heaven knows when he will return or retire or what??
tennis is not the same without this great shotmaker-nowadays there are too many baseliners wanting to play too safe or simply a few with good all round all court game.But we need a few players who are always willing to take a few risks with some fantastic shotmaking.
It's my job to put these pathetic Nadull-fanboys in their place. They're the scourge and bane of the tennis world.

yup, he is so lucky to have such a beautiful wife, she performed a role in one of our most extravagent advertisments for property, her acting skills are not that great but her face and body are

Recently I realised how much I miss Paradorn><.
My 2 favs are Hewitt & Paradorn, well Lleyton`s nearly finished but atleast he managed a wonderful 10 yr career! >>Whereas with Srichaphan I just sense a huge missed opportunity><. I thought Paradorn could even win a slam, though realistically a Masters title was within his reach (remember him reaching SFs @ Paris & Miami)..
Paradon was so exciting to watch & he was a huge boost to mens tennis in Asia (esp in Thailand- they made the Bangkok Open due to his popularity)..
BANGKOK (AP)—Former No. 9-ranked Paradorn Srichaphan has denied he is effectively retired from tennis, but has delayed his comeback again.
The 30-year-old Thai hasn’t played on the ATP Tour since March 2007 due to a wrist injury.
“I’m not going to quit. I just want to be back when I’m really ready,” said Paradorn, who had operations on the wrist in Los Angeles in 2007 and Bangkok this year.
He originally planned a return to the circuit last year, then postponed it to his home Thailand Open this September, but now said a 2010 return was just as likely.
“My wrist is getting better but not good enough to let me hit like I used to. I wanted to come back in the Thailand Open but at this stage the chance to play any match this year is 50 percent.”
Despite his long absence from the tour and passing 30 years old, Paradorn still believes he could make a successful return.
“Age is nothing but a number. I have a protected ranking (top 80) and can use it anytime.”
Married to former Miss Universe Natalie Glebova, Paradorn had spent his time away from the tour motorcycling, appearing on a Thai sports TV show and most recently opening an Italian cuisine restaurant, creating the impression that his life after tennis had already begun.
Paradorn was the first player born in Asia to reach the world’s top 10. He won 5 career titles, the last one in Nottingham in 2004.

Good god. Give it a rest with this is Pardorn coming back to play.
He likes to keep his name in the press. He adores the limelight.
He now is going into movies as an actor,,,LOL.
Enjoys racing and spending time with his wife.
The Thais I talked to could not care less about this guy.
They are tired of him, his cockiness,and cheapness(They will never forget he only contributed 10,000b for the tsunami relief)
He had a shining moment for Thai/Asian tennis,but get over it,he has
moved on. I met him several times in Los Angeles from a mutual friend. Nice guy,but his tennis career is over. He is even by US standards,
a millionaire.He just doesn't care anymore and at age 30? Fuggetaboutit.
missing Paradorn.
missing Paradorn.
