman, visited Sergei in Paris: "It was a shock to hear about Sergei's accident, but I'm glad to see him do well under the circumstances. I have been visiting with my family the past days and it was wonderful to see Sergei smiling around with my kids. Our tennis federation will support him where needed and we are looking forward to seeing Sergei back on the court as soon as possible."
Sergei Bubka Jr. and his family wish to thank everyone for their messages of support. They are also grateful to the Georges Pompidou hospital staff and doctors for their swift professional help and care.

I am truly blessed by the overwhelming support and good wishes I have been receiving. I sincerely thank the doctors, the tennis family, friends and everyone for their support.

Sergei Bubka Jr., 25, is a professional tennis player, ranked #182 in the ATP World Tour Ranking. He also regularly plays for the Ukrainian National Tennis team in the Davis Cup matches.
Janowicz in Barcelona, Gulbis in Miami, Ljubicic in Dubai, Raonic in Newport, Rosol at Wimbledon, Istomin in Donetsk, Dolgopolov in St Petersburg, Kukushkin (even twice), Soeda in Fergana, Ito in Kyoto
you asked for 10 upsets and i listed a few names known to everyone, yet you keep bitching like Federer for Basel money. We talk about a guy who wanders between 150 and 200 ATP.
Gulbis - CH 21
Janowicz - CH 26
Soeda - CH 47
Kukuhskin - CH 49
Ito - CH 60
Rosol - CH 65 (but he's famous for other reasons, mind Bubka beat him at Wimbledon)
He also beat Robby Ginepri (CH 15), Dudi Sela (CH 29), Steve Darcis (CH 44), Bobby Reynolds (CH 63) Tobias Kamke (CH 64) I am not adding beating Muster in Halle, Muster was an amateur player already.
Errr, a bruised hip and arm and leg fractures are hardly career threatening injuries should he heal well. Would be a different story had he hurt his back.
This is no Thomas Muster. Say bye to any potential for this average player. He can't rely on good media attention or his dad to bail him out of trouble anymore.
LMAO...just so random
Anyway, all the best to Vuvurenka's BF in his road to full recovery
